The wings are stupid, which I think even the creative team agrees with. But ugh, all the straps and pouches and the stupid red design thing on his costume? No. The costume is pretty rough.

There was a cool redesign posted a few weeks ago that I liked.

@htb106: The name change isn't really what's at issue. The fact that he started as Red Robin, does take away from his character development because he didn't graduate to the role. But the new origin takes away Tim as the hope that inspired Batman, it takes away his detective skills which was always a large part of his character since he wanted to succeed Batman as the World's Greatest Detective. Tim used to be smart and careful and compassionate. Now he's a selfish tool who stole from the penguin to prove himself. It's not just the name change, it's the fact that there's a new character parading around pretending to Tim Drake. If you were a "huge Tim Drake fan" you'd understand.

Actually a pretty good start! The perspective on the knee is pretty well done for a more complicated pose. If you would like any areas to work on, The arms are a little stiff and the stomach gets a little flat and loses the volume that you have in the legs. The hands are actually pretty good and the whole body is proportionate. Nice to see breasts that don't look like balloons stuffed into spandex

Who said she wouldn't show up?

They've been saying that they wouldn't reference the Superman/Wonder Woman romance in either Superman or Wonder Woman's titles. If WW shows up here I doubt they're suddenly going to ignore the fact that they kissed each other, right?

But wouldn't it be great if they did?

Lot of cool work!

I usually just don't like Peter Nguyen that much, I think all of his figures are a little too thin and stiff but I really like that Kid Flash!

Love Chris Gs stuff and Daniel HDR's Kyle Rayner. Mike Walsh's work is really bold :) I like Mahmud Asrar's style.

Denis Medri's Batman Beyond looks AWESOME!

Phil Noto's work is swoon-worthy.

Tan's stuff is a little bus for me but that's a pretty intense Etrigan!

Booth's work is not my favorite but that's a pretty decent Shazam.

I have an art crush on Mike McKone. It's so beautiful.

Those Spider-Man vs Zombies are fun too!

I prefer all the pre-DCnU versions of these characters much better. IMHO, short of another crisis,I'm not sure this can be fixed. It's just too broken...

I want a better writer/artist, old personalities, and this roster again.

UGH YES!

What Teen Titans need is a good story.

And This.

So let's get some of these old members back whilst ditching these fail characters (Bunker and Skitter) and revert Solstice back to the way she was pre-52.

It's very sad that Lobdell's run is selling so well. It simply is not very good.

Seriously, what does Bunker do that makes him so flamboyant? I say it is all in the mind of the reader.

Yeah I agree. As for bunker:

I think these images speak for themselves. #stereotyped

@darth_jones: I didn't say it was good looks like a pile of you know what. But the scene is just like when Leo Quintum was giving Superman his diagnosis. Displaying Superman's strength, the female character touching his forehead like the sensitive Agatha. Even the the line They will Join you in the Sun. Like All Star Superman none of the skill in fact it makes me not want to read.

Ohh ok! Phew!

Reads very much like All Star Superman.

...What? Literally just no. No. Are you kidding me? All Star Superman is a masterpiece.

I don't know what "All Star Superman" you read, but it is NOTHING like these scans up here. I don't think the All Star Superman I read had Clark acting like a dumb jock saying "Seriously?! That's awesome!" or "Man, I have to fly" or having awkward sexual interactions with some random lady. The dialogue here is excessive and childish. All Star Superman uses about half the dialogue and still pumps more heart and passion into it's panels.

Edit: I'm not saying that you can't like Lobdell's work. Not my personal cup of tea, but if you like, that's more than fine. But it's nothing like All Star Superman. That's just blasphemy.
