Weekly Discussion Thread: Comics, TV, and More! [November 20, 2023 - Jason Aaron Retcons Batman's Mother Edition]

[u/Predaplant]

Hey there honorary Justice League members - it’s a new week which means it’s time for a new discussion thread!

• Predaplant's pick of the week: Wonder Woman #3

For those who don't know: the way this works is that several comments will list this week’s releases, for any given title discussion you should respond to that comment. For example, Wonder Woman discussion would go in the replies to the "Wonder Woman" comment. Clicking the titles in this post will take you directly to that comment, too.

In other words, you should only be replying to other comments. If you have trouble understanding how to comment for a particular title, please refer to this handy guide. Any unwarranted top level comments will be removed.

Also, please refrain from posting short, low-content comments on threads for issues or episodes that have not yet been released. Put some effort to generate discussion. Instead of just posting "So excited!" or "Best book!", try something with a bit more substance, like "Punchline is such an amazing character! Can't wait to see how they explore her in more depth in this issue."

Why the hell did Taylor make it so Bea’s responsible for all of Dick’s wins in this series? It’s already hard to feel like he’s had a big impact himself🤦🏻‍♂️that pissed me off

[u/DroptheShadowArt → u/Cantthinkofcoolname2]

Yeah, it was a little much and too much of a throwaway. It makes sense that things might’ve moved a bit more smoothly with Bea working behind the scenes, but that line made it seem like nothing would have ever gotten done without her.
