Just from aestethic viewpoint this is gold, I don't even care about the stupid way it ends and the dumb politics. It's full of god tier Soviet imagery, the US superman is a horrible abomination, and that final panel should be framed and hung on the wall of every soiboi.
No.1249
>The overall story is garbage about how Superman would be a 'good boi' no matter if he was raised by "le evul stalin" or not.
Which is funny because the whole point of Superman is that nurture > nature and muh wholesome murrikan way can make a gud boi out of even a fucking alien.

>>1269I'm not saying it's true, but it's a line you hear from MLs sometimes that anarchists will work with capitalists and imperialists to fight socialists.
>>1268Batman might be the dumbest part of the comic since the original character is based so much on a specific person's psychology, and in this universe there just happens to be the same character in a different setting, complete with batcave trophies that make no sense.

No.1295
Since there's an adaptation coming, does anybody have thoughts on that? Are they likely to change anything in particular? IMO the strongest point of the comic is the art, and the animation is going to lose a lot of the character. Kind of like the adaptation of The Killing Joke.>>1291As soon as the epilogue started I knew where it was going and my eyes rolled out my damn head.>>1292Wondy was done extremely dirty but I maintain Batman was the most nonsensical and poorly conceived. Given the historical significance of anarchy and Batman's significance in the comics, it's pretty weak how little he's in the story.>>1294Hey I'm not gonna say you're wrong because you're not. That's a very real weakness of anarchy. Don't want to start some sectarian shit, but anarchists' flaws and MLs' flaws could be significantly offset if there was more co-operation and accounting for the differences in strategy.

>Superman to a secret gulag where he finds a dying Svetlana, who was imprisoned there because she knew his real identity. Enraged, Superman confronts Stalin about the gulag and destroys him with his heat vision.>Batman’s parents were gulagedThis never happened in the book. The only mention of gulag in the comic was that red supes lobotomize people (which is hilarious considering how it was the Soviet Union that pioneered in banning the barbaric practice).
After her depowering incel ww becomes lib and hating all violence but somehow still fought supes when he defended the USSR against the mass produced green lanterns.
No.3552
>>3540I think they find (or thought) that the brainwashed maid army was little enough to show the Eeevil of gommunism.
So Svetlana, was the first love of Sups (wordplay with Lana amirite?)… Really a priority of the state to kill a good soviet citizen. Fucking DC movie studio.
No.3568
>>3552Which I really don’t get since why would Supes identity be hidden? Wouldn’t touting him as a farmer in a collective farm and the pinnacle of Soviet proletarian power like they did with Gagarin makes more sense?
They’re just doing it for arbitrary red scare bullshit to spook the Amerilard watching. Probably because Amerilards would support lobotomy just as they did in the States.

>>1248>Anarcho-kulak Batman.I don’t think Batman in that comic has ever showed himself being anarchist or espoused any anarchist ideals. Most of his motivations is revenge alone and he acts like any other dime a dozen gusano “colour revolutionary” that liberals like the author love so much. He even get funded by imperialist Luthor, something true anarchists would never do. This incarnation is just as much of an insult towards anarchism as V from the Wachowsky movie.

What the hell is this?
Maybe rather than complaining about poor people he should be complaining about rich people not giving adequate funding to all schools . Things like "high school ranking" are stupid. If all schools were properly funded then schools could all give IB and AP classes as options. People who study hard can still get all college credit and IB classes while people who don't study can coast on regular classes. School funding should become a state and federal thing rather than the burden being on local property values.
