You will get a new Wonder Woman run planned to be a long and structured one - but it's written by Tom King
You will get a new Black Canary run - the thing is, it will be written by Tom King
You will get a series of some silver age partially forgotten characters you like - Adam Strange, Omega Men, Metamorpho - but here's the catch: they'll all be written by Tom King
Why all these times I got something I wanted from DC it was like meeting this wise and cruel Jinn trying to warn me about the potential harm of my heart's desires?
"Be careful what you wish for, little one. Now take this Tom King book" the creature whispers while I sob
#the stories might not be exclusively bad or even poorly written#but when they're good it's not because of the characters he's using but rather despite of the characters#he writes characters with a light disregard for their history and personality#that's why he's better when writing else world-like out of continuity stories#you can take woman of tomorrow for example it's not a bad story per se but it's not good because of kara's traits and personality#supergirl could be any powerful and hopeful character and the story would still work#kara's own side characters are there only as an after thought comet's appearance in the story is almost random#comet deserved better#i wanted ww black canary and adam strange stories for the characters and not to be used merely as a prompt#i do think he's a very gimmicky writer too i used to enjoy his stories before#now i feel like the tone is just predictable and uninteresting i feel like i've read them already#i don't judge the readers though some ppl are attached to his writing they can be powerful tales but they're not really for me anymore#i miss the time when all tom king was writing was batman bc i don't care about his titles lol#tom king#wonder woman#black canary#adam strange#omega men#danger street#metamorpho#supergirl#batman#commentary#dc comics#dc#comics#text#fandom

Ryand'r through the years
Courtesy of New Teen Titans Annual vol 1 #1 (1982), Omega Men Annual vol 1 #2 (1985), New Teen Titans vol 2 #22 (1986), Teen Titans Spotlight vol 1 #15 (1987), Invasion vol 1 #1 (1988), Titans vol 1 #18 (2000), Justice League of America vol 2 # 32 (2009), R.E.B.E.L.S. vol 2 #4 (2009), and Supergirl vol 7 #8 (2019).
I really wish DC would do more with Starfire, including spending more time with a family member who's never tried to harm her. Here's hoping Ryand'r makes an appearance again soon. Hoping he has his JLA design or something close to it.

Shawn McManus Omega Men House Ad Illustration Original Art (DC, 1984) Source
“Thought to be produced for a house ad or promotional poster, this piece from 1984 features Primus, Kalista, Tigorr, and Broot, all whomping on a giant robot.”
If anyone finds this ad in the wild…

...shit. Ok, this is where I show my ass as a fake DC fan and admit I have never known anything about the Omega Men beyond the fact that they exist. And I don't know how to tag this cover... Action Comics 535

Yeah omega men (2015) was pretty ok but it was soooooo fucking hard to read.
I wish Tom let Barnaby do something else instead of just 9 grid panel pages because his few wide spread and dynamic ones were really good.
My other wish was that we could understand what the hell the aliens are talking about, what you weren't allowed to do <this> for letters anymore?
Also Tom's politics really thought he was doing something here huh.
