What Is... Kingdom Come

Ойын-сауық

Set in the not so distant future, the DC Universe is spinning inexorably out of control. The new generation of heroes has lost their moral compass, becoming just as reckless and violent as the villains they fight. The previous regime of heroes-the Justice League-returns under the direst of circumstances.

I got this novel back in comic-con 2014 and i'm so happy that altought the trials and tribulations he went trough, he managed to not get corrupted by his flaws and hate.

    Injustice did things different, but you interpret things wrong. For example, Batman wasn't a bad friend in a difficult time against the person who wanted him to be the godfather of his child and Lois was definitely not 'the only reason why Superman was good'. Superman never got to grieve, and instead was encouraged to take the easy path while he was most vulnerable, when he could have otherwise become the Man of Tomorrow again after emerging from an unspeakable tragedy when the world really needed him, even after killing the Joker in an absolutely understandable sense of grief; simultaneously proving the Joker wrong and Batman right about Superman being incorruptable.

    My favorite part of Kingdom Come is it manages to be both bleak *and* hopeful.

It feels more like hubris than "actually humanity sucks". My second favorite part is Power Girl is absolutely jacked.

    I do believe that Kingdom Come was and is to this day the best comic book EVER. It took all those classic characters to a whole new level and the writing here is simply fantastic with mature moral dillemas taking place all the time. By the time Kingdom Come was released, DC Comics had already released Frank Miller's Ronin and Batman the Dark Knight and also the epic Crisis on Infinite Earths. Kingdom Come, artistically and narrative-wise shot for the stars and ended up being epic and a classic.

    THE BEST graphic novel from DC Comics. It started as an Elseworld story, and in New52 reboot, Kingdom Come universe is rebooted to Earth-22 universe. At the beginning of the novel, it says, "This novel is dedicated to Christopher Reeve, who made us believe that we can all fly." For those of us who have read the novel, this sentence is NEVER forgotten.

    Still one of my all time favorite Elseworld stories. Quite possibly the gold standard every other one is held to for me. Both inspiring and equally damning considering when it came out. It was an active criticism of the edgy anti hero craze of the 90s, specifically Liefelds reign of terror. It manages to have Superman go bad and lose his way without compromising who he is deep down. It makes a point of saying “Yeah things are bad now, but the past wasn’t perfect either and you can’t stay rooted in nostalgia. Both sides need to change if we want to find any way forward.” That’s a message we sorely need in an age where one side wants to uproot everything and start clean and one side wants everything to stay the same.

(plus it would be funny if they got Henry Cavill to play Superman in flashbacks if they got Costner) And DC can cram as many Cameos they would want from the older actors Maybe except Jack Nicholson as the Joker again which is a shame.

    Spicy Take: The best "evil" versions of Superman are Soviet Dictator Superman, Nazi Superman, and when Superman pretends to be evil at the end of Superman vs The Elite. Injustice Superman is a fuckin cartoon villain. Hell, Soviet Dictator Superman and even Nazi Superman have better moral compasses and humanity despite being raised by mass murderers and monsters rather than the Injustice one who was raised by the fuckin KENTS! Soviet Superman finds out about the gulags and purges then vaporizes Stalin with his heat vision. He then is horrified, guilt ridden, and starts crying because it was the first time he took a life. Soviet Superman then shuts down the gulags and becomes the next dictator of the Soviet Union. Nazi Superman after helping the Nazis and Fascists invade and conquer the United States comes back to Europe years later to discover the Nazis death camps which disgusts and horrifies him because he realized the role he played in all of this. Nazi Superman then tears down the Nazis concentration camps. Even versions of Superman that were raised by Stalin and the Nazis grew up to be closer to the Superman we all know and love rather than the Injustice one that murders his own friends just for arguing with him! Fuck the shitty Injustice games and comics!

There is no mention of gulags, superman just seems lana in a food bank line and decides to do better then stalin. Third, injustice superman is very similar to kingdom come superman where they both are slow burners. No decision they made are individually tyrannical, but their sum is. Superman killing joker after what he has done is not wrong, nor is he taking out dictators. But some of his actions make him become a monster.

Shocking than a Nazi version that was raised by Hitler is much more human than the one raised by the FUCKING KENTS! kzread.info/dash/bejne/Y3-M2qZ9k7HWkdY.html dc.fandom.com/wiki/Kal-L_(Earth-10)#:~:text=world%20you%20know.-,Overman,Allies%20lost%20World%20War%20II. Second, yes while in the comic version he doesn't kill Stalin or doesn't really kill anyone really. I do prefer the way the animated adaptation handled it showing even though Superman is a Soviet, deep down he's still Superman when showing remorse and horror at killing Stalin because it's the first time he took a human life. Third, Injustice is dogshit and is edgy for the sake of being edgy with so much Batman jerking fanfare. Even the writers for injustice don't like the way they wrote Superman, Wonder Woman, and all the other heroes and said they just needed an excuse to make a DC fighting game. Injustice really expects me to believe Superman could become this monster when I've literally listed other versions that were raised in worst settings and environments, yet even Soviet and Nazi Superman are still Superman deep in their hearts and souls! Also keep in mind in Kingdom Come, Joker murders Lois Lane and then Joker is executed publicly by Magog and Superman has him arrested and put on trial!

Also, there seems to be a difference in goals when i comes to injustice vs red son Red son is about how superman is gonna be superman regardless of the context. As in, his inate goodness is able to overcome any contextual flaws, and is also a interesting pro soviet comic. Whereas injsutice comics have a different goal, and is asking "if superhuman vigilantes exist, then how much of then is enought?" Superman kills the joker after he nukes metropolis, kills louis and their unborn baby. How wrong is that considering it was the joker? Then he decides to arrest a dictator, how wrong is that? It keeps escalating, to the point that by the end of some issues, you find yourself with a fascist superman that you disagree, but can understand and agree every step it took to get him there.
