You know... this is fast becoming one of my favorite books. the issues number one had aside (and actually one of the moments in issue 1 does actually seem to have reprocussions in this issue, still don't like that scene however). I have actually really been enjoying this book. this issue seems to focus on Starfire.

Rocafort's art is getting better too. at least where starfire is concerned she looks fierce!... still don't know how the hell that stays on though...

preview from Ifanboy.com http://ifanboy.com/articles/exclusive-preview-red-hood-and-the-outlaws-4/







I love Star's "Oh hell no!" look here



Love her similar "Bitch Please" look here? (is this an appropriate comment? i'm speaking fabulous not derogotory here...

i even made it into an Icon



Two versions!

I love that Crux's talking about his humanity while he's green, just flew over with his big ol' leathery wings, and has lizardlike skin.

You'd think he'd've bought a suit of power armor, like all the other genetic baselines with hateboners, if he cared about his point so much.

This makes me wonder what the temperature is like on Tamaran if Kori is able to fight in below zero weather in a bikini and not succumb to hypothermia. Then again, the same can be said about normal human characters who fight on mountainous regions wearing clothes appropriate for summer.

I mean, as I recall Tamaran's pretty tropical. But then, Tamaraneans are solar-powered humanoid sphynxes with what may or may not be compound eyes and jet hair, so, I don't know, I guess we'll just pretend that her amnesia has also included comfy sweaters.

In early NTT Kory commented that Tamaran was further from it's sun than the Earth and she enjoyed the increased heat of Earth, but this was later retconned to conform with Taraman being a tropical paradise rather warmer than the Northern USA.

Starfire being super hot - lots of ass-thrusting poses here
thinking about how hot she is
and how she is a "princess" drawn to the "court jesters"

It's still too much "15 year old sex fantasy" for me to enjoy seriously.

"thinking about how hot she is"

Where do you see that? The closest thing I can think of is her saying that if she was on the ground she would get a lot of attention from humans, but I think it's more likely that it had to do with her having orange skin and her hair occasionally turning into fire.

I will say this. My DCUO/tabletop RPG Tamaranean girl wears something that's Starfire-esque, but rather more complete... though she keeps the top unzipped to the navel. Her answer when I asked how the "girls" stay tucked away is "lots and lots of double-sided tape."

I like the fact the Kori says there aren't many xenophobes around. I'd prefer if that was the case but one of the things the DCnU writers seem to be having trouble deciding is how bigoted the average citizen is.

Apropos of nothing, her outfit is really distracting to me...and not in the way intended. The whole design of it is just so....weird. There are shoulder coverings and the apparently federally-mandated 'new 52 collar' is in attendance, but then stripper clothes until the weird baggy legging things. They're just so ODD to me. It's like she fell in love with the movie Flashdance, but also wanted armor or something.

I suppose it's neither here nor there, anywho. This title has settled in to a respectable sales number for a title, at least pre-DCnu. The third issue sold around 45,000 copies, which was a decent number, I guess. Not for me, but I'm glad to see it appears to be improving.

What's weird to me is that her top and thong don't seem to have any substance - it's like they're painted on to her. That's a stark contrast to the out-of-place collar thing and the inexplicably chunky boots.

You know I really want to like this book...


But it just keeps getting more and more frustrating when it could be so damn good. And now we have the sexy princess ogling the "court jesters" which is really not an inverted trope at all, it's the same trope over and over - hot girl likes the geek, yeah nerdy guys have a chance!

And why is her inner monologue so focused on them and her looks? I mean. Come on, Lobdell. Why isn't she thinking, "I have a better advantage up here because I can see everything" instead of essentially "humans think I'm SOOO HOT and I can't be down there with them because they would ogle me!"

You know, women think about a hell of a lot of things throughout the day that don't have to do with "I'm so hot" and "tee hee those boys." (That's not to say I didn't walk through my school campus and think, 'damn, he's hot, oh he's hot, he's hot...' but those weren't the entirety of my thoughts). This Kori has had a couple of good moments (particularly last issue with the flashback), but for the most part, she's being written as an incredibly shallow character -- that is to say, we're four issues in and so far, she has very little depth to her. (And simply because she is strong and kicks a monster's butt doesn't necessarily mean she has character depth)

On top of all of that, there's also the incredibly problematic aspect of making a black man a giant green monster (not to mention this is the second character of colour he's made into a grotesque and/or monster-like being -- the other being Skitter) Lobdell, what were you thinking?!?!
