The more Fantastic Four I can get the better.

No.

No.

Also, three movies? I'll have you all know that as far as I'm concerned, there are four movies.

In comic news that nobody wanted, Batman #50 is a big stinking pile of bullshit and I now feel similarly to @Bounce's hatred of Grant Morrison with Tom King.

Fuck that dude.

_{Still hasn't read any DC comics since the start of New 52}

Hey, at least Selina's still on the same goddamn planet as Bruce. Lois and Jon are off having space-adventures with not-dead-anymore Jor-El so Bendis doesn't have to write family scenes.

The Rebirth lineup was really great....for like a minute.

I was going to include that, but 1) good luck finding a way to watch it, and 2) it is clearly the superior Marvel movie, and thus immune to my mocking.

@Master Bruce What happend? Are you okay?

Basically, after building it up for a long time and providing some great forward momentum in their relationship, Batman and Catwoman's marriage is called off because Selina gets cold feet due to what amounts to a 12-year-old's understanding of what makes Bruce tick: She thinks that if she marries him, he'll be too happy to be Batman anymore and leaves Gotham. Despite the fact that Bruce has had several surrogate sons, a biological son, several surrogate daughters, and a ton of friends and allies that have enriched his life over the years and never hindered his ability to fight crime. The entire point of Batman is that he works through his pain and leaves it behind for the sake of others, otherwise he'd never leave the cave. Selina being his wife wouldn't have changed a damn thing about that, but King's an idiot who thinks he's proving a point.

I haven't read any of his Superman run yet, but that doesn't sound like something Bendis would do. Guy was the king of getting any superhero business concluded in a couple of pages so he could focus on workplace/family drama.

I've found it before on Youtube. Don't know if it's been removed, but it's shown up periodically.

She might aswell not be, given the amount of backtracking King managed to pull out of his ass in the span of one issue. She's not even the same character she's been for the last thirty-plus issues anymore, and it's for the dumbest "He has to be in pain all of the time to be Batman"-type of edgelordy bullshit reason imaginable.

Eh, I'll live. Just venting my nerd rage at a great storyline that was essentially rendered a giant marketing con for like an entire year.

Selina being his wife wouldn't have changed a damn thing about that, not to mention would've fixed alot of dumb repetition with the 'Bruce Wayne has a doomed relationship with some random woman' trope, but King's an idiot who thinks he's proving a point.

Sometimes I suspect that edicts from above are sometimes responsible for very unpopular twists in stories that threaten to change the status quo of big marque characters – and writers are made to wear those changes as if responsible themselves.
