If I requested an AI generated Lower Decks story written with the tone of a snarky middle schooler, I imagine what I’d get would be something a lot like this

Felt like old school comic fun, no pretenses of being more than it is and no woke garbage shoehorned in

Zdarsky is usually a pretty decent story teller but here he gets in his own way by using Daredevil as his mouthpiece to spout his hatred of cops and his ridiculously ignorant opinions about the criminal justice system.

The phrase “boys, girls, and non-binaries” was so stupid. Zodiac embraces villainy and rejects guilt but at the same time he makes sure to use the latest socially acceptable neologisms? But aside from that brief moment of ridiculousness, the rest of the story wasn’t bad.

The story itself was decent but the way Robin was drawn was distractingly bad, he looked like Christopher Mintz-Plasse trying to play Red Mist back when he was still McLovin

THIS IS HOW YOU WRITE A STORY. Gaiman nailed the character development, building empathy for Young Miracleman as a man not only decades removed from his own time and confused by the new world that he sees, but also a man dealing with the realization that his own memories of those decades were false to begin with. And that kiss took things from 0 to 100 faster than anything I’ve ever seen in comics. Rather than shoehorn some nonsensical homosexual kiss into the story for no other reason than to mark off some woke checkbox (here’s looking at you, Tom Taylor), the kiss here works on so many levels to intensify what is happening in the story. 1) For young miracleman, a product of a bygone era where homosexuality was largely recognized as perversion, the kiss would’ve come across as immoral. On top of that, it was done by someone who he looked up to as a mentor, adding a Harvey Weinsteinesque creepiness to the situation. 2) For miracleman, the kiss hearkens back to Alan Moore’s earlier work, where he kissed Gargunza before killing him. However, here he is motivated by the idea that he is helping young miracleman, a thought implanted by miraclewoman against miracleman’s own doubts. Thus he is also confused and shocked by young miracleman’s reaction, leading to his confrontation of miraclewoman at the issue’s close. 3) This adds a high level of intrigue to the whole series. What was miraclewoman’s motivation for telling miracleman what she did to get him to do what he did? What will happen between the two now? Brilliantly done.

Cool to see Matt and Elektra rockin Derelicte by Mugatu

The real Superman was someone that put others before himself and was someone others could look up to. This whole series Jonathan has been nothing more than an entitled brat. Between that and the terrible art, I guess there’s no real mystery as to why this series is being canceled.

People wondering why DC can’t make any money need only look at this $10 atrocity. This is just one example of many that shows that the publishing house has no respect for their fan base

Take your $8 and buy any two issues of the Mighty Morphin or Power Rangers regular series by Ryan Parrott. Anything you buy would be better than this.

The art is bad, the story is bad, every single portrayal of Jonathan makes him look either mopey or constipated

The writing was good, the art was great, but Jonathan as a new leader of the Justice League? I wouldn’t follow him to a Mcdonald’s that was giving away free hamburgers.

Perhaps the biggest inconsistency in comics is that someone like Clark from this comic would raise someone like Jonathan in Taylor’s Superman

The art is terrible, the writing’s terrible, the way Jon was drawn he looks like a constipated beaver

I’m a huge fan of the theme of trying to support your family through thick and thin, I’m new to the character of Shang-Chi but I thought the stories so far have been good.

The best X title in a long, long time, sad to see it drawing to a close

Tom Taylor’s actually a pretty good writer when he’s not wasting everyone’s time with cheap virtue signaling.

Great, Greta Thunberg is a major comic book character now
