Earlier today, The Daily Beast mistakenly published its review of James Gunn’s Superman—five days ahead of the official embargo lift.

      I don’t know, it’s hard to be optimistic with high budget movies these days.

        Oh I was implying it would be terrible. Superman is the most boring character ever put to paper in my opinion. But I don’t even like superheroes much.

          Supes is definitely a product of a different era, but he’s also pretty iconic. It’s hard to not want to try a Superman project.

          But like you say, it’s damned hard to get it right.

          Some properties are so iconic it’s almost impossible to touch them, but they just did a Mickey Mouse graphic novel that was stunning, when was the last time anyone could say that about Mickey Mouse?

          I heavily disagree, I love almost all of the Superman comics I’ve read. But I don’t trust DC to make a good movie, especially at this point in the genre’s lifespan.

A place to discuss comic books of all types, from old to new, Big 2 to indie, and everything in between.

Floppies, graphic novels, compilations, omnibusses (omnibusi?) are all fair game.

There is only one rule:*

Comic Books is a no judgement zone.

You can talk all you want about how Rob Liefeld is trash, Bob Kane is an asshole, or Frank Miller and Dave Sim’s politics have made them toxic, that’s all good.

If, however, another user is LEGITIMATELY a fan of something you don’t like, that does NOT make them a lesser person. Attack the art for being bad, not the person for being a fan of bad art.

* I lied. There are TWO rules… No piracy. Cover shots? That’s good. Interior pages, in moderation? Sure. Full books? Links to pirate sites? That’s how we get things shut down. :(

I’m not saying it’s been a problem, because it hasn’t been.
