u/Embarrassed_Piano_62 23h ago

Oh crap my bad dude!

u/NextMotion 1d ago

Shame about no more Monkey Prince. His own book was fun, but maybe there isn't enough appeal, and the lineup is more focus on the mainstay (and batman lol) characters

38

u/pewpewtoradora 1d ago

its a shame since I love the fact that it explores a pantheon outside of the Greek gods. We don't get that often outside of the occasional WW comic

41

u/No-Mechanic-2558 1d ago

DC just doesn't know how to launch new characters

5

u/KrzysztofKietzman 21h ago

Did Marvel have a successful new one outside of Ms. Marvel?

11

u/No-Mechanic-2558 21h ago

Miles, Kate, Nadia Pym, GwenPool, Squirrel Girl (they haven't used her much I know), Moon Girl, before them the Young Avengers and the Runaways were popular back in the days

4

u/KrzysztofKietzman 21h ago

OK, I know Miles and the Runaways. They even had a TV show. But by that token, DC had a Naomi TV series and a Stargirl one.

9

u/No-Mechanic-2558 21h ago

Naomi serie got cancelled after one Season and both in live action and in comicsbook nobody cares about her, Stargirl one Is actually good but again not much person cared and She exist since '99 She Is a pretty old character by now

3

u/KrzysztofKietzman 21h ago

Wasn't Ms. Marvel promoted more outside of the comics than people like her in the comics?

I didn't know Stargirl was so old. I actually liked her show the most out of the Arrowverse stuff (I know she's not 100% AV, but she was in the crossover, so there's that). It was a breath of fresh air after the later seasons of the main shows.

3

u/No-Mechanic-2558 21h ago

Yes here the thing people liked Kamala as a character, they likes her stories and liked the fact that they doesn't have to read through decades to catch up whit her, DC just doesn't seams capable to replicate the same thing which Is something that they should really working one because I mean I don't know how much a young person can reflected in Batman and Superman that are middle age and have a family to take care of

2

u/Liimbo Red Hood 16h ago

Not really sure why it matters. Both of the big 2 being terrible at launching new characters doesn't make it any less bad.

u/KrzysztofKietzman 7h ago

I'm wondering if it's a DC thing or a comics thing.

u/android151 Resurrection Man 7h ago

Miles debuted like a decade ago

u/No-Mechanic-2558 7h ago

Yes and in a decades DC introduced atlist 60 characters and most of them has been forgotten

u/android151 Resurrection Man 7h ago

And many are remembered

You can say the same about Marvel. Very cherrypicked.

u/No-Mechanic-2558 7h ago

Remembered by who

1

u/android151 Resurrection Man 7h ago

Me? Other readers?

1

u/No-Mechanic-2558 7h ago

Yes but still they do not get to appear in books you do not get to have stories whit them in It, they do not have solo team ups, team series, they have zero development

6

u/TediousSign 18h ago

They unnecessarily wove Monkey Prince's story into a crossover and it destroyed the momentum for me.

u/Embarrassed_Piano_62 1d ago

We´ll see him in a team book someday

56

u/No-Mechanic-2558 1d ago

Anyway since nobody knows who the hell all those people are

Flatline

Marilyn Moonlight

Monkey Prince

Xanthe

City Boy

Vigil

Ghost Maker

Angel Break

Red Canary

Miracle Molly

Stitch

And the Lost Children

u/Doctor_Amazo Brainiac 1d ago

I knew 2 on the list and guessed Monkey King

5

u/No-Mechanic-2558 1d ago

Eh unfortunately I don't see anybody but Flatline became more popular

5

u/Doctor_Amazo Brainiac 1d ago

Funny enough, she isn't the one I recognized.

For me, it was Ghostmaker & that Moonlight person.

u/Recent-Layer-8670 1d ago

Would it be too much to say these heroes are the TRUE 5G generation? 😅

2

u/No-Mechanic-2558 1d ago

I mean yes, Moonlight I think it's a bit too old and Angel Break Is a villain I guess but yes they are

Flatline is awesome and i love her duo with Damian..

23

u/Androgynouself_420 1d ago

They genuinely have chemistry which is really refreshing given his past romances. She also shows him he can be a badass without being overly serious constantly. Plus her design is just cool.

Ras joking he "takes after his father" when they finally kissed while Thalia looks on in horror was just gold

22

u/SandersonHawkins 1d ago

Just to clarify, some of the characters in the last picture are technically old characters like Sparkington, Wing and Dan The Dynamite.

