Adam Talking Superman

Just walked from Jerry Seigel's childhood home to Joe Shuster's. Really cool experience! I got emotional

@FitMarshmellow I think they made the right choice. Less like Mxy obviously, simpler, and I like the dichotomy of high concept time powers being used by an animal.

@TalkingSuperman I did like his other design with the clothes a lot but I don't mind this either

I really want to praise Txyz’s design. Feels classic but fresh for comics. I feel like the majority of characters last two decades have been afraid to do a dash of silliness which I believe adds so much memorability.

Big problem I have with many legacy characters is that it may not be an exaggeration to say I’ve read this theme of living up to a name 100 times. It’s just so disproportionate with my life.

Another thing I like! His height. He’s not small like a 5D imp, not human size, but also not big enough that he’s in the like Hulk/ Mongul category. Just being like 8ft I find puts him in a fittingly uncanny valley range.

@PartyLegal In case you were curious

@TalkingSuperman How did I miss that 💀💀

@PartyLegal Not a mistake. Mxy talks about it. They’re just really emphasizing his powers are time specific. Not as omnipotent reality bending as 5D.

@TalkingSuperman Also, he says he’s from the 4th dimension and not the 5th. Which is curious. Was it a mistake?

Penciling Brainiac today. goofy dude!

My thing with Jon Kent/legacy characters as a whole, is if you want them to be ‘successful’ they need to be *as good* if not *better* than the original, in EITHER a Watsonian OR a Doylist sense. Jon Kent kind of isn’t either.

@D4hz4hn Please do not be cheeky

@TalkingSuperman At least 6 or 7 times

1. Looks great. 2. I gotta count how many times stories us Toyman mech for there first couple pages villain.

@LetsTalkTommie I think my guy’s got more in him than this

@TalkingSuperman He’s got a niche and damn does he fill it

Action #971

@lefebvre_s87394 No. I know he’s done it but I don’t really think of him making replicas of other characters as like a big aspect

@TalkingSuperman Has Toyman ever made his own take on Bizarro?

@bthomasa I agree and then there’s an interesting contrast to the badge/uniform aspect when you look at the casual and flowy nature of it

@TalkingSuperman I always thought it was interesting that when Supergirl had the smaller "s" on her shirt, it looked like a badge, as if she were wearing some sort of uniform.

Something about the 1972 suit. When it was around 40 years old it was a joke of how dated it looked within my circle. Now that’s almost 55 years old i find it timeless/ unironically the best look. I know it wasn’t the og intent but I can totally see it being Kryptonian fashion.
