In fact, it only emphasizes it.</b> <br /><br />No, it's not. That line of thought is absurd. <br /><br /><b>The stuff Clark encounters as a reporter must be downright maddening</b> <br /><br />Clark has more than his "stone-crushing fists" to fight crime, he has supervision (and that includes x-ray vision), superaudition, superspeed, flight capability, just link the dots : <b>"HIS POWERS MADE HIM A MODE EFFECTIVE AGENT TO GATHER CRUSHING EVIDENCES AGAINST CORRUPT PEOPLE THAN BATMAN",</b> he doesn't even have the need to play as Superman all the time, he can go around as Clark Kent, disguise himself as a janitor and build the whole case for the prosecution without even sweat, even with his powers level on the lower setting he can do this easily and his stone crushing fists are better fit for the type writer than for the proverbial anvil of justice.<br /><br /><b>"The fact that he didn't kill anyone yet, or tried to take over the world only proves a strong moral center and self-control"</b><br /><br />The fact that he actually threatened and in fact torture people if he caught them doing their evil deeds again is all evidence the judicial system need to target him as a criminal and eventually a terrorist with no self-control and an unbalanced mind set, just because he didn't yet that doesn't mean he can't start doing in the future : this Superman is a SADIST, he is no better than Dexter. <br /><br />He is worst than Dexter and at least Dexter is more like Batman because the Dark Knight when in need to gather info or beat the crap out of criminals through the hard way.<br /><br />Batman does this kind of hand-to-hand practice in private instead of exposing himself before the media and the law enforcement agents and that's the kind of maniac a Frank Miller's fan can trust.<br /><br />Spotlights are for peacocks, fair justice in blind.<br /><br /><i>...whispers<br />...The Bat-signal is a distraction, Gordon points one way and Batman goes directly to the opposite way where all action happens Hold.<br />...whispers<br />...Robin is not a distraction Hold, he is a decoy meant to attract all bullets away from Batman.<br />...whispers<br />...Yes, i hope Damian die sooner or later too, making an abortion after 9 to 12 years at this point is a lesser evil.</i>Capt.

I think you need a weekend on a Boot Camp : survivor skills against supernatural creatures like vampires, werewolves, Stephenie Meyer's books, Frank Miller's next up coming movie production and ZOMBIES are a top priority for any candidate for a writers career, your character Linkara deals, or at least should i guess, with supernatural phenomenon on a regular basis. <br /><br />You should not avoid creative sources that's all, except Stephanie Meyer because those books are crap. If you think Frank Miller is mad you should dare to check at least the movies, it's not for the weak of heart, her characters made All Star Batman looks like a pedophile hobo maniac who stolen Batman's identity.<br /><br />Anyway, Demon Knights is far far away a better book than any of this.Capt.

Because he always help the city of Metropolis and the world in general doing what his powers allowed him to do but the law enforcement agencies were powerless to do : HELPING TO SAVE AND RESCUING PEOPLE THREATENED BY SUPERPOWERED VILLAINS AND CRIMINALS ACTING AGAINST THEIR HELPLESS VICTIMS.<br /><br />Superman is not meant to be an All Mighty God omniscient of every evil deed made by corrupt people in Metropolis, he is meant to help not to seek and punish, please Grant take a break, keep that for Batman who by the way is far more effective and better connected with the right side of the law.<br /><br />And Superman in a learning curve ?

Comment : Supe...Topic : Action Comics #01 and #02.<br /><br />Comment : Superman still is part of the humanity ? And If not has he ever been more human in the past ?<br /><br />He has powers beyond human capability even if you add cybernetics and ultra technology Batman barely dreams standing side by side with him if the writer consider the last son of Krypton should be portrait as a living all mighty God, let's not forget that he is in fact an alien but Morrison maybe forget another fact : he doesn't grow up as an alien or even lived his whole life in an alien home with those of his kind.<br /><br />He grow up in a farm, live his early years in a small town and his parents, foster parents if you wish to make this clear, take the most important job on Superman's creation : they set up his moral values and that's where Morrison probably gets out of touch with the character, i doubt most of the farmer boys from Kansas - even most of those who join the college's football team - grown up to became bullies. Maybe some but not all of them and even those don't grow up to became superhero material and don't mention Guy Gardner, he became a duchess after assume the role as Green Lantern and thanks to an explosion that mess with his head he became this lovely non-role model example for a superhero we all "love???".<br /><br />So he should never stop to be part of our civilization, he is the guy every "GUY" must take as a role model but so far he is inconsistent. He does the wrong thing one moment and then turn around and do something right, that not the kind of Clark we know, he should be lawful good but instead he acts chaotic good, answering my own question i say : Not part of humanity yet, Morrison is missing things. <br /><br />To answer the second question short i quote the All Star Batman & Robin's review: Linkara said - quoting - "In All Star Superman : SUPERMAN CURES CANCER, in All Star Batman & Robin..." - end quoting, everybody know Frank Miller is a genius but my point is YES, Grant Morrison already portraits Superman as more humane than he is currently showing now and that's disturbing, Superman is meant to be a role model to inspire people while Batman inspire fear Superman inspire hope and that's not the case in most of Action Comics so far despite the sales.Capt.

