Quote: I'm Not Mister Mxypltk said: And you just responded the first part of my post with something you've already told me before and ignored the important part. You think he should be the last Kryptonian, I think it depends. That's clear, I'm not gonna change your opinion about that and you're not gonna change mine. The second part of my post was the important part, so obviously you ignored...
If you think that then the concept of a planet exploding and killing everyone on it except for a baby is clearly over your head...
Quote: They never had a series for themselves at the same time. In fact, I don't think Earth 3 Superman ever had much spotlight..
Sure he didn't, he only had his own series (or was it a mini? I'm not sure).
Quote: It will if it's not done correctly. In the Dominus saga we got a bunch of enjoyable stories, until they started mixing and it became lame. It's obvious that Dominus was created as an excuse to make those stories
You do understand that Superman splitting into different versions was a story arc and never intended to be permanent, right? It was a homage to those four different eras, nothing more.
Quote: Man of Steel takes old stuff too, like I mentioned. It was the whole point of my message, I think..
It took what worked, it left out what didn't.
BR does the opposite, it takes what didn't work and brings it back.
The idea of Superman being like a God who came from a futuristic Earth didn't work, if it had then that's what they would have done in the movie and John Byrne wouldn't have been allowed to change it.
The fact that the movie did change it and so did Byrne makes it clear that this idea doesn't work.
Quote: IS THAT FUCKING SO? Please ellaborate on that. How those elements make me whine. I haven't been whining for years. I've thought the comics were lame since 1998 (when I was reading the stuff from 1997), and unreadable since 2000 (when I got the first taste of the stuff from 1999), but I've only expressed my opinions about this since you came to this board. But then again, you're never wrong and you know everything about me, so I must be wrong.
If that were at all true, in any way, we would have never gotten into any kind of argument at all.
The fact that we do says different...
The fact that you think that Superman should be surrounded by more Kryptonians gives off the impression that you prefer the outdated Silver Age notion of the character, which is EXACTLY what we've been getting since 99...
Quote: GASP! Different than Man of Steel?! SINNER!
If a real Crisis happens before then (and not a hack job like this year) then I see no reason for MoS to keep going, not if the characterS origins get retold from the start.
I would expect things to be different, not the same old crap that only a 70 year old, toothless Mark Waid or a 50 year old KKK might enjoy...
Quote: The way you interpret things isn't automatically the truth, you know.
Sure it doesn't... BR is really the best story EVER and nothing on it is in any way derivative of what came before
Oh, and Alan Moore changed Supreme into Batman, not Superman, I just interpretated it that way
Comics are like a Rorschach test; everyone has a different opinion on what they are and can be...
