Before I get started Vinversary is trademarked and copyrighted IcarusFlies. Seriously, she should make that a real word.
Well, I've been on here for two years. You probably know me here for being a huge fan of Dr, Who, and the Pipettes, but I've done other things too. Yep. i may not be the most active user, but i've managed to get almost 8,000 points, and i just got my 1,000th forum post yesterday. I have over 100 followers, and I'm thankful for everyone who has been so nice here.(especially the Doctor Who fans!). Now as a special present, you get my thoughts on the DC revamp.
Which starts off with the question, Why? i don't really been to be b!tchy and whiny about it, but that's how I feel. DC was going real good up until now. Power Girl, Zatanna,, they has some great books out. I think my personal biggest concern is the costumes. First, we have the "All Female Heroes will wear pants". I'm really not opposed to that, I'm not. However, the moment I saw Harley Quinn looking like a washed up prostitute, I went crazy. Despite what my username says, Harley is not my favorite character. Still, I don't like seeing her portrayed this way. Of course, Supergirl isn;t wearing pants either. if only DC would have kept their word. Then, we have the decision to put Babs back in the Batgirl cowl. I want to say I think this was a good decision, but Barbara was a great character as Oracle, showing that she could still kick a$$ even in a wheelchair. We also have the introduction of the Vertigo and Wilstorm characters into the DCU proper. Since i'm not the biggest fan of either of these universes, I doesn't affect me. However, gen13(my favorite Wildstorm book) wasn't there. Oh well. I'm still mad that my favorite DC books(Power Girl , Zatanna) weren;t included in the list of 52, but you can't win them all. So out of all the rebooted titles, I'll be getting the following.
Wonder Woman
Batman
Supergirl
Batwoman
Catwoman
Green Lantern: The New Guardians
Fury of Firestorm
Swamp Thing
Stormwatch
Maybe JLa, maybe.
(Yep no Birds of Prey, i'm still shocked)
So heres to another 2 years on the vine!
