modern lichen
#

The batmobile looks so cool

crimson lance
#

#

I didnt expect to like such a drastic change but i do

pale tapir
#

The Batmobile looks like they ripped it out of TAS

#

/a muscle car

modern lichen
#

I was about to say that yeah

#

Exactly

pale tapir
#

Like the two had a baby

crimson lance

TAS as in ?

The DCEU Batmobile was more like that

crimson lance
#

i got hbo max and it has a shit ton of batman stuff to see

modern lichen
#

I do recommend a watch will

crimson lance
#

I saw Batman Year one a few days ago

modern lichen
#

It's worth it

crimson lance
#

was alright, prefered the comic alot more

pale tapir
#

Watch Under the Red Hood

modern lichen
#

The comic is better yeah

pale tapir
#

That's one of the single best pieces of Batman content ever

crimson lance
#

Ill probably not watch any of the movies until after i read their comics

modern lichen
#

Mask of the Phantasm >

crimson lance
#

but the tv shows like batman beyond and stuff

#

ill watch those eventually

modern lichen
#

Watch Mask of the Phantasm will, it's not related to the series much either

#

Other than the characters, designs and locations but it's completely original

crimson lance
#

I havent read a comic book since year one a few months ago

#

need to get back to it

modern lichen
#

Doesn't bear any watching of the series

#

Ah

#

If you want me to suggest some, I'll be glad to help

#

Especially with Bat stuff

crimson lance
#

nah i got ideas already

pale tapir
#

It doesn't yeah. And ||It's the best Batman origin story I've seen|| Mask of the Phantasm

crimson lance
#

lucifer, killing joke, red hood, etc

#

modern lichen

copper phoenix
#

diiscord moment

tawdry ledge
#

I was hella confused

gloomy crown
#

It’s cool I didn’t get what it was until my 4th year using discord

modern lichen
#

Ignorance moment spice

#

No problem tho

#

Anyways

#

Batman GOAT

tawdry ledge
#

Oh heyy aren’t y’all the ones who talk about stormlight? Lol

#

I KNEW IT, @gloomy crown is reading it bc you guys are reading it LOL

modern lichen
#

Sep doesn't read stormlight

tawdry ledge
#

He is now 👀

modern lichen
#

He hasn't read it

tawdry ledge
#

He told me LMFAO

gloomy crown
#

Still on chap 1

#

Lol

modern lichen
#

YO

#

Lets go

gloomy crown
#

And yeah I heard about it here lol

tawdry ledge
#

||Do you guys feel like Kaladin is op and is such a perfect characer?||

modern lichen
#

Can't wait for you to join the hype train like us

tawdry ledge
#

Like what are his flaws LOL

modern lichen
#

Before any of that, just tag

outer tulip
gloomy crown
#

Idk but talk about em in tags so I don’t get spoiled

outer tulip
#

Wow someone behind me? 👀

copper phoenix
#

kirei what chapter you at?

tawdry ledge
tawdry ledge
outer tulip
#

61

modern lichen
#

Way of Kings || Kaladin is depressed, has low self esteem and is deeply guilty about losing his squad and his brother ||

tawdry ledge
# outer tulip 61

Omg that sounds like a lot lol idr how many chapters this book has

outer tulip
copper phoenix
#

wok || this is a first, I never heard anyone call kaladin a gary stu before lmao ||

modern lichen
#

I'm surprised as well

#

Because that's completely wrong

copper phoenix
#

takes some insane amount of speedreading to miss everything about a character

tawdry ledge
modern lichen
#

Bro...

tawdry ledge
#

What is gary stu?

#

I DID NOT SPEED READ

outer tulip
#

WoK || kaladin isn’t perfect at all ||

tawdry ledge
#

I was talking about this to someone else who’s reading the books too. ||But idk he’s still a great character overall||

#

Wok B||ut he’s such an alpha male LMAO||

copper phoenix
#

bruh

outer tulip
#

WoK || he’s a great warrior and a great medic, but he’s arrogant and it costs him ||

modern lichen
#

Way of Kings || he's suffering from deep guilt because of the trust he put in others to such a degree he lost everything, he has developed an irrational hatred of lighteyes that's gonna hinder him and the circumstances came about because of his flaws dawg ||

tawdry ledge
#

WOK Also,|| I still don’t fully understand the story of the oathstone and the asssssin and I thought that was a really neat plot device||

modern lichen
#

Man...

