revi Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 DC should have never brought back the multi-verse.. It really made their continuity suffer.. The events in the first Crisis seems to have gone to the dogs.. 52's events are now the focal point.. In 10 years, another crisis would emerge and destroy the multi-verse once again.. Ano ito? Cycle? bwehehehe!!! :thumbsdownsmiley: Marvel, on the other hand, has a better continuity than DC.. Still, I can't help but just smirk over time travelling.. When Bishop, Cable and other guys from the future came into the XMen's continuity, it seemed like the XMen storyline became more like DC's.. I still remember vividly when Havok was sent to another timeline and formed Generation X.. Nahilo ako.. But at least its not the whole comic universe.. Sa DC kasi ang gulo ng buong universe nila.. But I still get some titles of DC.. I am currently getting Countdown.. Kaso ang gulo din.. Quote Link to comment
rdaq97 Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 oo nga.. mas magulo talaga continuity ng DC. Sa Marvel mas madaling i-traceback yung continuity nya. Credit that to an editorial team that does a great job of double-checking the stuff scribes write for Marvel. sa DC, you think something happened then the next thing you know they're saying it's another multiverse. 52 was fun for awhile but lost its appeal after several issues. Countdown is ambitious but considering DC's history, probably won't count for much. World War Hulk na lang! Quote Link to comment
TidusJanus Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 World War Hulk na lang! :thumbsupsmiley: :thumbsupsmiley: :thumbsupsmiley: When's the series gonna end ba?CAn't wait to get my hands on those scans! hehe (sorry, not a collector. just a reader.hehe) Quote Link to comment
orionpax Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 (edited) The 4 "Supermen" you were referring to were Steel (Armored JLA member), Superboy (a clone of Supes made by Cadmus), The Eradicator (Alien) and Metallo... This is if we follow post Crisis (circa 86) storyline.. Superman Blue & Red are in the same storyline after Supes is resurrected with Kryptonian medicine The Russian versions of Supes/Bats are from the Elseworlds storyline much like Marvel's Amalgam The Batman who is the "genetic" father of Terry McGinnis (Batman Beyond) is the Post Crisis Batman, wherein all storylines where rebooted (Wally West is Flash , when most of us know he is Barry Allen in pre Crisis, since Wally is Kid Flash of Teen Titans etc) The Batman you were referring to could be Azrael or Nightwing (Dick Grayson), who pitched in for Bruce Wayne when Bane broke his back Sa pagkakaalam ko nung namatay si Superman, merong 4 na superman na pumalet, man of Iron, super boy tapos meron pang dalawa. Yung superman red and blue, don na resolve yung love story kay Lois Lane at Lana Lang. Then meron pang Superman version of Russia, at Superman Uk/Britain.As for Batman, magulo din. Merong Batman na may anak kay Catwoman which is Huntress. I think Earth Two version yon. Merong Batman na ang genetic son is Terry Magilis. Merong Batman na di si Bruce Wayne, pero Batman sya na depedent sa gadgets. Dumating sya nung na injured si Bruce Wayne.Sa Marvel di ganon ka Complex. Ang alam ko lang nagkakaiba ng story is between sa Comics, cartoons at movies. My all time Marvel favorite is Wolverine. I cant wait for his Movie Edited June 5, 2007 by orionpax Quote Link to comment
revi Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 The Russian versions of Supes/Bats are from the Elseworlds storyline much like Marvel's Amalgam Correct me if I am wrong bro.. Amalgam Comics was created when DC and Marvel connived and made a huge company to company cross-over.. Hence Amalgam presented characters such as Spider Boy, etc.... I think Amalgam was owned by both DC and Marvel.. Elseworlds is more like the What if books of Marvel.. Ultimates is somewhat like a re-make with different twists/characters, etc... Tama ba?

orionpax Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 Thanks for pointing that out bro, yup, Amalgam is a collaboration by both DC and Marvel Right, both Elseworlds and Ultimates are not within the continuing storyline of Marvel (Civil War or House of M?? ) Correct me if I am wrong bro.. Amalgam Comics was created when DC and Marvel connived and made a huge company to company cross-over.. Hence Amalgam presented characters such as Spider Boy, etc.... I think Amalgam was owned by both DC and Marvel.. Elseworlds is more like the What if books of Marvel.. Ultimates is somewhat like a re-make with different twists/characters, etc... Tama ba?

