okay so what if the reason that the joker continues to get crazy is because Harley Quinn is teasing out his dissasociative personality disorder every time they get together
Saw the Killing Joke with some friends. I have not read the original graphic novel but I found it very flat. Did not feel like it sold the emotional/psychological tension well at all.
Who is the lad that hangs out w aquaman and has kind of a daft punk scuba guy vibe going on
are you talking about Black Manta?
yes thatās him lol. sorry i donāt know much about dc and had only ever seen the character in the new fighting games and the flashpoint movie, so i didnt realize he was supposed to be a villain instead of a pal to aquaman
anyway, cool design
since gorblax doesnāt post here anymore I will do my best to answer any and all dc questions that come my way
what nerw DC are you reading?
I love that thanks to Injusticeās character designs a dude who looks so much like a clear cut bad guy on Superfriends now could pass as a teen sidekick.
in defense of the dc murderpunch-verse, my impression that black manta was good was mostly based on the flashpoint cartoon, where everyoneās alignment and allegiances are deliberately fucked up anyway. i dunno why i assumed that he and aquaman being buds was regular canon.
but because of it i invented a whole imaginary legend about how the guy was a human atlantis weeaboo who spent his whole life designing a special suit so he could live among his idols
thatās a much better backstory imo

Iāve been trying to get into the new Doom Patrol. Thereās so much going on at once thought itās hard to keep track. I never read any Doom Patrol before, so I might be out of the loop on these characters.
read the grant morrison run on doom patrol, and the run right after by rachel pollack

I might be wrong but by the first issue this doom patrol feels like a different thing. IDK it didnāt grab me.
Do you guys read anything from Marvel? I have been enjoying Infamous Iron Man and Unbeatable Squirrel Girl.
