    Yup. Flashpoint is setting up for a reboot of the mainstream DCU.

    If they can do this right, I am fucking sold.

    This reboot will last until the next reboot changes everything and everything ends up staying exactly the same after the reboot until it is rebooted so they can change the changes and then just reboot everything again……HA HAAA COMICS!!!

    I don’t care. I haven’t been buying comics much since I came to Australia.

    But didn’t anybody tell Jim Lee the 1990’s are over? Those costume design approaches are dated. I already thought about those metallic eyebrow details he put on Batman, which came from Marvel characters like Box and the High Evolutionary.

    So Superman may not be wearing his underwear over his trousers anymore. But he’s not the only one to get a major change in nethergarments.

    I understand that there is an editorial edict for the DC Comics superlaunch that their female superheroes wear more… practical clothing. So Wonder Woman gets to keep her trousers. But the likes of Supergirl will be redesigned so they aren’t running around in a little skirt flashing their panties at every available opportunity either. Female superhero characters will have their legs covered.

    They can still wear tightblack PVC, but gone are the days when the uniforms informed you whether or not your favourite superheroine had undergone special shaving.

    Haven’t heard one way of the other about breasts though. All you Power Girl fans will have to wait for news on that one.

    finally no more cheesecake, now we can all get back to reading comics for the wonderful plot? :blink:

    1: Lame as always when it comes to reboots.
    2: Making everyone younger? Even more lame.
    3: Redesigns? He basically changed a line or two on the costumes. There are bigger redesigns happening all the time without needing big announcements.

    But the Cheesecake was part of the main attraction! I mean what would we do if Superman never again has to deal with Mr. Mixipix… Mlixipk… Mymixib…

    …this guy…

    Was wondering when someone was gonna mention the redesigns. They don’t look like a change at all, just the same outfits and the same gimmick they have always had.

    Soooo…. less than five years after the reboot, we get another reboot. And the decision that all DCU women wear pants…. who’s running this show?… The Taliban? :angry: :angry:

    Christ, people have got to dump that stupid comparison.

    No, I’d say it’s been taken over by the utilitarians.