tawdry ledge
#

Ok thanks for shedding some light on his character 🙏

modern lichen
#

Way of Kings || the way he's portrayed, he's definitely not an alpha male, dude is a nervous wreck most of the time ||

tawdry ledge
modern lichen
#

Way of Kings || most of the time he's depressed and down||

copper phoenix
#

wok || kaladin has many flaws and they're always gonna become a huge plot point in the books ||

outer tulip
#

WoK || I can see how one would consider him an alpha male the way he ran bridge four ||

tawdry ledge
#

WOK I just remembers ||his name as szeth son son valano? Or something ||

copper phoenix
#

wok || idk what alpha male means in this context unless you mean the natural born leader thing ||

outer tulip
#

WoK || yeah szeth ||

modern lichen
#

Way of Kings || the oathstone is simple to understand, Szeth cannot disobey anyone who possesses the oathstone, Taravangian has the oathstone ||

#

Simple

tawdry ledge
modern lichen
#

It will be explained eventually, not much hurry

copper phoenix
#

rafo MoriaPepega

modern lichen
#

For now, the function it has is all the information we have

outer tulip
#

WoK || I also wanna know the consequence if he disobeys ||

copper phoenix
#

everything in stormlight is explained, I can guaratee you

tawdry ledge
#

||What confused me about the book was the amount of interludes chapters and how it changes perspective and characters. I def forgot almost all of them and how they’re reevant to the main story|| WOK

modern lichen
#

Sanderson explaining shit now is just gonna make everything bloated, it will be explained

#

WoK || All of the interludes are relevant ||

outer tulip
#

WoK || some of the interlude stories just came and went, idk what’s that’s about ||

copper phoenix
#

interludes are a way of worldbuilding and explaning some bits and pieces of magic systems

#

it will make sense later

modern lichen
#

Interludes all play into the story eventually

tawdry ledge
#

Wok ||I remember reading about this one interlude where a guy was drunk af and naked on the street haha idk what that was about ||

outer tulip
#

WoK || if they mention the interlude (one shot) characters again… I probably won’t recognize them off the bat ||

modern lichen
#

You don't have to, they contain elements relevant to the story

#

It all ties up

#

That's the beauty of this series

tawdry ledge
outer tulip
#

I feel that

modern lichen
#

Everything ties up

outer tulip
tawdry ledge
outer tulip
#

Yeah that one

#

It was good worldbuilding indeed

#

There was another one that was kinda interesting that I’m not remembering

tawdry ledge
#

Those are the only two I remember 😂

copper phoenix
#

another thing

tawdry ledge
#

||I liked the flashbacks too with young Kaladin|| WOK

copper phoenix
#

the epigraphs

#

they contain some really useful info

tawdry ledge
#

Ok anyone here read wheel of time? 🥺👉👈 currently reading book 1

copper phoenix
#

but again it's not something you'll get right now, but it's nice to go back and reread then when you can

tawdry ledge
#

Tryn prepare for the show

copper phoenix
#

I read everything

#

how do you find it so far

tawdry ledge
outer tulip
copper phoenix
#

yea I eat long series for breakfast

#

bruh

#

bruh

modern lichen
#

Wow

copper phoenix
#

explain urself

tawdry ledge
#

WOT i||m only on chapter 5 and i’m still in the two rivers lmaoo so far I kinda dislike Robert Jordans but writing style||

copper phoenix
#

wot || whats wrong with his style? ||

modern lichen
#

First time hearing a person say they don't like the stuff sando wrote for the ending of WOT

tawdry ledge
#

Ppl said the ending was good thoo

modern lichen
copper phoenix
#

tbh harsh there are some things he didn't do great, he himself acknowledged it

#

but overall it was solid

brave orbit
#

People shitting on my boy kal UsoppSus

tawdry ledge
modern lichen
#

I mean, people do say it's pretty much satisfactory

tawdry ledge
#

Haha idk, Brandon and Andresz writing style better for suuure

copper phoenix
tawdry ledge
#

Don’t get me started with GEORGE RR MARTIN 🤮

modern lichen
#

I pray you don't read Tolkien or Erickson

tawdry ledge
#

I hate his writing

modern lichen
#

Martin's writing style is the simplest there is

copper phoenix
#

bruh

modern lichen
#

What the fuck

#

Man is just direct in his pose

copper phoenix
#

too many hot takes this is a fucking sauna rn

tawdry ledge
copper phoenix
tawdry ledge
#

It’s like 🤌🤌🤌

brave orbit
crimson lance
#

The sopranos season Four episode Three || Good episode, I like Tony's rant at the end about Columbus and italian pride and stuff ||

tawdry ledge
#

George r r martin uses FLOWERY writing. Complex and difficult terminology

modern lichen
#

If you can't handle even a bit of complexity, better not read most fantasy lmao

copper phoenix
#

there is nothing bad with that

tawdry ledge
#

I aint tryn open a dictionary when reading a novel

modern lichen
#

Martin? Flowery?