orionpax Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 (edited) Havent read much about Logan lately but from what i know, after Magneto stripped off the Adamantium off him, it took time for his healing factor to work on his recovery, only to know that the Adamantium itself was "restricting" his "evolving" mutant powers..he thus gained an exponential increase of his mutant power. He can now regenerate skin, bones and internal organs in minutes or seconds. He was bonded with Adamantium again when he won a duel with a then Adamantium bonded Sabretooth to become one of the Horsemen, Death. He wanted to win, because if Sabretooth won, he kept the Adamantium and will be under total control of Apocalypse and do his every bidding, thus wreak more havoc. So he chose the lesser evil to be Death and later fight off the clutches of Apocalypse's control with the help of Jubilee Its hard to track back the history of those characters. Most of the stories / comics appeared before I was born. More about wolverine,Do you know the full story when Magnetto removed the Adumantium from Wolverines body? As I heard, Wolverine's healing power became faster. Apparently some of his healing power were preventing the intoxication of his blood due to the Adumantium in his bone. Did he have another Adumantium transplant? Edited June 5, 2007 by orionpax Quote Link to comment
rdaq97 Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 When's the series gonna end ba?CAn't wait to get my hands on those scans! hehe sorry to burst your bubble dude but World War Hulk is just going to start this month. hehehe. kung 7-issue series sya like Civil War, probably next year pa yan mageend. How about the story of Wolverine during his old age? I saw a pdf of that before but I was not able to download it. Maraming nang stories na ganito. Although I think you're referring to Wolverine: The End. I can't remember kung tama yung title. hehehe. Quote Link to comment
Larry Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 (edited) Then meron pang Superman version of Russia, Superman: Red Son one of the best Superman stories ever. and it's out of continuity. Ultimates is somewhat like a re-make with different twists/characters, etc... Tama ba? correct The Ultimate line is a complete re-boot of the Marvel Universe, the characters are the same, some look different, and some personalities are vastly different (i.e. Hawkeye and Ult. Hawkeye where Hawkeye is more than just some arrow shooting dude, and the most notable is Collosus and Ult. Collosus, where the Ult. version is an actual homosexual who has a thing for Wolverine) Edited June 5, 2007 by Larry Quote Link to comment
Larry Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 Collosus Homosexual? Yuck.... Hehehehehehe Macho din po ba yon? Parang kadari. kadiri talaga but he's not a flaming homo ala John Lapuz, he's more like that hair and grooming fag on Queer Eye. and yes he's still macho (actually Ult. Collosus is the "hunk" of the Ult. XMen women all swoon over him) Quote Link to comment
teasoy216 Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 not surprising Colosus being gay, he is related to Rasputin!!!! Quote Link to comment
Boss_boso Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 (edited) I'd still prefer those Image characters. Actually hindi na ako nagbasa ng Marvel and DC Comics ever since Jim Lee, Andy Williams, Adam and Andy Kubert, While Portacio, Todd Macfarlane, Marc Silvestri, Jim Valentino and Rob Liefield jumped ship. Whew, that was quite some time ago. hahaha Edited June 7, 2007 by Boss_boso Quote Link to comment
Larry Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 Image was a great idea gone bad Stormwatch, Deathblow and Wetworks (which has been relaunched I think) were some favorites, but most their other books sucked. Actually hindi na ako nagbasa ng Marvel and DC Comics ever since Jim Lee, Andy Williams, Adam and Andy Kubert, While Portacio, Todd Macfarlane, Marc Silvestri, Jim Valentino and Rob Liefield jumped ship most of the artists you mentioned are back in either Marvel or DC Jim Lee (DC)Kubert Bros (Marvel, 1602 the limited series had excellent art)Todd McFarlane doesn't seem interested in drawing anymoreRob Liefeld (Marvel) and he still sucks.

Liefeld is back with Marvel? since when? His art really blows but some of his early work was ok-ish. Quote Link to comment