...Okay, Sake?<br /><br />KNOCK IT OFF WITH THOSE ENDING BITS.<br /><br />You want to post an opinion, that's fine. The problem is that you're sometimes treating the comments section as if you're writing the script for some show or production and frankly it doesn't make any damn sense - it's like you're stringing together unintelligble phrases. Maybe it's because English isn't your primary language - I don't know, but it's very tiresome for me trying to read through this stuff in order to try to decipher if it's something I need to delete or if it's okay to let through.<br /><br />Also, I decided to take a gander at your blog and it seems you're just copy-pasting the entries on your blog and then putting them here free of context. You can post whatever you want on your blog, but on mine - you have to write out actual COMMENTS. Stop trying to make a big production out of your opinions for the comment sections. Agree, disagree, state why, ask questions, have a discussion. That is all. I'm not letting any more of those posts through until they actually have something of subtance to say.<br /><br />Subsequently, I don't appreciate any name-calling or insults being thrown around - do not refer to other commenters as an idiot... unless they are clearly trolling, which so far no one is.<br /><br />That goes for everyone - this is a friendly place to post and discuss and I intend to keep it that way.Lewis Lovhaughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06724769374732321363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5809126056034906096.post-69116421469457843062011-10-11T23:37:17.955-05:002011-10-11T23:37:17.955-05:00Teen Titans and Justice League International with ...Teen Titans and Justice League International with sales ahead from Voodoo and Red Hood and the Outlaws. <br /><br />Dear Mr. Lovhaug, i salute you, the numbers this month prove once more you as a worthy adversary, i hope your favorite comics keep doing better than mine despite their average popular common quality, today defeat shrouds but tomorrow may victory sun shine again for me.<br /><br />My pen and papers are ready, my sight seeks the next sales in the horizon, may our paths cross again in the wordily field of honor.<br /><br />SQUARE, BACK TO THE COMIC STORE !!!<br />LET'S KILL SOME TROLL SCUM !<br /><br /> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CGMGwWWUkIICapt.

Because that's what they've been doing since day one".</b><br /><br />Superman is not the goddamn Batman and even the Batman can threat the bad guys the way Superman is doing with or without witnesses, there are more intelligent ways to gather evidences against a criminal. A confession under conditions like that has no validation in the court of law and yes in case you didn't notice when a "superhero" cross the line between investigation and revenge through punishment and torture doesn't matter who he/she is or who ever became the target of this self-proclaimed "justice", the act turns the person into a criminal. <br /><br /><b>"But these are the scumbags who MAKE the laws, do you really think they don't already have a shitload of loopholes prepared just for this? <br />The system is corrupt, people should finally wake-up and realize that.</b> <br /><br />And your suggestion is go straight against all laws, doing "justice" with our bare hands by any means possible because it's impossible to make a rich person goes to jail. Therefore we must forget the past 500 years at least of crime fighting development and go away the way into the world of Mad Max ??? Good luck buddy, in this case, if happens, is each people for it self and that means lots of murder, riots, rape and probably enslavement of the weaker because there will be no law enforcement able to help you in any sense because you abolish them you idiot. The rich can pay big guns to kill you so who will protect you against them even in a world with just a few Supermen but no law at all ???<br /><br /><b>Fixed, you can now see who I em <br />You are free to track me down and attempt to murder me if you like <br />If you wish, I'll mail you direct instructions on how to find me.</b><br /><br />Who do you think i am ? The Goddamn Batman or something ?? Why should i care about a nutcase like you ??? I even don't know why Lewis allowed you to post all that crap here and expose yourself to ridicule, at least when i do something like that i do as a character, like a side show with humorous intent, you sir on the other hand must see a doctor urgent, get a life ! <br /><br /><b>And I call bullshit on that <br />If nothing else, he saved the people from a building being demolished, WHILE THEY WERE STILL INSIDE, not to mention that this act was made on the order of the officials!<br /><br />Yeah, what a fair (fictional) system you are defending here.<br /> <br />The same people who set-up a train disaster, that Superman risked his life to save (since he can't take the hit yet) <br /><br />So yeah, you know shit, sir</b><br /><br />Superman still is a bully and in case you didn't notice those guys giving those orders and setting up the disasters are called "THE VILLAINS", saving peoples lifes is not enough to give you a good reputation when you use coercion and death threats against people you can't expose and denounce as criminals, doing "justice" with your bare hands when you can gather evidences against the guilty is not justice, it's called vengeance and superheroes can't act like that without making themselves "VILLAINS", if you can't figured out that or either the difference between fictional and real world you are a poor delusional little boy who thinks might equals power. If Superman start to act like judge, jury and executioner instantly condemning all those guilty according to his judgement to death then he is no better than Lex Luthor, Lex plays dirty and must end in jail sooner or later but at least he has legal justification to stop Superman because Superman acts like a threat, the only problem is the criminal ways he use to reach this goal. At this point is just a game of more evil versus less evil with potential victims every where.<br /><br />to be continued...Capt.