#

Where

#

Show me at least a passage

tawdry ledge
#

When reading WOK, i never had to look up meanings of words

copper phoenix
#

they're just different styles but that doesn't make one better than the other

modern lichen
#

Martin is the opposite of flowery lmaoo

copper phoenix
#

it's like saying art is better than function and vice-versa

tawdry ledge
#

Like it was easy to read and I recommend it to ppl who’ve never read a full fledged high fantasy novel

modern lichen
#

Nah spice, Martin uses some of the simplest language I've read too

#

I don't understand this lmaoo

tawdry ledge
#

Honestly it took me awhile to read A game of thrones, like the first book

modern lichen
#

I'm very sorry for you

#

If you found that difficult

tawdry ledge
#

I was dreading it man. I’m glad I read it tho bc the show was really faithful to the books

modern lichen
#

Better off reading only Sanderson then

tawdry ledge
#

I’m also reading the witcher

brave orbit
#

We got a breach in the stormlight club 😔

modern lichen
#

You won't function reading other fantasy if that's the case or metric for your enjoyment

tawdry ledge
#

Andresz writing style is def easier than martin imo

tawdry ledge
tawdry ledge
brave orbit
#

BennGun take back the kal hate

modern lichen
#

I don't even understand this criticism, so you don't like it because it has some complex language?

brave orbit
#

🔫

modern lichen
#

Martin is the opposite of flowery

#

Or having purple prose

copper phoenix
#

wot ending || tbh mat is the only example and he acknowledges he didn't know how to deal with him, since then he has come a long way into breaking out of his sando-esque characters ||

modern lichen
#

I can say for sure

tawdry ledge
modern lichen
#

?

#

This is just such weak criticism

#

Martin prides himself on details

outer tulip
#

That happens in stormlight too

tawdry ledge
#

Did you read all the books that are currently out?

outer tulip
#

It doesn’t bother me

modern lichen
#

I've read every single one

gloomy crown
#

My writing teachers would jizz if they got a page just describing a hallway

copper phoenix
modern lichen
#

I have the box set

brave orbit
tawdry ledge
#

Ok I was actually reading both WOK and AGoT at the same time

modern lichen
#

Game of Thrones is very direct in its approach to descriptions

tawdry ledge
#

And I just had a much easier time reading WoK

gloomy crown
#

Oh wok is the book im on

#

I actu forgot the name for a while

copper phoenix
#

I don't have a problem with descriptive writing but I'd much rather just get straight to the point of a story

modern lichen
#

Your criticism of Martin is still very weak my friend lmao

tawdry ledge
outer tulip
gloomy crown
#

I don’t give a shit about the texture of your lamps

tawdry ledge
modern lichen
#

Spice it's not even that, I assume you've read ASOIAF, where is it that Martin uses flowery language?

tawdry ledge
#

His use if complex terminology that you dont ever see everyday

modern lichen
#

For the most part, the prose is as direct as it can come

gloomy crown
#

Lol harsh

brave orbit
gloomy crown
#

Most people don’t know what a prose even is

tawdry ledge
#

Well I watch a lot of BOOK REVIEW vidoes on YouTube

modern lichen
#

It's set in a medieval society modelled after the real world medieval times

tawdry ledge
#

And lemme tell you

#

The argument favours my side haha

copper phoenix
#

yea flowery writing would feel really weird in the setting of asoiaf

modern lichen
#

Show me those videos

#

I'll see them too

brave orbit
#

but still

#

I think that's mostly in OB and ROW

tawdry ledge
#

You guys watch merphy naphier? Shes one of my faves

modern lichen
#

I have the books with me right now, I can take a picture and show you passages

outer tulip
#

Yeah like even the action stuff is hella descriptive not even just the settings

tawdry ledge
#

I def remember her saying she doesnt like martin’s writing style

#

Also she’s a major one piece stan now

outer tulip
#

|| like szeth’s fights and the bridge runs || wok

modern lichen
#

It's her preference

tawdry ledge
outer tulip
#

It can go on and on but I like that in the story telling

outer tulip
modern lichen
#

Man, this is just tiring me out

brave orbit
modern lichen
#

I'm going to go geek out about Batman

#

Good night

tawdry ledge
#

Ok so for those who read eye of the world. When does it get good?

