Comic Book Storyline Rumours

I think Howard the Duck should replace Bruce Wayne...

No, Buzzy, you got it all wrong.

Batman will be killed and it will be revealed he was a skrull the whole time.

boy they really didn't like Jason did they.

I think Steve Rogers will become the new Batman.

Especially since as I understand it, fans paid real money to vote to kill off Jason... bringing him back was insulting to those who forked over the cash to vote him dead.

O.
I get it now.
Yeah D-I-C-K should take over. Jason is not worthy, IMO.

whew - thanks for explaining that - I thought I was losing it.

Because the filter, filters out the word D-I-C-K and replaces it with monkey.

O.
Why do they call him that?

Who's monkey?

And that'd be totally dumb. They should kill off a hero no one cares about, like everyone other than Batman and Superman.

MONKEY = D-I-C-K The filter does that. LOL

Who's monkey?

And that'd be totally dumb. They should kill off a hero no one cares about, like everyone other than Batman and Superman.

Doc I don't think the Punisher will be the next batman .

I heard rumor of Bruce becoming Spectre..who knows... who cares..HULK SMASH ALL PUNY DC CHARACTERS!!!!!!!

yeah your right supermans a$$ should of stayed dead, I can't stand superman, hes corney

You could say the same thing about Bucky.

As for the whole death of Superman thing, I have just a few things to say.

One, Superman is not DC's golden boy. Most of their revenue in comics, movies and toys comes from Batman, not Superman... even after Superman returns.

Two, "killing" a character off and bringing him back a year later (especially in 4 inane forms) doesn't count as killing the character off. That's just blatant blatant money mongering and (attempted) mass merchandising. A character must stay dead for at least 5 years imho for the death to count as a death.

Just my opinions... take them for what they're worth.

why not? they killed Superman and it was a huge moneymaker for DC. I'm just sick of the whole kill off X then ressurect X 12 issues later with some totally lame plot twist formula.

Marvel had done it right with Captain Marvel he was dead for almost 20 years before they brought him back - which is also stupid. should have left him dead and used this as the opportunity for Genis to finally rise to the occasion.

Ah, c'mon. Marvel have killed Wolvie loadsa times.

He's just really, really good at getting better.

There's no way DC will kill off their golden boy. He's their main revenue maker. It'd be like Marvel killing off Wolverine. Not gonna happen.

Lol, I'd like to see that. I mean, there wasn't a big stink when Cap died, there shouldn't be one when Bats dies either. There's enough heroes to fill their shoes. Bigger, smarter heroes who aren't afraid to pull a trigger now and then
