Doom Patrol thread

Anybody been reading the Gerard Way book from Young Animal? I actually kind of like it. Its' defiantly got the Morrison flavor but it's doing its own thing as well.

I think it's a real credit to the mood Way and Derringtion have created that when Casey fucked her cat I wasn't disgusted or anything, it was just another new turn in the weird ride.

I'm also hard as fuck for Derrington's art. My god that man does things to me.

I honestly love how most of Doom Patrol, not just this run, just kinda runs on dream logic.

You just kinda go with the weird stuff. It just works. A sentient street? Yeah, okay. A being claiming to be both Jack the Ripper and God? Seems reasonable.

I think it's a real testament to the talent behind them that they can maintain that kind of illogical internal logic. It'd still be very easy to jump a shark or break the illusion in a Doom Patrol run, I'd imagine it's a regular temptation for an artist or writer, but they keep a consistent verisimilitude, so much so that even yiffing can't break it, so you gotta commend them on that.

I've been reading it. I like it. I know just barely enough about Doom Patrol to pick up on some of the plot points it's continuing from previous runs.

Tell me about the Doom Patrol runs before and after Morrison. It seems Morrison is just the end all be all when it comes to Doom Patrol, the golden standard.
What did other runs do that were memorable?

As I understand it, the Silver Age run still holds up as a staple of pulpy weirdness, and the post-Morrison (I want to say Johns?) run is awful.

I heard Keith Giffen's Doom Patrol run was good.

Though all I really know about it is Mr. Nobody comes back as Mr. Somebody and Ambush Bug ends the run just before the climactic battle by informing Mr. Somebody that they've been canceled because of Flashpoint.

Knowing that helped me figure out just what the hell happened on that island which keeps getting brought up in Way's run.

The reboot of DC's properties, and then the reboot of the reboot somehow fucked up enough stuff so that the Doom Patrol was unaffected by the new timeline and carried on as usual once they ended up existing again.

I dont think many people liked Giffen's run for whatever reason, I personally did, it was fun perhaps more tame than previous runs but it was still a nice read. Nothing too spectacular but not mediocre either, just simple fun.

Looking at the history of Doom Patrol, it makes me wonder what it'd be like if it were adapted into a cartoon starting at the beginning and then going through all the runs.

What would get streamlined? What kinks would be ironed out? What detested stories would be cut or turned around into something fun?

Johns only wrote the DP for a bit during the New 52 period, but he brought back Beast Boy's connection to them when Superboy Prime punched reality during Infinite Crisis

Just the standard intro editorial you get for these things from Tom Peyer and Morrison. Ends with four pages of character design with notes from Grant, three pages of story boards, the covers scattered throughout, and then a saterical liefeld send up called 'doom force' to round up the collection. Not that much in the way of special features unfortunately.

It's about how at the time (in 1996) superhero comics had reached a point where the grim and gritty cynicism of the dark age (issue #3) had become no longer useful in being a credible mythology that spoke to the human psyche.

Morrison is calling for a new approach to the way we do superhero comics. He would proceed to do this in New X-Men/Marvel Boy and his Batman run.

I have read every run of the DP and I have no interest in reading Daniel Way's run. I can't stomach a Morrison clone, specially a post JLA Morrison Clone.

Pollack has the same aesthetic but different sensibilities
Byrne was just Byrne
Giffen tried to conciliate all previews runs.

While Morrisons run is amazing I am sad he didn't do anything with the old Doom Patrol rogues gallery. The Mallah and the Brain issue is 10/10