copper phoenix
#

lmao

brave orbit
#

Watch the tv show

tawdry ledge
#

Rn nothing is really happening 😭

modern lichen
#

You have a task set out for yourself spice

brave orbit
#

Just wait for the show 😠

modern lichen
#

Good luck my friend

copper phoenix
brave orbit
copper phoenix
#

tag

tawdry ledge
#

||Like we just met the gleeman thom merrilin|| WOT

copper phoenix
#

thats really damn early lol

brave orbit
#

didnt they say chapter 5

copper phoenix
#

at least finish the first act before asking when does it get good

tawdry ledge
#

Did y’all see this?

outer tulip
#

Yeahh

tawdry ledge
#

Thoughts? I thought some part of it were a little cheesy ngl

outer tulip
#

Oh wait no

#

Just the normal trailer

tawdry ledge
#

But I don’t mind that cast at all.

brave orbit
#

really hyped

copper phoenix
#

wot ending || yea stormlight is another beast and I agree that I miss jordan's style but brando did the best he could and it was solid imo ||

barren temple
#

Spice

#

Nvm

#

I was gonna make a stupid joke

copper phoenix
brave orbit
#

I think he will fix issues in the tv show

tawdry ledge
#

I still don’t understand ||“nynaeve’a character. Like what is a wisdom and why do they exist. Why is she important?|| WOT

#

They don’t really explain it descriptively but I think its too early for me to judge

outer tulip
barren temple
#

That's a name I haven't heard in a while

#

China Ann McClain

outer tulip
#

Yeah from black lightning lol

barren temple
#

Wonder what she's been doing

copper phoenix
barren temple
#

Oh yeah

outer tulip
#

Yeah I haven’t watched it in a long time

barren temple
#

To me she's still the girl from ant farm lol

outer tulip
#

Lmaoo

#

I remember her from house of Paynes

tawdry ledge
#

So season 1 of WOT hasn’t been released yet but they’re already currently filming season 2 and one of the major characters has been recasted

#

I think that totally sucks

brave orbit
#

...Why does it matter that much lol

tawdry ledge
#

Like i just wanna know what happened?

copper phoenix
#

I head they're totally cutting scenes of the character in season 1 too

#

expected tbh

tawdry ledge
copper phoenix
#

because they don't want to make the actor change feel jarring I would assume

tawdry ledge
brave orbit
#

There are 7 more seasons

copper phoenix
#

and he's not that relevant early

tawdry ledge
#

Truuu

brave orbit
#

The s1 actor is irrelevant in the grand scheme of things

copper phoenix
#

why are you rooting for him since you don't even know who he is yet lol

brave orbit
#

But it's unfortunate it happened

tawdry ledge
#

It’s like when they changed the actor for that one character in game of thrones

tawdry ledge
copper phoenix
#

bruh

copper phoenix
#

man is already outraged for something he don't even know yet

tawdry ledge
barren temple
#

Did you name yourself pumpkin spice latte because white women love you?

#

Sorry it got out

tawdry ledge
#

Like imagine if Wheel Of time show became as huuuge as GOT, these actors will be famous

brave orbit
#

Rhythm of war

tawdry ledge
#

And he lost this chance of fame

copper phoenix
#

ye funk

#

you don't know the reason kirei

barren temple
tawdry ledge
#

Yeahh no one does. But i just like to sympathy I guess LOL

#

Did you also read The Witcher? 🥺👉👈

copper phoenix
#

no but I played the game and watched the show

tawdry ledge
#

Absolutely hated the show

#

LMFAOO

copper phoenix
#

it was alright, nothing groundbreaking but it was a fun watch

outer tulip
#

The show is just okay for me too

tawdry ledge
#

Netflix did it dirty ngl. There was no exposition and no explanation of the timeline, etc.

copper phoenix
#

I think if it wasn't for henry it would totally be shit

tawdry ledge
#

All these events don’t feel as important if you dont know what’s happening

outer tulip
#

Nightmare of the Wolf was phenomenal imo

tawdry ledge
#

I read the first book and it made a lot more sense

sonic quail
outer tulip
#

Whatta downgrade!

