Yup. Flashpoint is setting up for a reboot of the mainstream DCU.
If they can do this right, I am fucking sold.
June 1, 2011 at 6:58 am #101202McParticipantA reboot by the same idiots who wrecked the place…. Joy
June 1, 2011 at 7:38 am #101203FlakBaitKeymasterThis 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!!!
June 1, 2011 at 1:55 pm #101205HolidayParticipantI 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.

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:

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.June 2, 2011 at 3:01 am #101221DannyParticipantFlakBait wrote:

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…

They don’t look like a change at all, just the same outfits and the same gimmick they have always had.
June 2, 2011 at 5:30 am #101225btxParticipantSoooo…. 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:

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