The thought and deliberation that went into synthesizing all the different parts of the DC universe to build a cohesive world. It’s not the right approach for every take on DC, but it’s cool we have one with that kind of unified vision. #ngl

I think villains, heroes, and close colleagues cover all three categories of people who know his identity. #ngl

I would be surprised if they did. DC Studios is investing hard in like a dozen brand new animated shows right now. If they were planning more with Harley or Kite Man I think we’d hear about it. #ngl

I like to describe HARLEEN as the story of a woman in a horror comic who thinks she’s in a romance comic #ngl

Either the JSA or the Titans, demographically depending. #ngl

I don’t think this is much of a trope in superhero comics, because courage is a baseline for being a superhero #ngl

“I’m set to make a killing off this movie where sex is only legal once a year. They bought the IP from my wife!”
I keep telling people this and no one believes me: at least at DC, there is no such thing as “ongoings” and “minis” anymore. There hasn’t been for about 5 years now. Every single set of 6 issues is an audition to the readers for more.
AIPT@aiptcomics.com · 5h agoDC extends ‘The Deadman’ to 12 issues following fan response @martinmorazzo.bsky.social #comicsky Get the scoop:
The stipulations for character equity and accreditation are worked out ahead of time by a creator and DC. Standard boilerplate agreements are available for those who seek equity, but some adjust those terms to different parameters. Whether DC agrees to those parameters is, too, case dependent. #ngl

I don’t believe so. If the fur community has ever been addressed with sincerity in any DC publication, it was in something I haven’t read. #ngl

It is an interesting inversion of the character with a cool, creepy vibe. I’m not saying it’s better than just the normal Harley Quinn, but the fun is in reiteration here. #ngl

I haven’t really seen season 2 yet, but from season 1, Harley Quinn. #ngl

Yeah, The Hybrid are some piddling Marv Wolfman Teen Titans villains, and it’s not much of a secret that he and George Pérez were cribbing a lot from Claremont. This Blue Beetle run your friend is reading features pretty much the only other arc they appear in. #ngl

All of the ships I feel strongly about are uncontroversial for being objectively correct, except maybe one: I like the New 52 era Carol Ferris/Kyle Rayner relationship. It being so fucked up is the point. #ngl

I tried starting to do the math on who the most obvious missing Clayface from your accounting might be…until I realized I could just ask Jude Ellison S. Doyle.
