Not Black Condor! They can't kill Black Condor! (I thought Black Condor was a made-up character for that Superman story where Mr Myxythingie switched everybody's genders...)

So, how long does it take to make one of these?

I think I started this one Saturday or Sunday night. It took longer than it ought to have because I was out of action all day yesterday, with the falling over.

Wow, neat! Well, not neat for the falling over, but neat for the time it takes to make one of this here things. I think they are super keen, just like you. :)

I should draw more. There are things I want to draw. But I am Irrationally Intimidated, so I never draw, thus get Intimidated again by how long it takes to draw things because I don't draw.

It would probably make more sense if I was actually reading current DC comics, wouldn't it? But it's still pretty funny as is. :D

Here ya go:

Preview of upcoming "event" storyline, reprinted everywhere in the last few weeks, makes me want to kill, etc.

Oh dear. When did Batman and Superman get so high and mighty?

[I still don't know exactly what Diana did that made "everyone" scared of her (cyborg millionaire reference --> *whoosh*). Woe.]

[annlarimer.livejournal.com]

What with one plot contrivance and another, she ended up killing Maxwell Lord (majordomo of the Justice League International in the 80s, when it was, y'know, good) to save Superman's life.

[ymfaery]

So because she did it once in a rather extreme situation (I assume), she's a murderer and will flip out at the next opportunity? What a bunch of wankers.

There's all kinds of bogus "edgy" bullshit going on, leading to the upcoming implosion. Apparently DC's strategy is to irritate the fuck out of their readers, so that the next reboot will be seen as a blessing rather than an annoyance.

[ymfaery]

That's assuming they'll still *have* readers around for the next reboot.
