Ultimately Off-Topic VI: Another Star Trek Reference

[Plawsky]

Plawsky, i think we can both safely say that after 5 years of ongoing Batman story telling in today's generation has proved Grant Morrison more popular,

Again, based on what? Sure, Morrison's the biggest Bat-writer in the past several years, but that doesn't make him more popular overall. Hell, Scott Snyder's Batman has been very well liked so far, so he's got a chance to take that title if he stays on the book for a few years. And it's outselling Action Comics, so I'd say that says something for his current popularity.

and it will only continue to grow there as today's internet people and comic culture also pin point how flawed and downright stolen the stories from Jeph Loeb are, yes they are now considered extreme popular, but i have faith in my Batman fans,

The Long Halloween is over 15 years old. How long does it take to realize something isn't good? It's not some new book that people are hailing because of immense hype; this is a book that has been read and read again. It wouldn't make its way to the top of so many lists if people didn't really like it.

Dennis O'Neill has left far longer lasting legacies to the Batman universe than Loeb has, but Loeb's few stories have been collected in superior formats is something i'd say, but the lasting effect Neill has had on Batman will always triumph longer.

Again, that has nothing to do with what I said. Their influence on the character isn't in question here. I'm not even discussing the quality of their writing. I'm merely pointing out that Jeph Loeb is easily one of the most popular and critically acclaimed Batman writers of all time. To say that he isn't just because of your personal preference is absurd.

Oh c'mon Plawsky! IT WAS SUPPOSE TO BE ZAPPY TIME! ZAPPY TIME!

Fear not, Drz. One day...one day...my time will come.

So there I was ready to post a giant scathing post about DC's handle on Superman when I read Action Comics #9. I don't have a lot of time to get into all of the subtext (it would literally take hours upon hours), but in short...



Bravo Grant, bravo!

Another Star Trek Reference? This is the best you guys can come up with in my absence?

You know ... we could have given recognition to the Avengers movie. Ultimately Off-Topic VI: Earth's Mightiest Posters.

Or go for a Star Wars reference.

Ultimately Off-topic VI: Return of the Jerdi :D

Anyway, this name is leaving me cold. Sounds like something Mel Blanc would have come up with.

Hey Jer, what did you think of Action Comics #9?

Shouldn't' there be a poll or something with all the suggestions. It is a democracy after all.

Wyo, remember when we were trying to get one of the threads to be called Wyokid and The Crimson?