spring patrol
tawdry ledge
#

I have a hot take on WOK

#

Ok not a hot take but I lowkey want someone to spoil a minor detail for me

brave orbit
#

RAFO

tawdry ledge
#

WOK ||as much as I loved the story and the events that played out. I was kinda hoping to see more of our characters explore other parts of this world, expect we just saw them isolated to just one area of the world throughout the whole first book. Are we gonna explore more of an “adventure” style plot in the next books?”||

outer tulip
#

I be pushin aka and fed to give me spoilers lol… you won’t get em!

tawdry ledge
#

But then again|| “the story is focused on a war between two nations||

copper phoenix
#

rafo MoriaPepega

tawdry ledge
brave orbit
#

Will just say that since it's part of the book

tawdry ledge
copper phoenix
#

how much stuff are you reading atm

outer tulip
#

Yeah I get what you mean

#

I guess that’s why the series is so long though

tawdry ledge
#

WOK ||“shallan’s POV was my least favourite out of the 3||

brave orbit
outer tulip
#

noooo

tawdry ledge
copper phoenix
outer tulip
#

Wok || I loved Shallans part… it was witty snd fun ||

tawdry ledge
#

OK I JUST REMEMBER ONE OF THE INTERLUDES

#

WOK “i||t was the one where they were fighting the void things? I forgot the name but it was a village and there were ppl fighting monsters to protect the village and its ppl||

brave orbit
#

I don't think that happens lol

tawdry ledge
#

It does!!

#

Omg I need to look it up

outer tulip
#

Wok || wasn’t that Dalinar vision? ||

brave orbit
#

^

tawdry ledge
#

I totally didnt explain it correctly

#

What chapter was that?

outer tulip
#

Has to be somewhere in part 2

#

But not sure exactly

tawdry ledge
#

I’m thinking of just watching a youtube summary of book 2 of stormlight rather than reading it 😂😂 like I just wanna know what happens

#

😩😩

#

Like I want all the events summarized rather than reading a 1000+ page novel

glacial jetty
tawdry ledge
#

Bruh it took me a year to finish WOK

copper phoenix
#

aight I think I had enough for now, good luck y'all

tawdry ledge
#

I couldve read it all in a month tho

#

Bc when I was reading WOK. After about 500 pages, animal crossing new horizons officially released LMFAOO

#

💀💀

outer tulip
#

☠️

#

I’ve just accepted the fact it’ll probably take me over a year to catch up to Stormlight

brave orbit
#

Journey is what matters, no matter how long it takes

tawdry ledge
#

If you dedicate at least 100 pages a day. It can take just a couple months

outer tulip
#

Haha

tawdry ledge
#

The next book is released in like 2023

outer tulip
#

Oh really

brave orbit
#

yes, he is starting to write it in january

tawdry ledge
#

100 pages of stormlight takes me more than 2 hours to read

#

Or at least 2 hours

outer tulip
#

That’s exciting

tawdry ledge
#

I’m not a slow reader, I just want to fully comprehend what I’m reading lol

brave orbit
#

I've read Way of kings in 35 days, Words of radiance in 17, Oathbringer in 21, Rhythm of war in 25

glacial jetty
#

You keep track?

#

Jeez

brave orbit
glacial jetty
#

I just know I took under 2 weeks for all of them except oathbrinher I think

outer tulip
#

You went ham on wor lol

tawdry ledge
#

I’m actually a really fast reader but I’m lowkey illiterate af 💀💀 idk if that makes sense LOL

brave orbit
#

Edgedancer took me one day, Dawnshard took me 6 ish

copper phoenix

It's not a symbol, it's a warning

outer tulip
#

i just wanna see how it can possibly surpass batman begins/dark knight

dim hedge
#

Be careful on the internets good sirs

#

Lego sets are out

modern lichen
#

The Dark Knight ain't even a proper Batman story

#

Begins is a better Batman story

#

TDK is just a better movie

outer tulip
#

a lot of that credit goes to ledger's joker imo

modern lichen
#

And I remember so much vitriol towards his casting lmao

#

The first trailer came out and literally froze the audience in place

#

Iconic

#

Now Pattinson did the same thing

#

As a Batman story I already know it's gonna surpass The Dark Knight

#

We'll have to see if it does as a film of its own

outer tulip
#

yeah idk the story that well but I'm hoping its really good

#

generally I wouldn't want an origin story cause we already got that but batman begins origin story was so enjoyable (with the whole training scenes and all that) i honestly wouldn't mind another interpretation

modern lichen
#

It's not an origin story

#

That's been confirmed

#

It's Batman in his second year

oh okay, intriguing

#

Thinking about diving full force into star wars, is there anywhere I should start besides the films?

