i believe that you guys are kinda underestimating Batman to be honest due to a multitude of things that happened in the comics; long story short he can easily beat Robin in a spar by using only specific skills suited to Robin's level who was able to beat someone who can see 5 seconds into the future at all times, and also he is somehow more skilled than higher dimensional / future timeline beings, such as Karate Kid for example, or an Ares who can see all time basically and knows every single battle tactic in all of existence; yeah, somehow Batman is more skilled than that. and he even adapted and made on the fly a fighting style to counter the Batman who Laughs, someone who had all of his abilities but was much more deadly with them; the dude is a meta-human

It would be horrifying if he was able to traverse time by using a calendar.

It's just so boring to do it that way though. The premise seems cool at first but when yo uactually do it... it's just dull. no accomplishment, no triumph, no nothing.

The sweet irony when Calendar Man is given the ability to see the other panels and he says, "It's real!" when he's so close to the truth that none of it is

It would be so cool for this calendar man be a villain in a comic-style movie/animation like "into the spiderverse". Like imagine a plain trailer about some boring and ordinary plot with those comic frames as transitions or smth like that. Then, in the movie itself we keep watching this stylisation when suddenly Calendar man gets introduced and all hell breaks loose.

The Dimensions like the Fourth which is the Timestream and the Fifth, they're not "Dimensions" per say but Realms that expand outside of Reality, the God Sphere even has its own Timestream called Hypertime which can end up creating Hypertime-Cubes, the Infinite Spacial Dimensions of the Multiverse are overseen by the Orrey of Worlds and The Bleed encompasses all of those Dimensions.

Grant Morrison was a smarter writer and definitely paved the way for stories like this but he would be proud of a story like this because it's genuinely creative and funny. Have you read his run on Animal Man?? His powers would put Mxy to shame.

I love everything about this comic. Mxy's my favorite Superman villain, so it's already a winner. Mxy + and villain you'd never think to match up with him, but who absolutely works, for another. Then the irony of Calendar Man getting omniscience and omnipotence, but being held up by his small time motives and way of thinking. And of course, a good old fashioned Batman / Superman teamup. And most of all, that it's just a small, self-contained, fun story. Comics sometimes get away from the fun of having just a regular, crazy adventure without too many bells and whistles, without necessarily having to set up huge lurid events, character deaths, huge upheavals, etc.

Nice to see the little bald guy gave him his arm back. Wasn't all bad.

I love their powers! Vynd nearly beat the ‘Story of Superman’ (arguably strongest force of good in DC) by some craaaaazy obscure methods. Like drawing a line down the middle of Superman’s S. It went from S to $. From the hero always winning and hope always existing to being DC’s cash cow they slap on everything for profit. Even made an edgy Superman/Doomsday hybrid that parodied Thought Robot/Cosmic Armor, the more the audience (us the readers) thought it was ‘cooler’ than Superman the stronger it got. Or stabbing an infinite sided spear into four points in time simultaneously, and the spear being perceived in our dimension as a horde of heavenly angels. Imps are nuts.

That hat didnt just allow Calendar man to look at the panels, it gave him Superman-level strength.

I always thought the villains in the Batman games were some of their best versions, calendar man included. The heroes however, felt a little flat.

Idk why but there's something hilarious about a villain who's gimmick is that he only commits crimes on holidays.

Idn if it has always been a thing since I don't know much calendar man, but the section of Batman Rebirth you mentioned says that calendar man gives birth to himself Every Year, which I thought was a cool addition revolving around the calendar. A villain that lives a lifetime within a year, and every spring he's reborn as 20 years old again. Explains why he sometimes comes off as super wise and sometimes comes off as a lunatic: he's lived more life than anybody else.

I remember when Calendar Man was a joke villain. I'm so glad that changed.

Calendar man is good enough to make an animated Batman film with. Don’t have him do wacky crimes like paint streetlights, just have him be meticulous and creepy when he plans his crimes. Have Batman struggling to pinpoint his next crimes over the span of a year, so it can have every holiday and what heinous act he will do on those days.

Kinda sad and somewhat terrifying when you realize that little gremlin knows that we've been seeing the almost exact same stories over and over again, yet without us wanting more and kept coming back they ceased to exist

*AN Omnipotent Being

It's funny when I was younger I had this idea for a super power. I really love the utilization of a seemingly goofy character and how it can be re-defined in an equally Captiva way

Correction: Calender Man is not truly omnipotent, but he is nigh-omnipotent.

As someone who has always liked superheros, but doesn’t really like either DC or Marvel movies and has no idea where to start with the comics, it’s nice to see a KZreadr talk about the more obscure side of the genre and seeing the medium pushed to its limit like this!

I love this. Is not just 4 wall breaking jokes but pushing beyond that.

"I want to be President of Thursdays" "Okay crazy "

I swear they especially save that special combination of outlandish concepts and obscure characters just for Batman / Superman.
