more DC reboot news...

[meowminx]

Some Batman news here. Looks like Bruce is the only Batman and Robin is... Damian! I wonder if he'll still be Talia's kid.

Also:

Batgirl cover (no more Oracle?)
Nightwing cover (looks more like Dick than Jason to me...)
Catwoman cover (yay!)

Discuss/rant/etc?

Unsure about that purple in Bab's cape
but I always liked her costume best of all the batgirls so I'll take it over the giant thigh pouches

That Batgirl cover had better be a fakeout. It had BETTER.

[professorlionface]

if that is babs then fuck everything
fuck. everything.

also that nightwing design is miserable and i'd rather damian be his sidekick instead

GRUMPIN LIKE A GRUMPY GRUMP EXPERT WHO IS GRUMPY

I actually didn't notice the purple. I was too busy being weirded out by her face. Not AH's best.

/looks at this flashpoint map



... Why is the entire continent of DC Africa controlled by Gorillas

This makes me even more convinced Charlie is just going to cease to exist.

But now I'm rather worried about Tim too. And Steph and Cass.

It's extra scary grumpy with that icon.

Although I don't mind the Nightwing costume so much. He's ribbed for our pleasure!

[professorlionface]

tim is the specialest snowflake in the batfam
you won't need to worry about him

Because everything in Flashpoint is screwed up?

[professorlionface]

but i liked the blue so much
f i n g e r s t r i p e s :c

I'm so happy Damian exists. And now he's Robin to his dad's Batman.

...I bet Damian's the one who rebooted the whole universe.

[professorlionface]

and asia is a single country and just a lot of gross gross gross

[meowminx.livejournal.com]

Awww.

...I will just quietly mourn my Dick and Damian duo...

although I will say that I thought it would be worse
I guess I'll reserve final judgment until I see where the girls are ending up

[olesia]

so much gross i didn't even notice north africa and most of europe were flat out GONE because I was too busy side-eying that shit

[noelleno.livejournal.com]

ia i loved the fingerstripes

[noelleno.livejournal.com]

is she getting de-aged too so "girl" doesn't seem like such a weird title for her?

[lyntergalactic]

that's it. i give up on hoping any of this will be any good at all.

especially if that really is babs.

[meowminx.livejournal.com]

Oh yikes. Just saw the map.

[xuffasch]

i will forever mourn the fingerstripes

[meowminx.livejournal.com]

No idea! They haven't even announced it yet so it's not even confirmed it's Babs.

[emeralddarkness.livejournal.com]

So Ravanger is back a...pparently? And Babs is suddenly 10 years younger again.

Oh.

Why is Dick wearing his evil costume anyway. Wouldn't that be bad to relaunch a series with?

[foreverbouncing.livejournal.com]

*stares at the map for a while*

...

I think I give up.

Selina, that is not a smart or responsible way to play with diamonds. You're just letting them fall off the side of the building. You're ridiculous.

My only real thought on this is that I'm a bit bummed they're breaking up Big D and Little D, but the rest... *shrug*
