Solomon Grundy and Bizzaro were friends? I don't really see either of them having much in common besides their low levels of intelligence.

[crinos]

And the fact they're both pasty skinned quasi living super strong ghouls.

Me am sad to be Grundy's enemy! We have so much in common!

Something like that.

[galateus]

It actually got posted here a while back.

[yaseen101]

I totally ship those two.

[kintotech]

Interesting how Bizarro confuses the Black Lantern Vision.

[buttler]

That's totally my favorite part.

[starwolf_oakley]

So, Bizzaro is so mixed up he keeps switching emotions before the Black Lantern Ring can fully finish describing them? Neat.

There doesn't seem to be a corresponding lantern color for confusion, although fear might be closest. Curiosity would be equal to will, I believe.

[lieut_kettch]

What about Batzarro? Him am alive too, I forget. Him am not become Black Lantern?

[thokstar]

You're assuming a Black Lantern ring could download Batzarro's memories without breaking.

[sherkahn]

it's comics. Stranger things have happened.

[majingojira]

it's comics. Stranger stupider things have happened.

Fixed for you.

[silverzeo]

What, won't Bizarro's heart DRAIN the BL's power? Or is Grundy doing this for the sheer fun of it, like Veegta blowing up Nappa in TFS DragonballZAbridged?

[tanetris]

Purple for rage? Really, colorist? Really?

[stig]

Rage =/= Love, therefore when Bizarro feels angry it shows up as love. I suppose the rings get confused.

[jlroberson]

And in other cases, magenta for purple. (see the Star Sapphires till very recently)

[theanswer]

Bizarro confuses the rings abilities to read emotion.

[jlroberson]

That or the colorist got confused by the mention of "love."

[tanetris]

I considered that, but it's the ring that's seeing the color and the ring that's declaring "Rage."

I'd be more willing to give the benefit of the doubt if the Blackest Night crossovers didn't continually flub the colors. Or if the text-bubble said instead "...Rage?" I'd be laughing like crazy.

DON'T STOP HITTING BIZARRO!!! ME LOVE YOU!

Uh...I think I'm going to have to start shipping these two.

(and yes, I can translate Bizarro-speech. That doesn't take away from the hilarity.)

[iskander]

I hate the idea of Grundy as the whiteHulk...............

[zordboy]

I enjoyed this more than I thought I would.

Mostly because the story was cool, but it also came with one of the promotional rings. I know own three of the eight.

[kingrockwell]

What was it supposed to be? I didn't get mine (stopped caring after i got indigo, that's all i wanted).

[zordboy]

I'm not sure. I have to buy my comics from my LCS online and have them mailed to me. I bought the Booster Gold BN tie-in, and this Superman/Batman tie-in. The two rings I got were Indigo and Orange (and I already had Black from when I bought BN#2 earlier in the year).

I'm assuming that the JLA tie-in is out next-week, hopefully another colour will come with that.

(the pain of it is, in pure Orange-ring mode, I'd love to have the full set of eight, but I'm not prepared to buy a heap of comics I don't really want. I preordered a set of all 8 from a seller on eBay, which I figure will turn up in December. Which is why I was so pleasantly surprised to find Orange and Indigo in the mail this morning)

[kingrockwell]

Huh, Indigo was supposed to come with REBELS #10 last week, it was the only comic I bought explicitly for the ring, though it turned out nice enough I might have to stick around for the rest of the series.

From the looks of it, Superman/Batman actually wasn't supposed to be a ring tie-in, though Outsiders this week had Violet and Adventure Comics had Blue. But yeah, the Red ring's supposed to come with JLA.

In all honesty, in pure Indigo-ring mode, I'm prolly giving away any other rings I get (which'll prolly just be Orange and Green, i'm pretty stubborn when it comes to not reading tie-ins i don't care about)

[zordboy]

Heh.

So, if you're forcing yourself to buy comics you don't really want just to get yourself one of the promotional rings, would that be Green-ring mode? Since it's an act of willpower?

Wow. These things are so metatextual :).

[kingrockwell]

Or the obvious Orange.
Or Blue! You're hoping the tie-ins will be worth it!

[zordboy]

Hah! ^_^

(of course, if you're really loving a book anyway, and the ring is just an added bonus, you'd be in Violet territory. I'm such a JLA fan that that'd probably be Violet-ring-mode)

[kingrockwell]

Oh, Bizarro. You're the greatest.
please don't stay dead forever :(

[naebler]

I'm confused. I thought Alan Scott and Phantom Stranger were working to keep Solomon from becoming part of Blackest Night?

[mcity]

I think y'all have corrupted me. My first thought was "Aw, they're kissing."

[psychopathicus_rex]

So Superman/Batman is now starring Bizarro and Man-Bat?
...
That would be awesome, actually, if it weren't so obviously temporary. Hopefully, they'll have another team-up under better circumstances.
Oh, Bizarro, please don't be dead. I know they'll just create another version of you, but I LIKE this version.

[thirdblindmouse]

"Me am Bizarro! Me always stop not reversing the meaninglessness of carefully chosen words, making sentences perfectly comprehensible!" Don't go away, Bizarro. Don't go away, now.

[3goodtimes]

*weeps* Poor Bizarro.