I didn't catch the comparison to this and the original Golden Age stories (because I'm still not a great authority on Superman), but here's what I saw. Supes is wearing just a T-shirt with his log on it and running fast instead of flying?? Goodnight, they're trying to integrate the Smallville TV show into the comics!!

By definition, the kind of personality that would become a personality has to have an angry streak and a sense of self-righteousness. The difference between the conventional Superman and this guy is that Morrison's new/old Clark acknowledges that the system is a mess and needs to be challenged from without, while the conventional Supes just gives humanity the chance to better themselves (and as long as a small minority of wealthy hold all the power, they won't be able to do so).Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17773416732192167277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5809126056034906096.post-59892607167431040392011-10-10T16:03:26.376-05:002011-10-10T16:03:26.376-05:00Can you be really considered a bully if you go aft...Can you be really considered a bully if you go after bullies? <br /><br />Remember, laws are made by those in power, and what good is defending a law established by the oppressors? <br /><br />Why should a scumbag be treated better just because he's rich or powerful enough to bend the law to their image? <br /><br />It makes perfect sense for a defender of truth and justice to go after those who abuse the system and hurt others in the process <br />The USA wouldn't exist without people like this. <br /><br />This is why I think that Action Comics Superman is the better hero <br />He does what is right instead of what is legalAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5809126056034906096.post-57819173948037837012011-10-10T13:26:01.448-05:002011-10-10T13:26:01.448-05:00I think you misunderstood the line in Green Arrow;...I think you misunderstood the line in Green Arrow; I've not read the comic, so I'm going purely by what you said in the video.<br /><br />You said... "people spend hours killing and maiming in video games every single day. Why should reality be any different for <b>these psychos</b>."<br /><br />Emphasis on that last bit. While I fully agree that the notion of video games turning everyone in serial killers is ridiculous, this is more of a special case... because she's talking about 'psychos', ie. people with actual mental issues. And well, saying that serial killers get inspiration for their deeds from their surroundings, be it literature, comics or video games is... well, completely sensible, really.<br /><br />The thing is, blaming video games for that is like blaming the Superman movies because someone with serious mental problems decided to jump out a window, thinking he could fly. Yes, the movie gave him the idea, but it's not the movie's fault, the person was sick, that's the main issue.marconius666https://www.blogger.com/profile/08312849305925170581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5809126056034906096.post-18541691368272352772011-10-10T09:26:41.953-05:002011-10-10T09:26:41.953-05:00quoting : "Argh, ok Mr. Linkara, I'm done...quoting : "Argh, ok Mr. Linkara, I'm done. I'm tired of you sounding angry and aggressive all the time. I dunno if you wanna sound manly or something, but it gets on my nerves watching your videos."<br /><br />You missed the point fox, Linkara a.k.a. Lewis Lovhaug really has an annoying high pitched tone at some points but it's all part of the show. The guy is an actor as well a critic and "acid reviewer" and despite the tone used he is probably the most manly among the three stooges' from TGWTG - that doesn't excise the fact you are gaining weight Lewis, cut off the soda now or you will never look like Rocky or even Mickey for that matter but that just my opinion. <br /><br />quoting "If there is anything this series thought me, it's that you have some pretty boring tastes" <br /><br />Could be worst, did you ever saw any Siskel & Ebert review ? Does guys praise a lot of crap and they pretend to be gentlemen and have fine tastes while Lewis is actually genuine. I may not agree with him about some stuff overly commented about but i respect the fact he don't bow easyly into temptation like me, most of the cheesy stuff is digestible for me including alien females disguised as strippers gathering intell to conquer the planet later.<br /><br />What can i say ? Most of humans are suckers, thanks god we have Linkara to save us from ourselves unless of course he snaps and decide to go all Rorschach on our throats, believe me sometimes he is not far away from that when in character.<br /><br />Anyway, Bright colors sucks !Capt.

A number of peer-reviewed studies/papers have claimed there is a link, and the American Psychological Association in 2005 issued <a href="http://www.apa.org/about/governance/council/policy/interactive-media.pdf" rel="nofollow">this</a>.<br /><br />I'm not saying the statement in the comic made sense, but there is a middle ground between that statement and the claim that there is NO link between media violence and real world violence.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
