Superman/Batman, Trinity, JLA, Final Crisis

[3goodtimes.insanejournal.com]

An itty bitty alternate universe version of the JLA shows up in the batcave to traumatize Alfred in Superman/Batman #51.

Tiny!Batman is disgruntled. Big!Batman looks disturbed by the adorable fuzzy-floaty bats.

Tim is horrible with women, even when they're roughly the size of chihuahuas. Tiny!Flash makes a penis joke.


In Superman/Batman #52, the Tiny!JLA watch Tiny Titans on TV! Tiny!Batman needs a Batnap because he's grouchy. Big!Batman is not more mature.


Speaking of weird shit, check out this gorilla-vs-Robins fight from Trinity #10.



Tim fails again at being a lady's man.

To be fair Dick, just because you'd seduce and marry anyone including a giant gorilla in a metal corset doesn't mean Tim has to.

In other news, Bruce is half-naked and sweaty in Diana's lap in JLA #70 due to some time warp fever or something.

I have no idea what happened to Diana's face in the last panel.

Apparently, when Batman gets time-warp fever he seduces Wonder Woman then performs monologues about death for Green Lantern and has vaguely pumpkin-shaped biceps. See? It's all right here in JLA #73.

What a stubbly, stubbly badass.

In a random twist, this post ends with a Final Crisis, Star Trek: Wrath of Khan kiss between Ollie and Dinah.

I enjoy Oliver's facial expression in that last panel. I like to pretend The Flash just waltzed in naked smothered in marmalade wearing a giant, purple pimp hat.

"I enjoy Oliver's facial expression in that last panel. I like to pretend The Flash just waltzed in naked smothered in marmalade wearing a giant, purple pimp hat."

Neighbor just came by and asked if everything was ok, I laughed so hard.

"Oh, shit Ollie, thought that was Hal. What are you doing here?"

[3goodtimes.insanejournal.com]

Oh yes, Hal so has that fetish. A fetish for naked Flash in funny hats and condiments, hahaha.

[toasty_fresh.insanejournal.com]

No! You didn't post the panel when the gorilla complements Nightwing's bum!

better?

[darkknightjrk.insanejournal.com]

Since I'm sure half the comments will be squeeing over Tiny!JLA, I'll go with less obvious.

That moment with Ollie and Dinah? Best moment with those two since this whole marriage debacle, bar none.

[3goodtimes.insanejournal.com]

Agreed. And beautifully drawn to boot!

"Death is powerless against you if you do your job."

"What if Black Hand uses your skull to summon a bunch Black Lanterns and revive Nekron?"

"Powerless!"

Omg tiny!Vixen is adorable!

[megami.insanejournal.com]

Ahh, Dick's bum. I think Dick's bottom should have it's own series. It could be called "Adventures of an Ass."

Oy. I can't believe I just wrote that.

[3goodtimes.insanejournal.com]

"Adventure's of Dick's Ass" sounds more classy.

And I agree.

[parsimonia.insanejournal.com]

I can't help but find that last scene kind of saccharine. Except then Ollie just stares at her. Way to leave Dinah hanging there, Ollie.

I like to pretend The Flash just waltzed in naked smothered in marmalade wearing a giant, purple pimp hat.

That would have infinitely improved Final Crisis.

[3goodtimes.insanejournal.com]

It's very saccharine, but my ovaries enjoy a bit of sap now and then.

And yes, it would have. But then again, most things would be an improvement on Final Crisis.

Wait...

[silverzeo.insanejournal.com]

The last panel on the last page of the JLA scan... is that... is that Homer Simpson climbing the dome?

Re: Wait...

[psychop_rex.insanejournal.com]

...what? I see something that might be a small figure climbing the dome, but I can't make out anything that resembles Homer Simpson.

[cmdr_zoom.insanejournal.com]

The chibi JLA are adorable, of course (and I love me the Albuquerque art, always) but I have to note the utter badassness of Bruce's line about his father, the doctor. 'Cause it's true.

[divi_d.insanejournal.com]

Well, Alfred's a jerk... he never even answered Chibi-Kara's question!

[yaseen101.insanejournal.com]

I have to say that, one of the few good things about Final Crisis was, that I liked the way Morrison wrote Dinah (and Ollie) during the whole thing.

[zordboy.insanejournal.com]

Batman/Superman is just... one long extended acid trip, really, isn't it?

[3goodtimes.insanejournal.com]

It really is and that's why I love it so. In fact, Superman has an acid trip in it!

[stillawkward.insanejournal.com]

Oh man, Obsidian Age was such a good, good arc.

"Death is powerless if you leave a legacy of good behind." Still one of my favorite quotes. I like to think that Bruce considers Dick his 'legacy of good'.

[zordboy.insanejournal.com]

I enjoyed Obsidian Age as well, but that speech from Bruce to Kyle about his father? Gives me chills. Perfect piece of writing, and when you think about why Bruce is doing what he's doing, it's just the most wonderful little moment.

The fact his father *was* a doctor doesn't seem to get touched on a lot. I haven't exactly been following Bat-continuity lately, but I can't remember seeing any other author reference or acknowledge *that* part of Bruce's father, in anything. I really liked it here.

[stig.insanejournal.com]

It's good to know that even a masterful craftsman like Mahnke could make a couple of slip-ups now and then.

[psychop_rex.insanejournal.com]

I wonder why Alfred says he'll be weeping? 'Having a nervous breakdown' would be a more appropriate reaction, I'd think.
And I love how the little floaty flappy furball things mirror itsy-bitsy Batsy's moods and expressions.

[requiem2adream.insanejournal.com]

Weeping with laughter perhaps?

[jelly_ace.insanejournal.com]

The Lil' Leaguers arc never gets old. It has Albuquerque art, cute!chibi!JLAers, and just plain old fun.

And Dick!Tim! banter while fighting a Harlequin Romance-reading gorilla! I forgot all about that! Trinity was sooooo dizzying, I think I just forgot all about it.

And yes, even while in a hundred-degree fever Bruce can hit on Diana and be successful. Cuz he's the goshdarn Batman.

[volksjager.insanejournal.com]

When is Trinity coming out in Trade form ?

[pyrotwilight.insanejournal.com]

They're all out already. 3 trades 29.99 each with 17 or so issues in each. I bought them when Borders does sales so I got all of them for a total of $60 or so.

[nevermore999.insanejournal.com]

Oh God, I just remembered Chibi-Bats origin and it made me giggle.

"MY PARENTS WERE SHOOOOOVED!111"

Also:
Kyle, of all people, should not worry about his legacy of "good behind." ;)

[mcity.insanejournal.com]

I said it on the old SD and I'll say it again; I love how Tim is apparently transdimensional hotness.

Also, why wasn't Kyle in a hurry to save Bruce?

[foxhack.insanejournal.com]

Tim's losing his mind because he expects Chris Hansen to show up at any moment.

...Seduced how? Did they sleep with each other?

[3goodtimes.insanejournal.com]

Not to my knowledge. It was a tongue-in-cheek comment on his remark about her beauty.
