Aquaman
Martian Manhunter
Superboy Conner Kent
Superman Earth 2
Nekron

But what about some of these?
Maxwell Lord
Bruce Wayne (New God or not? hmm who knows)
Doomsday (the original)
Darkseid

And what about death cheaters, people who died but have come back to life? Scar says she has the power over life and death, so if you ever died does that count? Because if it does then we can add;

Donna Troy
Jason Todd
Kyle Rayner
Supergirl Crisis on Infinite Earths
The Question
Bart Allen (Now resurrected in the 31st Century)
Barry Allen (Was he dead, who knows)
Wonder Woman (she was returned to clay once)
Superman?
Hal Jordan?

There’s others but what do you think?

Oh, and Gog didn’t create Earth-Two, he just sent Power Girl there, you see it near the end of 52.

(By the way, had the same posting problem with IE7, I think the problem comes from the site.)

God, this is tacky, taking the dignified and graceful exit Marv Wolfman gave to the very first super-hero in “Crisis on Infinite Earths” because Wolfman respected the character too much to kill him and using it as a loophole to bring the character back all gritty, edgy and morose. And to have him beaten to death in an oh-so-90s fashion on-panel for a cheap shock, on top of that? Makes me wish Wolfman really had killed him, he would have at least gotten a good death. Oh, well. At least Johns can’t do anything worse to the character.

My reaction to this:

God, I was naive four years ago.

I wish I had a Matrix like ability to download information directly to my brain because without that I don’t know how I’m going to understand anything that DC is putting out in the stores now…. I didn’t even finish reading 52 yet…

I’ve read the first trade of 52 – I read nothing of Infinite Crisis nor Identity Crisis – and I’ve had no trouble picking up and following any DCU books.

There’s been a couple of things where I’ve wondered – ‘When did Superman get a new fortress’ (for example), but nothing that got in the way of the story.
But I don’t seem to read the books that people get all worked up about.

Oh yeah. MARVEL ZOMBIES. How original. ”

HAHAHAHAHAHA! Oh yes, because Marvel has a copyright on zombies. Last time I checked not everyone who comes back from the dead wants to eat brains, but then again that’s just me.

John’s has stated numerous times that he had this story plotted as part 3 of 3 major story arcs BEFORE starting GL:Rebirth , which incidentally hit stands a year before Marvel Zombies. Nevermind the fact that anyone with a GL background can see Nekron from a million miles away as the big bad for the Black Lanterns.

If you are reading the Lantern books, I can’t understand why you don’t get what’s going on. If you think the concept is “lame” then don’t read it. I’m sure the 80,000+ of us reading it each month will still enjoy it without you.

Indeed. It’s just too much, too soon. Roll out one colour per year, tops, if you’re going to do this. THEN do the big throwdown between all of them.

I maintain that what DiDido really needs to do is sit down in front of some 80s NWA to understand how to book long-term.

I have no problem with Didio and everything he instigated, I just wished he would have less energy and that he would have done it in the course of a 7 year span, not 2-3 years.

Black Lanterns, Yellow Lanterns, Fluorescent Lanterns, c’mon! I suppose it’s not a bad idea, but it seems lame when just reading about it.

Yeah, cause the concepts are all the same, from what we have seen so far…

I wish i had the same crystal ball you had, critcizing something that’s not even out yet.

Oh yeah. MARVEL ZOMBIES. How original.

Let’s hope the Black Lanterns don’t eat people. (Though given the current DC, they might just tear them apart alive.)

Not interested.

But if Terry Long shows up as a Black Lantern, then, I’m running for the hills.

Yep! Each time I post I get an error and have to go back two pages and refresh just to see if it posted properly… IE5 and Firefox 3…

So… Earth-2 supes would therefore be perfectly eligible (as long as he was dead) … I think the Justice League Infinity or Justice Society Infinity seen in JSA recently and posited as Earth-Two (as opposed to Earth-2) should have vanished with the dissapearance of everything else Gog made happen… BUT… We do still have Magog… so-o-o…

Bruce Wayne should be noticeable for his absence, as he should (if the majority of theories are correct!) be tied up in the Omega Sanction and not actually dead…
