It's what?
I've read the first two issues of Batman 89 and now I'm mad I didn't wait for the first story to finish before I jumped in. It fucking rules so far.
1. It's taking the asshole Batman vigilante fans and doing something FAR more realistic with them.
2. Harvey Dent's ethnicity is incredibly important to the story.
3. Batman's realizing he's part of the problem.
I'm only two issues in and I'm already mad that this wasn't the actual Batman 3.
Oh shit, I just came to edit this, apparently the writer is literally the writer of Batman and Batman Returns so this is as legit a true sequel to those movies as anything.

I guess DC is getting into the NFT game?

I didn't register for fandome, but I got a free NFT code in email today. Maybe it's because I signed up to DC Universe on my roku last year some time? At the time, it was the only way to stream the Harley Quinn animated series.
Whatever. I own a couple free NFTs now that I don't seem to be able to do anything with. Maybe one day I'll be able to trade it for a few pennies when they allow trading of them. (shrug)
DC will give away free superhero NFTs to people who register for its FanDome event
The NFTs will drop October 5th

I've mentioned my headcanon about Clark, baseball, and smashed radios. He single-handedly kept the Kansas radio repair industry afloat.
New headcanon: Pa got fed up with the repair bills, so he made Clark learn electronics repair. During those losing seasons, he got a LOT of practice.

Batman fears only one person. And that person is... Lois Lane. She scary.

The more I read about Dan Didio, the more I'm glad he was fired. Just...just a TERRIBLE editor in chief, okay writer but a HORRIBLE editor in chief.
Where are you reading about him? Got a link? What is it saying?
That's basically just Injustice which I thought was pretty good

That was my thought, reading that thread... "Superman is not a dictator!" uhhhhh you already made that story, it's called Injustice.
YEAH but...not as an Elseworld, at least I don't think. MAIN Superman.
If not,just Didio rehashing old stuff as expected.

Hold up, since when is putting ketchup on hot dogs a bad thing? Ketchup on steak, yeah, but hot dogs?
Just ask anyone from Chicago. It's blasphemy.
Heinz learns why you don't mess with Chicago's strict hot dog tradition
Heinz tried to trick Chicagoans into putting ketchup on their hot dog. Reaction on social media was swift and fierce.

And this is why Chicago will never be more than the 2nd City. 
Traditionally, @ThatNickGuy, a "Chicago Dog" contains specific ingredients like mustard and a poppyseed bun. Hot dogs, in general, can be enjoyed with whatever the hell you want to put on them. Like ketchup? Have at it! Personally I like mustard, but ketchup is normal unless you're looking at a specific recipe.

Could be worse, I guess. When I was a kid, people thought it was disgusting that I put peanut butter on my hot dogs.And this is why Chicago will never be more than the 2nd City.

Okay, let's not take things too far.
Hot dogs, like all other sausages, need to be enjoyed boiled in beer and grilled to just the right level of doneness before being put on a good sized brat bun with kraut and Secret Stadium Sauce.
Sauerkraut is absolutely disgusting. I can enjoy hot dogs with almost any version of their “normal” toppings, but not kraut.
And Chicago-style pizza is delicious… so long as you don’t really think of it as pizza.
The “Worst Regional Style of Pizza” Award still goes to California, though.

I used to think I hated sauerkraut, but then I learned that there's a huge difference between brined and fermented. Soaking cabbage in brine of vinegar, salt, and such results in a very different flavor from fermenting it with lactobacillus bacteria. Turns out I just don't like acetic acid much, but lactic acid is tasty to me. Same goes to a lesser degree for pickles. (Though I do like pickled red onions with vinegar, maybe because they're not brined as long.)
Article should be retitled "Heinz debuts successful viral marketing campaign."Just ask anyone from Chicago. It's blasphemy.

"Justice League vs. Legion of Super Heroes" came out last week, and I'm UTTERLY CONFUSED...when the hell its supposed to take place. For one, Clark's hair is all black whereas in the Warworld saga his hair is greying a tad, and if it was JUST that I'd be fine...buuuuuuuuuuuuut Wonder Woman is ALSO there, despite the fact that she...only came back recently after Death Metal-UGH! This is why people have trouble getting into comics, the timelines continuously suck at meshing, and its just damn confusing.
ALSO-its a Bendis...ensemble book so...yeah, feel free to skip. At least 20 different characters talking to each other in a single book, OOF.

Do you think the superhero Cyborg ever gets blamed for shit that the Cyborg Superman did? Like some random bystander is like "Thank you for saving those people, it's good to see you turning things around after destroying Coast City."
"That wasn't me, that was someone pretending to be Superman."
"That's the right attitude, you're a new person now. The old you doesn't exist anymore. Still, it was pretty awful of you to try to blame that on Superman. Pretty good disguise though, fooled a lot of people!"
He probably gets blamed for stuff Metallo does, too.

Probably better than the number of people that ask if he's still got a dick.
That's why he leaked that porn video of him and Jinx himself, to forestall all of the questions
Of all the people here, I knew @GasBandit would get the reference lol
