manufactured controversy and award buzz sold Joker, same with Aquaman's big china push. what retards like
>>110811681 don't understand is that Justice League should've been the record breaker, not Joker or fucking Aquaman.
DC is really good at overhyping their trash, it goes all the way back to Death of Superman masquerading an otherwise stupid continuity shake-up as this big pop culture event. sadly it turned out big profit so they're going to reshape their products to emulate the latest moneymaker and the evidence is there: TDKR, Watchmen, Killing Joke, etc where they downplay the fantastical comic book aspect of their characters and stories.
so yeah, get ready for the Power Girl movie where she's Anita Sarkeesian and is also a chestlet with no powers.