modern lichen
#

Well, you need to check the films

#

At least the first two trilogies to start off

#

And then you can go ham into star wars

burnt lake
#

I see

#

Just wondering if there's any comics of graphic novels or tv series I need to check out in an order of some kind

#

In like a full universe type beat ig

modern lichen
#

Nah, watch the films and then you can go into the universe entirely

burnt lake
#

I see

#

I recall owning a graphic novel when I was younger

#

Someone with a purple saber

modern lichen
#

Windu

#

Samuel L. Jackson

burnt lake
#

Hmmmm yeah

#

Star wars Mace Windu GN

#

I think it was this one

#

MomoNotLikeThis it got water damaged from a leaking roof

modern lichen
#

What a badass

#

Star, watch this

burnt lake
#

Oh?

#

👀

modern lichen
#

This is not canon anymore in the wider saga but it's so cool

burnt lake
#

Oh I seee

#

Tbh I don't really care about canon as long as I'm enjoying it

#

But it seems very badass, yeah.

#

Although from my memory I thought Clone Wars was in a 3D animation

modern lichen
#

They later made a 3D Clone Wars movie and a show

#

Both of which fucking rock

#

They're both great

burnt lake
#

I seee

#

I recall watching the series on cable at some point but never paying attention

#

And then there's like a new series that was on Disney XD or something

modern lichen
#

It's not really a linear story there as well

burnt lake
#

And it had similar 3D design

modern lichen
#

That's rebels

burnt lake
#

Yeah that's the one

#

I'm guessing the new trilogy movies aren't good? I mean since you didn't mention them

modern lichen
#

Well, I don't like them much

#

They're not coherent

#

The prequels are bad too

#

Each movie of the prequels are worse than each movie of the sequels

#

But as a whole, the prequels do tell a coherent story

burnt lake
#

Hmmm

#

But there's the anime that came out recently as well

modern lichen
#

Which the sequels don't, the overall narrative is a shambles

burnt lake
#

And I heard it got mixed opinions from fans

modern lichen
#

That's Star Wars Visions

#

Thats an anthology of anime shorts based on Star Wars and its universe

burnt lake
#

Hmmmm

modern lichen
#

One off stories entirely unconnected

burnt lake
#

I don't see why fans would hate it though

#

If it's not like a part of any narrative

modern lichen
#

Because Star Wars fans are idiots

#

They don't like cool stuff

burnt lake
#

Lmao

modern lichen
#

Star Wars fans are the original toxic fanbase

#

Alongside comic book fans

burnt lake
#

Damn

modern lichen
#

Star Wars fans don't like anything star wars tbh

burnt lake
#

Hmmmmmm

#

So like... The first 3 movies

#

And that's it

#

Or rather the universe

modern lichen
#

First 6

burnt lake
#

I'm assuming the prequels split the fans in that regard

modern lichen
#

Then the supplementary material, like Rogue One, Clone Wars series and the Mandalorian

#

Nah, the prequels suck

#

Revenge of the Sith is decent

#

But the first two prequel movies are dookie

#

They do tell a coherent story

burnt lake
#

Hmmmm

modern lichen
#

And then the comics and other material

#

Star Wars comics are great

burnt lake
#

Say you could watch the first 3 films, and anything after that is more or less emphasis on what happens before and after

modern lichen
#

First 6 is optimal

burnt lake
#

Could you take it like that

modern lichen
#

Because that's a complete story

burnt lake
#

Hmmm

#

Man western series are confusing

modern lichen
#

Star, SW is pretty straightforward

#

First 6 films and then you get into the wider stuff

#

That's about it

burnt lake
#

I mean how it's like a vast ocean

modern lichen
#

Lemme know once you've started watching

#

It's pretty easy to follow through tho for Star Wars, the rest I can see where you're coming from

burnt lake
#

In eastern stuff like manga and anime it's super straight forward

#

And you get stuff like a main-line and then the vast ocean of stuff that comes with it

modern lichen
#

Western series just are elaborate mythologies

burnt lake
#

Its hard to describe

modern lichen
#

Well, comics

#

Offshoots and all depend per TV shows and movies

burnt lake
#

Like ok there's batman the Arkham knight

#

Wait no, Dark Knight

modern lichen
#

The Dark Knight? The movie?

