Cosmic Odyssey

[shankie]

I have this thing for Mignola's artwork.

Something about the barrel-shaped torso really works for guys like Darkseid. But, this isn't about Darkseid; it's about what J'onn and John Stewart are doing in the meantime.



Anti-life bombs are ready to go off, and John thinks he can stop this one all by himself. He's wrong. And J'onn isn't very pleased with him.

























It's certainly not often that superheroes threaten suicide. It makes me like John more, actually.

Batman's adventures with Forager and Etrigan's relationship with Jason Blood pretty much steal the show of this book, otherwise.

I read this once and totally hated it, but a re-read proved I was wrong. It's actually pretty good.

I really like it that J'onn is all, "Me? .... (groan) all right." I have visions of him stomping off-camera like a three year old, off to provoke a suicidal superhero into reclaiming his life.

He's kinda like the League's stoic grandfather, isn't he? XD

Not always nice, but he's always right... and deep down, he's got everybody's best interests at heart. :D

I know it would ruined the effect but I wanted them to hug.

Well, it's fun to think that they did later. In a manly fashion. :D

I did the same thing on Earth... but I only leveled one city there

Oh John, just listen to yourself.

Those scans were a good time though.

Lanterns always seem to be the... morally gray ones. And yet somehow so hardline?

::realizes I started this reply like, an hour ago and totally forgot::

Jeeze.

Anyway, yeah. They'd have to be pretty understanding of collateral damage. Letting Guy Gardner in and all.
