The Clone Saga was'nt that bad. And it made Marvel s*it loads of money back then. AND it's legacy resulted in heroes with cult followings like Kane and Mayday

It was pretty bad.

Well there's a black Superman
a black Captain America
a Pakistani Ms. Marvel

and does Batwing count as a black batman?

Not as bad as OMD or Superior Spider-Man

Where would the most recent reboot rank in the grand spectrum of Spider-man?

If he does, then we've had two black Captain America, thre's also that guy who was a test subject to recreate the Super Soldier serum.

you know what would be nice? A Static Shock movie.

people complain so much about minorities taking over white heroes.

and yet here we are without a Static Shock movie....one of the most popular black heroes.

It sold pretty well actually (like the Clone Saga did), and led to the cult book Superior Foes, I never had an outright problem with the concept (Doc Ock as Spidey), it was the writing on the main book that was reviled.

Oh no no, I meant the last movie in comparison to the overall Spectrum of Spidey Stories.

Like...if 1 is the worst thing ever, and 10 is the greatest story of Spidey ever told, where would this movie rank?

But...this is also interesting to know. Most of my exposure to Marvel stuff is through the X-books and now Avengers, so I don't really know how the new Spidey stuff is being received.

well... Just becasue something new is bad, doesn't make older material that was bad suddenly good.

Just because we have All-Star Batman & Robin, doesn't mean that Dark Knight Strikes Again is now a good story.

So what exactly is wrong with Dark knight Strikes Again, apart from the Art?

Thank you. Someone gets it. Not that I'm against "legacy characters of race" per se- I just hate the idea that they would have an IDENTICAL origin to the original. It's just BAD WRITING.

Now see? THIS- THIS I could actually get behind. Instead of taking an established character WITH POWERS and turning his powers and suit over to a new owner like it's just a used car, why not take another ESTABLISHED character of (insert race here) and do a movie on THEM??! How is that so hard to understand??!! THAT's my WHOLE POINT!

Maybe not, but it looks BETTER in comparison. Like taking two rotten apples, and judging which one is MORE rotten. Compared to the OMD mess, Clone Saga is actually- pretty decent. And it led to some interesting characters and plot-threads. OMD day just ended ups DESRTOYING plots. Much worse, IMHO.

Why haven't they made a new Blade yet?
(Also, sometimes I wish they'd focus more on the movie itself instead of connecting it to a huge universe, it's annoying.)

What IS good about DK2?

The art is bad, the story is pretty meh and uninspiring, characters acting off, overall it's a terrible sequel to Dark Knight Returns.


No wait, there is a good thing about DK2, the hilarity that is Batman's oversized Kryptonite boxing gloves, that is gold.

Heh, I kinda like that. What's so ridiculous to me, is the knee jerk racism you see when stuff like this is brought up.

For example, TMNT is my ****. Therefore, I sometimes get a little bent out of shape when new versions change things that I think are for the worse. It's something I avidly follow and have a very informed opinion on.

But then you have the average internet ass hole (let's say cybercubed), who gets all "they made the gaw damned X-Men GAY"... when I know that mutha fugga doesn't even read the current Bendis run.

Even if they somehow ruined Spider-Man, that won't take away or undo the comics or the Spectacular animated series.

No, that's All-Star Batman & Robin.

Also have the lovely quote from... The guy supposed to be Batman
"What are you, dense? Are you retarded or something? Who the hell do you think I am? I'm the goddamn Batman!"