burnt lake
#

The one with Bane, idek

#

Yeah

modern lichen
#

Bane?

burnt lake
#

People say the comic is great, right

#

And people also say the movie is great

modern lichen
#

Are you talking about the Dark Knight trilogy

burnt lake
#

I might be

modern lichen
#

They're inspired by the comics

#

But not comic based

burnt lake
#

I'm still very fresh to WS

#

Oh I got a better example

#

MCU

modern lichen
#

The Dark Knight is basically just a crime film that has characters belonging to the Batman mythos

burnt lake
#

Does that matter, like at all

modern lichen
#

The MCU?

#

They're straightforward too

#

Just watch in release order

#

They're intended to be consumed in that way

burnt lake
#

Yes but I mean in accordance to comics theyre based on

modern lichen
#

They have no relation to the comics

burnt lake
#

Hmmm

modern lichen
#

The adaptation of those characters are entirely to the films, they have no bearing on the comics

#

The MCU is a separate universe filled with characters from the films

#

None of the films are direct 1:1 adaptations of the comics

burnt lake
#

I see, ok I think I'm getting a gist of it

#

The mythology description helps

#

Only issue I really have is when I'm reading a run, and there's this whole branch that skews off into other runs and there's little context if you don't read that run

modern lichen
#

DC and Marvel have mythological proportions of stories and characters due to them being entire multiverses

#

Well, they branch into their own stories

#

Mostly just exclusive to the comics tho

burnt lake
#

As well as origins, I guess though I guess it's easy to look that up

modern lichen
#

Even then, there are incredible amount of comic book series that are as straightforward as manga series

burnt lake
#

When I looked at the original Fantastic Four comics, there was over 100 missing

#

And I looked into it and they were all parts of different runs

modern lichen
#

Yeah they're offshoots

burnt lake
#

So it's like there's no real point in reading those if you're just going for that specific run

#

Okay I think I get it

#

Although, there's probably no real point in reading Action Comics from the 30s if you're getting into superman

modern lichen
#

Once you understand it, it's very easy

burnt lake
#

Right?

modern lichen
#

Exactly

burnt lake
#

I see

modern lichen
#

That's why there are runs

#

Also, Superman is an iconic character that is only below Jesus in terms of just being ubiquitous

burnt lake
#

I guess Batman 2011 left a weird taste in my mouth because I knew literally nothing of batman beforehand

#

I see

modern lichen
#

Batman's iconography is as iconic as Superman's

burnt lake
#

I see

modern lichen
#

I don't know how you escaped that lmao I thought everyone would be exposed to that but I guess not

burnt lake
#

Literally only thing I knew was batman year one

modern lichen
#

Still, the new 52 Batman run is great enough

burnt lake
#

And then batman 2011 was like

modern lichen
#

You see, Zero Year in the run is an origin story star lmaoo

burnt lake
#

"ok so Batman has 3 kids-"

modern lichen
#

I'm surprised you don't know who the Robins are

#

Oh well

burnt lake
#

I had some spoiled context over one of the robins

#

Like years ago

#

||something about a robin dying|| batman

modern lichen
#

Yeah

burnt lake
#

I told this to my partner and she just goes "Oh I thought that was common knowledge"

modern lichen
#

Same thing I'm telling you

burnt lake
#

Tf its like Ace all over again

modern lichen
#

Except Batman shit is far more popular and well know

burnt lake
#

Yeah true

modern lichen
#

But I digress

#

Check the list I sent then

#

Of the Batman stories

burnt lake
#

Just know that I'm literally fetus stage of experiencing everything still

modern lichen
#

And then go into 2011

#

Making me feel like a boomer now lmao

burnt lake
#

Im in my early 20s I just had a weird life

modern lichen
#

I am as well, I'm one year older iirc

burnt lake
#

21

modern lichen
#

I'm 22

burnt lake
#

Yeah

modern lichen
#

So yeah, hopefully shit changes in our 20s

burnt lake
#

I hope so

modern lichen
#

Well, not for me as much I guess I will admit I have led and am leading a privileged life

burnt lake
#

I talk to people about stuff and they're like "you haven't seen __ ??? What a sad sack my guy oh man"

