Honestly, I haven't followed much at all outside of the main Batman title (although I recently read a bunch of the weekly one) and all I can say is that Batman probably hasn't slept for five years if all this shit has happened in his life during that time

turns out the muscles were not meant to be a jodhpurs reference, they were literally meant to be jodhpurs but Jim Lee has not learnt to draw after three decades as a professional artist

I like the Batman a lot! Good design. Reminds me of Marvin the red rabbit in Dungeon. Snyder's been a bit shit since the first year, though, so not expecting much.
The rest are a bit ridiculous but not really ridiculous enough.

I like how the Wonder Woman outfit at least addresses the ages old "why would a warrior wear something like that?" question of her previous costumes, too bad it looks so "90s shit" otherwise.
The new Bat-bunny costume has gotta be a shoutout to the rabbit-eared cyborg guy in Masamune Shirow's Appleseed, right?

that doesn't address the major shit element that Albuquerque was repeatedly asked by DC to make the image creepier and more inappropriate, including elements like the blood lipstick and the gun pointing towards Batgirl's crotch

Caught up with some DC stuff -- the final issues of the three weekly minis, plus Convergence 0.
Surprise! They were not good. Also, unless I read wrong, they've set up a definitive future in which, er, all the heroes are killed and turned into zombie robots - is that right? That seems... bleak.

I don't know if we need a new thread for post 52 clusterfucks, but DC is making a new ad campaign: DC YOU! Promising to ask readers such smart questions as: 'Are YOU ready to laugh?, Are YOU ready to hashtag this?, and Are YOU ready for the new awesome?' I know I'm not! Apparently they are promoting diversity. So of course there's an ad with famed gay superhero Midnighter, which just shows a man in a mask with blood on his face and the tagline: He can predict your every move... but nobody can predict what he'll do next... are YOU ready? They really sold the diversity of that story...
