The more I read this the more I realize just how much Joe Kelly used THIS book as an inspiration for how he wrote Plastic Man. Even the coma dreams Plas mentions here were used in JLA.
I have to admit, Miller does seem like he’s having fun with Plastic Man, artistically. I think he actually might be a fan in general, given that he actually wrote Plas as being a founding JLA member in his All Star Batman and Robin book
Batman casually letting people die in an alien invasion, even though he has heroes who CAN HELP, is very out of character for any good Batman. Like WTF.
Oh hey, something actually resembling backgrounds, and detail.
Too bad I’m distracted by the psychic power seemingly displayed by these too.
Also they have a daughter
4 pages of satire talking heads on some… I guess news show or something? Except it’s got tons of random people who only show up once? It’s all so random, and the fact that they’re mostly close ups give, again, a lack of actual awareness of where this is taking place
LMFAO screw this book. Batman seems to know that Superman is essentially being held hostage by Luthor and Brainiac, and seemingly knows that he has no choice in the matter, but still has everyone attack the crap out of him and make him look stupid and beat on him. Wth
I just realized that Carrie’s Catgirl costume is now all grey
There’s a black and white version of this book being sold, and I’m genuinely curious as to how it looks, given that 50% of every detail, including most backgrounds, seems to lie within the colors
Ngl I do enjoy the idea of an older Lex Luthor being a little troll
There was a good amount of satirical news segments in DKR, but they often were kept within their own “average comic style” panels, often smaller and provided commentary, but not too much, of the world in the story.