#

Like fuck can't expect everyone to know everything

#

Its like the same argument as saying "JoJo's is 30+ years old so why would it be spoils"

modern lichen
#

Well, assholes will be assholes

burnt lake
#

Yeah I digress

modern lichen
#

I have led a comfortable life with a supportive family

#

I have went through stuff as well living alone in a whole another continent

#

Working and studying at the same time

burnt lake
#

I definitely wouldn't be able to handle that

modern lichen
#

Shit made me grow up fast

burnt lake
#

My nerves would fuck me up

modern lichen
#

Moved at 18 too

#

From India to UK where I had to manage everything on my own

burnt lake
#

Oh man

modern lichen
#

Great experience I must say except for when Covid started

#

That's where life fucked me over

burnt lake
#

Damn

#

:(

#

No one deserves that

modern lichen
#

Yeah, got back home, living the life now

burnt lake
#

Good good

#

Glad you're enjoying it

modern lichen
#

Having a supportive family helps I think

#

Hm

#

Ah sorry I didn't mean to get into this here

#

Anyways back to books and movies and comics and TV shows

burnt lake
#

I think the last novel I've read was uhhhhh

#

Brave New World

#

And it was back in HS

burnt lake
#

Reading as a class always bothered me tbh

#

As well as this system we had in Elementary and Middle School

#

"A.R." or Accelerated Reading

modern lichen
#

Ah

burnt lake
#

Basically forced you to read books you don't want to

#

It turns people off books for a loooooong time

#

I'm just glad comics and manga and such is helping me soothe back into it

#

Got the Kyoshi Avatar books on the backburn

#

I'm still new to western stuff really

#

I just like Moon Knight

stiff knoll
#

oh i see

#

burnt lake
#

Got Uncanny X-Men on the go rn

#

Reading an issue whenever I can

#

Silver Age comics are strangely calming

stiff knoll
#

i read ultimate spider-man and half of Hickman's Avengers run

#

i hadn't got around to reading any X-Men stuff yet

burnt lake
#

Harsh had me read batman 2011

#

With no context of batman prior really

modern lichen
#

you didnt mention that!

burnt lake
#

I did!

modern lichen
#

i assumed you knew

stiff knoll
#

i did read some Batman too

burnt lake
#

I told you way back when I said I only read Killing Joke and Year One

stiff knoll
#

my first Batman comic was The Killing Joke. i read it a few years ago actually 🙂

modern lichen
#

ok star

stiff knoll
#

and i read Year One a few months ago

modern lichen
#

my fault then

burnt lake
#

I'm not blaming you

#

It was still a good read

#

I enjoyed it

modern lichen
#

go through the list i sent over and then get into the run again

#

it will hit harder for sure

burnt lake
#

Noted

#

Sorry if it sounded like I was blaming you

modern lichen
#

also, if theres any missing pieces, i'll fill you in

#

nah i said that in a joking manner

#

lmao

burnt lake
#

Ah lmao

modern lichen
#

dont worry bout that

burnt lake
#

I seeee

stiff knoll
#

harsh are you a batman vet?

burnt lake
#

But yeah it was probably a fault on my end for not clarifying it enough

modern lichen
#

well what do you think luca

stiff knoll
#

i don't know. 🙂

modern lichen
#

ask star

stiff knoll
#

i think you are

#

anyways i was gonna ask you

burnt lake
#

Harsh isnt a Batman vet

#

I don't see a phd

#

For being a vet

stiff knoll
#

should i go with Dini's run, Morrison's run or Snyder's run for Batman?

modern lichen
#

snyder

#

but if you know the context

stiff knoll
#

i see

modern lichen
#

do you know the lore

stiff knoll
#

a little. i didn't read many stuff but i know a bit about the bat family

burnt lake
#

I think you said to add Hush

#

If that's not on there already

modern lichen
#

add hush

#

yes

#

court of owls is a part of the snyder run

#

so leave that out and read it with the rest of the run

stiff knoll
#

wait lemme tell you the stuff i have read
Year 1
Killing Joke
The Long Halloween and Dark Victory
Batgirl/Robin Year One
Under the Red Hood

burnt lake
#

Who's your favorite writer, harsh?

modern lichen
#

i dont have one

burnt lake
#

Damn

modern lichen
#

i've read a lot of books

#

#

stiff knoll
#

i didn't read death in the family cause someone spoiled me on it

modern lichen
#

so i dont have a definite favourite

burnt lake
#

Lemme specify to comics then
