The new Harley Quinn… sigh…

***

I want to be the fly-on-the-wall when Bruce Timm sees that "Harley".

I don't think it is metal on the kryptonians. I have seen this style used
before on other costumes and it wasn't metal, plus there is no
reflective light bursts like armor normally has nowadays.

That is except for Superman's boots. It was hard to believe he could
wear the old ones under his street clothes, these look impossible,
unless they work like yellow on Iron Man's armor used to.

DC has jumped the shark on this reboot.  What a way to drive off the remaining fans.

********************************

I'm going to wait until I actually READ some of the books before I judge it.  BUT I am making my buying decisions based on creative teams and some of the covers. 

DC has not driven this fan away though.

The new Superman costume will look very dated in a few years.  The "classic" costume never really looks dated since it's not really in style.  Or something like that.

Every single new image I see just makes it all feel worse and worse. It's all so UNbelievable. Seriously, I am having a hard time believing that DC is serious about all of this crap.

Rob Liefeld making an appearance just made me laugh, like it's a huge prank.


Worst part of this for me is that I feel disappointed in George Perez.
This is misplaced of course, but I feel that George should know what a huge insult this is to SUPERMAN, and not participate.

DC should change their name and adopt this new logo....

For Rain on our Parade Comics. (or Ruined Product, it's ah multiple choice).

Funny, when I saw the logo I thought R.I.P., still fitting.

I was hoping someone would prove that George Perez Superman art was an altered image.

I can live with the new looks for Supergirl and Superboy but Superman...? Could that costume be any more over-thought?

I'd be OK with losing the red trunks if one must, But the double-pointed boots were classic and distinctively Superman! I hate these new things. And that belt...! And the collar...?

IMO drawing all those seams is over doing it. Seams are often hard to notice unless you're really paying attention.
