Oh Look, Everyone Was Wrong

[jcbaggee.insanejournal.com]

One page from Superman/Batman #61, and the resolution of a previous quandry.


Turns out it was not Robin Lois, its...Lana Quinn.



There's some other decent mish-mashes, but I think Ravanna was the best. I'll post it if someone wants, but after the spirited discussion on the prospect of Robin Lane (Totally should have happend!), I thought I'd post the answer!

This issue made me sad and happy at the same time. I hope the Mashup world returns somehow.

You know what was probably my favorite part? Zee waking up. Because evidently, she wears that top hat right up until she goes to sleep.

And that's just awesome. Somebody give her an on-going, now.

[pyrotwilight.insanejournal.com]

Personally seeing Zee's dream being that of her and Bruce being married was heartbreaking.

Also I absolutely LOVE page 5 I think where Batman's snuck behind Terranado and tells her "Hello Terranado" and her face going holy FUCK.

Batman, he scares the motor oil out of gynoids.

I like Lex Joker. *G*

[jcbaggee.insanejournal.com]

I like to think the Batgod does that to people from time to time, not because its stealthy, but because he finds it entertaining.

[pyrotwilight.insanejournal.com]

He's one crazy haircut away from ruling Marvel.

*laughs* Does anyone have that web comic of Lex lecturing Osborne about not blowing by being insane?

[pyrotwilight.insanejournal.com]

Hmm, not on my comp but I do remember it.

Of course my favorite bit was.

Lex: I am a man from another universe who's here to give you some tips now that you're in power.
Norman: Given who I associate with I won't be surprised.
Lex: Good man.

[kijikun.insanejournal.com]

I was fond of the 'poem' Norman was writing.

[pyrotwilight.insanejournal.com]

Lex: Maim, kill, kill, destroy Spider-man? Hmm...
Norman: It's a work in progress.
Lex: I see.

Am I a bad person for thinking about that part "Batman is so obsessed, he cockblocks himself"?

(Yes, it was also quite heartbreaking.)

[kijikun.insanejournal.com]

Lex had such a 'god damnit, maybe I should just trade places with him' look on his face too.

[pyrotwilight.insanejournal.com]

My first thought was actually that you didn't even Mephisto to undo this one. Though that sucks too.

[bariman1987.insanejournal.com]

Heh. These mashups are awesome. Can we get an ongoing?

Say, (I'm sure this has been asked somewhere) now that Bruce is "dead" and Dick has taken up the mantle, is Superman/Batman going to become awesome Clark/Dick team-ups, or what?

[thokstar.insanejournal.com]

I really liked the twist in this issue (which was actually well foreshadowed).

Also, given Superman/Batman continuity Lana Quinn actually makes decent sense: Lana did try to make the world uninhabitable for Superman to protect Lexcorp's investment and you can mash that with Harley.

Were any other mashup groups other than the Justice Titans mentioned in these issues? I'm trying to decide whether or not I should go ahead with figuring out who the International Outsiders would be.

[thokstar.insanejournal.com]

The next arc is Robin/Supergirl, I believe.

[statham1986.insanejournal.com]

Given most of the stories in Superman/Batman seem to be out of any real continuity DC are attempting to keep running, I somehow see them using this and Batman Confidential as vehicles to tell Bruce stories while he's dead. We've been promised a 'Dick meets the JLA' moment toward the end of the year, apparently.

[superfan1.insanejournal.com]

Lana Quinn lol, I did like the Bruce/Zatanna slash at the end.

[jcbaggee.insanejournal.com]

If the cover is to be believed, Dick meets the JLA in the next issue.

[ulf_boehnke.insanejournal.com]

This one? (http://nodwick.humor.gamespy.com/ffn/index.php?date=2009-01-07)

[kijikun.insanejournal.com]

That's the one.

[icon_uk.insanejournal.com]

Oh I LIKE that one.

Nice commentary on the Lex stops being President becasue... well, because he suddenly went completely batshit insane and started frothing at the mouth ranting when on live television.

I still like the JLU line, where Luthor reveals his plan to run for president plan was entirely fake because "Why would I want the job? Do you have any idea how much power and infulence I'd have to GIVE UP if I were to become President?"

The notion that President of the USA is too limiting and underpowered a position for Lex amuses me no end! :)

[icon_uk.insanejournal.com]

Damian and Kara? That'll end well...

[jlbarnett.insanejournal.com]

terrible mashups.

[jcbaggee.insanejournal.com]

Actually, Its another flashback/past story kind of thing with Tim and Kara.
