Bendis just wants Superman to date a black chick and get woke.

He writes all kids like annoying pretentious 20 year olds, but Jonathan had to disappear for the unpardonable sin of being a white male.

Well, at least neither of them turned out to be trans. Or the whole deal got retconned via a deal with the devil AFAIK.

Shit still sucks

If Superman gives a monologue about how awesome smashing big, fat asses from behind feels, and how Lois can't compare, it'll be a good story arc.

I dunno why Bendis doesn't just write Steel. He wants a black Superman, there's a black Superman.
Then again it's not like you can shit up DC Comics worse than they've already been shit up. Batman is unreadable these days.

Silly Chegwin. It's not actually about a black Superman. It's about taking away Superman from whitey.

That Lee guy died.

F.

FFFFFFFFFFF

Jack Kirby, on the other hand, died when it was still cool.

[Guest]

At least Kirby gets recognition. It took like a century for anyone to remember that guy who drew Batman.

Well actually...
Bob Kane is the guy who 'drew' Batman (really he just traced most of his art)
Bill Finger, the guy you're thinking of, wrote Batman but most of the concepts associated with Batman (his design, Bruce Wayne, Gotham City, Robin and most of Batman's villains) were his idea

It took a long time for anyone to acknowledge Bill Finger because Bob Kane's name was the only name on the Batman comics, and Bob Kane was adamant that he, and only he, created Batman. Whereas Stan Lee at least acknowledged Jack Kirby drew the books even if he refused to give Kirby his proper credit for effectively creating Marvel's stable of characters.

How did Stan Leiber deal with Ditko?
I was a little disappointed that he died before Stanly, but its what I expected.
