Half fighter and half goober, Booster Gold is one DC Comics most unique and entertaining characters!

    Brubaker's story seems very interesting, but Cooke's art is not that convincing. I don't completely hate Selina's face, but it does pull the comic down. Btw, Bob Kane was mostly right. Women sometimes are exaggeratedly friendly, not just acting as if they are romantically interested, when they are romantically interested, and this particularly counts when they do not make it clear that they are romantically interested. And when that is gone, you don't only lose a romantic connection, but a friend. Men can't easily go from closeness to detachment and that's why maybe it's best to consider having a certain detachment from the start.

    Just to be clear, I agree with 99% of what you're saying here. But lets not make a play of being TOO pretentious to the point where we miss those thoughtful moments in the other stories, even if there's as you label it, "a fight scene". The Superman action DOES have to be there at some point, but in a case like Superman: Man Of Tomorrow, it had some interesting bits, but it wasn't interesting enough BECAUSE it didn't have those points of light about Superman, like All Star Superman had. But people tend to throw Grant Morrison up on a pedestal because of his JLA comic series run, Kingdom Come, and All Star. He's a good writer, and gets Superman as evidenced by All Star, but the entire comic series remembers where it gets its stranger turns in the story . . . ACTION COMICS. Thus, there had to be some <GASP!> . . . ACTION. The hyper focus of the action over the quality of the character is why someone talked J.J. Abrams out of making his Superman Trilogy back in the late 90's-2K's. Superman and Kung Fu . . . <SHUDDER!> But for me, All Star gets the advanced nature of Superman right. He should almost come off Christ-like in his worldview. Yeah, I KNOW, everyone is trying to get away from that allegory, but let's not forget that THAT IS part of Supermans genetic make-up and creative Origins. So it only follows that Superman should feel like the ULTIMATE Good, with Lex coming off like the ULTIMATE Evil. But there should always be the ACTION from a property that debuted and thrived under ACTION COMICS. It's all about balance. That's why alot of people don't get Superman 100% right. I really wish that the animated movie captured that "Heavy Metal" look that Frank Quitely captured so well in the page, because his artwork surprised me, I revisited the book some years after viewing the movie, and I kept thinking "this is very beautiful artwork, why couldn't the movie look MORE LIKE THIS!"

    I loved the Balent/Dixon run in the 90’s. Yeah she was overtly sexy, but she had so much depth and nuance in her complex personality. She was motivated to seek stability and security, she feared and desired love, she had a protective nature that clashed with her trust issues. Duffy and Dixon wrote her character and plot far better than this video gives credit for - far better than in New 52.

At the end of the film I was scared of the possibility of losing everything we created after 1945 in Europe to prevent such a return. Unfortunately, this film made me believe for a few moments that everything was created in vain, because even today anyone like Hitler can come to power if he says what people want to hear and not what they need to hear.
