And most people didn't think it would do more than 550.

WW gross without China is a great run.

Awesome. SS has surpassed most MCU films to date.

I'm hardly ever on, so I didn't notice you changed your name.

1st of all, bullshit.. I thought the name I just changed to for the last 30 days was part of the deal?? WTF is this???
LOL! Trying to run. I was the one to choose the name. It was in the old thread.

DC has very rarely done those kind of reboots. (even New 52 wasn't that kind of reboot). But it's certainly a soft reboot, with minor changes to characters seen across the board. Including the re-inclusion of Wally which drastically changes both the Flash and Titans series. The change in Green Arrow, Aquaman. While it's pretty easy to see this as a continuation, it's definitely different than what came before.
Also, Personal opinion, but the new Super Woman title was terrible. but that was the only bad Rebirth book I read
Things are always different, though. But as a whole it's still the same old same old.

LOL! BKB has yet to comply with our deal. After Suicide Squad destroyed GOTG opening weekend and sailed past The Incredible Hulk at the box office, he has yet to change his name to what I wanted. Figures.

Wonder Woman, too. New origin seems to be doing away with the "daughter of Zeus" thing that came out in Azarello's run.
(Didn't New52 Batman die, tho? I haven't read all of Snyder's run, but I seem to remember that being a thing, which is why Gordon ended up wearing the Bat Mecha Suit.)
Is it establishing a new status quo in an effort to provide a jumping on point for readers? If so, it's a reboot.It's the same Diana, though. Origins get changed all the time, doesn't really mean it's a reboot. And Geoff Johns commented that Rebirth as a WHOLE wasn't a reboot.
New 52 Batman didn't die. He was rejuvenated, IIRC. His origin is still the same.

If you're going on strict continuity terms, it sort of is. The status quo for characters is not the same as it was just prior to Rebirth. I.e. they are not (all) the same as their New 52 incarnations. But neither are they their pre-new 52 versions, either.
The only one I can think of is Superman, since they killed off DCnU Superman. What I meant is that it's not a company wide reboot on the scale of COIE. -

Kinda is.
How so? It's simply a relaunch. Not a reboot in the sense of Crisis on Infinite Earths or Flashpoint. Even though Flashpoint was a soft reboot.

You mean like what Marvel does?
LOL! Basically this. DC should also do mega events every 6 months, too.

Rebirth isn't a reboot, though.

DC Comics Humiliates Marvel With August 2016 Marketshare, As Diamond Sets A Record Month Of Sales
Marvel had almost a third more comics on sale in August than DC Comics. 93 comics to DC’s 75.
Yet DC Comics destroyed Marvel Comics on marketshare through August across the board, and placed 9 titles in the top 10.
Harley Quinn #1 took the no 1 spot, beating out All-Star Batman #1 and Suicide Squad #1 with more issues of Harley Quinn, Suicide Squad, Batman, Justice League and Supergirltaking up the rest of the top ten.
It took Amazing Spider-Man #16, kicking off their Dead No More event to get Marvel into the Top Ten. Everything else Marvel published was beaten by four comics starring Harley Quinn – and one by Supergirl.
Which yes, sounds insane. This is both the power of DC Rebirth, but also the lack of reverberation in the market from the poorly performing Civil War II crossover, Star Wars sales slipping and the Inhumans storylines having very little traction.
iJack will love this news! Great for DC, Rebirth is kicking butt.

I wonder who they'll use in Harley Quinn's spinoff. Poison Ivy? Catwoman? That would be great. DC/WB already has a team of female super heroes/ani-heroes already in the works. Awesome.
-
Damn, I can't wait for Affleck's solo movie. Joe as Deathstroke is awesome casting.
BTW, BKB, when are you going to change your name?

I honestly don't get the hate for SM3. People act like it's a bad movie when really it's not. It's just not as good as SM or SM2.
It was all kinds of awkwardness.

After three films, DCEU is now 2.2 B WW and counting.

It's still rather early, but I prefer MOS, SS, and BVS to the average MCU movie. I thought the Thor, IM 2 and 3, Cap (First 1), AOU were all below average.
I prefer 80's Marvel comics over a lot of DC, but overall, DC does have better comics. If you count Vertigo, it's a stomp in DC's favor.

I thought Agent Carter was one of them. Decent show, but I lose interest fast.

Other than DD, I find most of the Netflix shows to be boring.

Quality of TV is subjective, but DC/WB produces the longest running shows and the best animation on the small screen. It's not close, in that regard.

In terms of comics, DC is definitely more praised by critics and has won more awards than any other publisher.
Quote7. Publisher bragging rights go to DC Comics, which has published the most Eisner-winning comics and creators, with a staggering 250. Seventy-one of those are from Vertigo, and 33 from the discontinued WildStorm (which includes 23 from the America’s Best Comics line). Even excluding the Kirbys, DC is more than 100 trophies ahead of the next publisher on the list.

Lol, I remember when bkb Said suicide squad wouldn't make more than Hulk. Now it's made more than most MCU movies.
Its only been 3 movies and the DCEU already made over 2 billion.
