Looks fine, but it's not for me. I'm not a fan of how DC basically gave up on being DC to be The Other Marvel, but I can't expect WB to keep going in an unpopular direction just because I liked it better. Vox populi and all that.

Forum: Casual Interest Checks
Now that we completely neutral strangers who are totally unfamiliar with each other have expressed interest, mayhaps other completely neutral strangers unfamiliar with us can find interest.

Damn it. Toe nail man isn't going to be a thing now.
I mean, he still can be, just with normal toenails. Which I think somehow makes it that much worse.
ALSO THERES A THOUGHT. If all of Superman is invulnerable cause Yellow Sun. How does he cut his hair/shave/cut his nails?
This is one of those questions that they've come up with a bunch of different answers for, like the old "how come nobody recognizes Clark Kent is just Superman with glasses on" routine. In the Golden Age it was stated that his hair and nails just sorta stop growing at a certain length. The explanation that John Byrne used (and the one that @Lord Wraith mentioned) was that he bounces Heat Vision off of a mirror-- or, more accurately, a reflective piece of his Kryptonian spaceship that wouldn't just melt when he laser-eyes it.
The explanation that this version of Superman is using is that he can extend his gravitational field around anything he touches, temporarily imparting his own invulnerability onto anything or anyone in direct contact with his body. This would be how he can lift heavy objects without them collapsing under their own weight, how he can punch someone without their head splattering into a fine mist, how he can be intimate with Lois without accidentally tearing her to pieces, and for mundane purposes, how he can shave or cut his hair and/or toenails without destroying the clippers. I'd also mention that since hair and nails are effectively dead cells once they grow past a certain point, as soon as they're outside of Clark's invulnerability field they no longer possess his durability, so you couldn't, say, fashion some really gross weapon out of Superman's indestructible toenail clippings.
...with little Benjamin Disraeli Morden on the way.
One day @Master Bruce is going to make a banner, and nobody will change their mind and make him alter it.
(Trying to find the heart to tell them that I'm dropping Superman and picking up Jubilee)
Actually to be fair, now I think about it last year when I was in NYC chip and pin was a thing, whereas upstate NY it's still magnetic stripe. TO be fair, we're all behind Australia who's had contactless payment for years.
Now here's a question, how does Batman pay for his wares @Master Bruce? If he's buying his morning coffee does he just buy the coffee place? Or does he just tip really big?
I'd like to think that Bruce Wayne has no idea how to spend small. He just kinda goes through life like he's landing on spaces on a Monopoly board. "The food here sure is good, I'll take it!"

You joke, but when we had that Marvel street game from late last year I was gonna do street T'Challa.
I'm still salty that that game fizzled out after like two weeks. Also, I'm still bowled over by the fact that everyone wanted to do, like, street-level Doctor Strange or bring in SHIELD Agents and shit instead of going for Daredevil or Punisher or any character that would actually make sense.

Man, what was I thinking not giving Ultimate Diana this gem of a costume?
The fact that they did not name her 'The Wonder-sher' is a tremendous missed opportunity.
I just want another DC/Marvel crossover. And nothing Amalgam, please; a man can only take so much "Dark Claw" in his life...
I dunno, I kinda already got everything I'd ever want out of a DC/Marvel crossover:
