quote:Originally posted by I'm Not Mister Mxypltk: That's one third of the regular books. His characterization of Lois will contradict the others. The editors are aware of it, but they let it happen because (...for some reason...) they trust Austen. Does this make all three books suck because the characterizations don't coincide?
They must be really wasted, lol.
quote:Yes, it makes a character, but, at least in comics, these characterizations never last forever. These are iconic characters we have here (even Lois). The writers can interpret these icons however they want. They can make good characterizations of their interpretations independently of each other.
Except for the last five years, the characterization had been in constant growth, it wasn't till Berganza took over that things started to lose control and, in some cases, go back to older, outdated guidelines.
quote:Superman/Green Lantern by Gaiman, a little book (maybe you've heard of it) called JLA by Morrison,
Silver Age Fanboy writting.
quote:Superman/Madman by Allred (an homage to the early 90's Superman with a Kirbyesque drawing style)
Alternate version of Superman more akin to the Sa.
quote:and Moore... well, Moore refused to work for DC again, so he can't write Superman... at least not directly.
He has to write knock offs.
Do you want to laugh you ass off about what another writer thinks of a Moore knock off? Go read the Veith interview about the new Question series.
quote:All right. Now, what was the point of that...? I was just saying how I enjoy the Modern Age more than the Silver Age because of these guys. I never said that it's because of the work on Superman they've done (Gaiman because of Sandman, Allred because of Madman, Morrison because of Animalman and Moore because of... most of his work).
