WOW, I just finished issue 16 of Immortal Iron Fist.

That ending... damn.

Breyfogle, man, I just love him. This page is just one small fight between Batman and some thugs.



It's just so good. I don't think we get enough of this nowadays.

The end of the issue was really sad though. It was an issue about trash, the son of a trash man was writing an article about how trash will eventually cover the world if something isn't done about it. There's some other trash company trying to muscle the kid's dad out of doing his job, and the boss and his goons are in the dump when the father comes to drop off the trash and they try to kill him and then the kid, who was hiding on top of the truck without his father knowing, jumped up and shouted not to kill his dad, and one of the guys got startled and shot the kid. Batman shows up, fights the thugs, gets knocked over and then kicks one of them, who then falls into the other guy, and they both stumble into the back of the trash truck, with its grinders going, so they die. Which horrified Batman, which was made worse by the dad crying over his DEAD 13 YEAR OLD SON.

Yeah, sad stuff. Great issue.

So I just learned that after Grant and Breyfogle leave Detective Comics, they just move over to Batman and continue! Hells yeah.

Why do all the guys look like they're pouting?

--

Because David Finch draws ANGRY PEOPLE

Everyone in that picture is just Batman changing costumes.

Except Wonder Woman.

http://img.imgcake.com/1312163320349pngag.png

Not even angry, just pouting.

Probably because they have to wear pants still.

I knew something was missing.

Based on that and the pouting faces and the fat Superman, I can easily jump on the f*** Finch train just from this cover alone.

~Halo Rolling around at the speed of sound.

Diana also kind of looks 16

This is the definition of a cover that looks great until you actually look at it.

--
~LtM
http://img.imgcake.com/1312163320349pngag.png

I instantly thought it looked pretty bad.

So for me it's the definition of a cover that looks bad until you actually look at it and realize that it's even worse.

That second to last panel was the look on my face while looking at that.

If you are reading this, either you're looking at my profile, I'm posting from my Droid, or GameFox is broken again..

SUPERMAN SPOILERS

-opens with some dark skinned minority choking Lois. Superman shows up in like 2 seconds, and it's all like "look how fast he got there." I get it, Superman is fast.
-he burns the minority woman's arm and she lets Lois go. Superman flies Lois to the outskirts of Metropolis
-he goes back and tries to find evil Minority Woman and she flies out of nowhere and punches superman really hard. "I felt that," he remarked. If she's strong enough to hurt Superman, why did she flinch when he used a tiny bit of heat vision that was meant to just make a human winch? shouldn't she be super invlunerable?
-she goes on to talk about how she is SUPERMAN'S SHADOW BLAH BLAH I AM ALL YOUR FEEEEAR (ITSELF)
-superman kicks her and goes "UNF! WHAT YOU ARE IS ANNOYING." I read it like he's saying it in a teen girl voice and it sounds better
-she laser visions his hand and superman is like AHHH HOW ARE YOU SO STRONG STOP THAT
-she starts saying I AM FROM EARTH! THIS IS MY HOME! then she makes superman fly away with her so they dont hurt anyone.
-Superman yells OPEN THE LIGHTNING DOOR (what) and it warps them to what appears to be either limbo or the artist not wanting to draw a background

-her origin is that she touched a Kryptonian Sunstone at the same time Superman was passing by during his "Sad Superman Walk Across America." Wtf? Is this a real thing? Also, it shows him walking by COMPLETELY ALONE. wouldn't he have followers like Forrest Gump or at least media coverage?
-the stone projected all of superman's evil "you should just let go and take over the world" thoughts into her head and she became evil (ok...)
-she apparently has been ****ing with his mind for the past few issues, making his dreams scary and making him fight shadows that weren't there. I imagine this isn't a satisfying reveal to people who have been reading this.
-apparently she superman hear someone say "you are a gun" when they are really saying "you are our hero." I think I remember this. I feel like that's a bull**** retcon or something.

-superman goes "lol i am not even depressed anymore," grabs the stone, thinks of really happy thoughts, yells EXPECTO PATRONUM and the stone blows up.
-he gives some motivational speech to her about how there must always be a superman even though she's unconscious.
-goes home, makes out with lois, cheesy dialogue,
-montage of superman chilling with other heroes like Steel and... a girl in the Blue Superman outfit? the hell? what is this
-OH HE IS GIVING THEM SUPER WATCHES
--he gives them to Super-Chief, Steel, Iron Munro, Livewire, Superboy and Supergirl and...
-THIS WAS ALL A DOCUMENTARY MADE BY PEOPLE IN THE FUTURE
-ALL THE TVS IN THE FUTURE ARE SHAPED LIKE A SUPERMAN LOGO
-the people who are watching are the SUPERMAN SQUAD of the future. they're all teens in superman outfits that look like they were mad ein DC Universe Online's character creation system
-old DC universe future canon: fragments of sunstone fall to earth and lots of people get superman powers and his ideals, world is now a better place.
-also shows that crazy minority woman reformed and became a new superwoman
-wow
-ends with superman flying and carrying lois. he winks kinda like "I am getting laid awww yeah" before THE eND

I can't even blame Chris Robinson for this s***. He just worked with what JMS gave him.

Dear God almighty, I don't ask for much. I try to stand on my own two feet my whole life and don't accept hand-outs. But please, for the children's sake, could you write some good stories in Action Comics come September? Thanks, you bald-headed stud.
