Hokay, comics are my thing. If there is anything I can talk about for
like, ten hours, and vomit a bowl full of knowledge with, it's comic
books.
So first of all, The Mandarin in Iron Man 3 was kind of a
let down, but honestly, what he was up UNTIL then was even more of a
letdown for me. Frankly when they did, what they did I was like "Thank
God." Besides. Extremis was all I really needed. We don't need two
villains in one movie.
As for the DC hate going on, I'm hurt. DC
is my preferred of the Big 2. I used to be a Marvl guy, but at some
point I just got tired of it all. Let's see, who said they weren't sure
where to start... Ah! Phoenix! NAme a superhero, and I'll tell you some great places to start. In Iron Man's case, honestly? I'd start with Extremis. It was fairly recent and I'm fairly sure it came with a really quick origin to Iron Man. Something like "Hi, I'm Tony Stark. A bomb went off and shrapnel was in my heart and stuff. Oh and I own a big suit. And I like to save America." Bam. Then Extremis.
There's a reason why they didn't keep Superman dead. Superman is the face of DC. So many people collect Superman(And Batman) comics. Getting rid of Superman was a HUGE thing because he was the face of the company and he was DEAD. But that kinda thing can't last forever, so back to life he was. People like to think Superman is OP, but honestly, the The Flash's power set is SO overpowered, it's impossible to write a story with him without it being completely full of plot holes due to his stupid level of over-poweredness.(word?) Green Lantern is pretty wicked, too. He can snipe planets and whatnot.
My favorite DC character is Aquaman, believe it or not. It's had great writing so far in the New 52 and not a single issue for me has been dull.