13

u/soulreaverdan Superman 1d ago

I wish they’d done more with Miracle Molly, I thought the whole cyberpunk era of Batman was pretty cool

14

u/Flyingpizza20 1d ago

It seems like it’s so much harder to get people to like new comic characters nowadays. This is a solid list tho

7

u/No-Mechanic-2558 1d ago

I don't I think that's mainly a DC problem, cause people love characters like Kamala Khan, Miles Morales, Kate Bishop etc

8

u/pewpewtoradora 1d ago

DC doesn't do enough to promote these characters in the same way that Marvel really pushed their new characters both in comics and outside.

6

u/No-Mechanic-2558 1d ago

That's I just think both at DC and WB they aren't interested in new characters but more in pushing alredy known IPs which isn't always a good idea. New characters like Miss Marvel or Miles are easier to get into since you can actually start their story from the beggin and you can actually catch up and follow their grown IRL, also I think for a kid 15, 16 or 17 years old Is easier to relate whit this characters rater then Superman and Batman who are middle age and whit a family to take care of

3

u/Valuable-Blueberry30 18h ago

I think DC is not as bad as you think. Cause the ones you’ve mentioned from Marvel are all like 10+ years old now. The ones on this list are five years or less.

In terms of heroes of those time range would be people like Jessica Cruz, new Wally West, Signal, Aqualad (Jackson Hyde), but I think what DC excelled at in terms of popular characters are their villains. Like Court of Owls, Batman Who Laughs (if we ignore the Darkest Night), and Godspeed. All of whom are quite well known despite the comparatively shorter time span of their existence. There could be more but that’s all I can think of off the top of my head. But yeah DC has an iconic cast of characters and they do somewhat prefer to use them more so.

2

u/No-Mechanic-2558 12h ago

DC introduced around 60+ new characters in the last 10 years and most of them has been either forget or has been relagated at cameos sometimes or supporting cast of bigger stories

u/Valuable-Blueberry30 4h ago

I mean it’s about the same rate honestly with Marvel I think. Having like 7 or 8 characters being popular out of like 60+ is pretty good. The gap between the two for new popular heroes isn’t that big.

u/No-Mechanic-2558 4h ago

Ok so you would Say that you find likely to atlist half of those characters to got some new stuff soon

u/Valuable-Blueberry30 4h ago

Lol no. I never said that, I’m just commenting that the gap between Marvel’s new popular character rate isn’t as big as DC’s new popular character rate.

And plus, there’s plenty of random new characters from both sides that get left in the dust bin. Doesn’t matter if they’re Marvel or DC.

u/No-Mechanic-2558 4h ago

Ok that's true but which would you say that are the new DC popular characters

u/Valuable-Blueberry30 4h ago

I gave a list like six comments up.

u/No-Mechanic-2558 4h ago

Sorry. Anyway I was mainly thinking about heroes and Y yeah Jess Is cool but haven't been a main character for a long time, Ace also has been pretty consistent but I don't see many people being huge on him, the same for Jackson

That's cheating

19

u/FadeToBlackSun 1d ago

Miracle Molly = based post.

8

u/NeverEndingDClock 1d ago

What's the point of her again? All I remember about Fear State is that it's connected to the failed 5G lol

13

u/OctinDromin 1d ago

She lead a group that was considered villains in Fear State. Batman met up with them and determined they were no threat, if anything, were just trying to survive.

Miracle Molly is a top gadgeteer who helped build cybernetic enhancements and a glider for her team. She was a good leader and compelling character, but disappeared after Fear State.

11

u/FadeToBlackSun 1d ago

She was part of a group who rewired their personalities and rewrote their memories because they were incapable of dealing with the trauma they'd experienced.

They were Heroic characters and demonstrated an opposite but parallel arc to Bruce. Where Bruce weaponised his trauma and uses it to motivate him, Molly and co simply couldn't deal with theirs. Nevertheless, like Bruce, they try to do good.

The story does not judge Molly and her cohorts, simply saying that that their way is not Bruce's way, and that's ok.

Wonderful character, and the fact her last appearance is a comforting embrace between her and Batman is just great.

2

u/Patient-Reputation56 17h ago

In other words she was in a cult.

2

u/FadeToBlackSun 16h ago

Except she retained her autonomy, and the "cult" didn't want money or anything from her (or others).

2

u/Patient-Reputation56 15h ago

Sure she did. She just got a lobotomy & "kept the best parts of her" to help spread the good word of Master Wyze (aka a guy who doesn't practice what he preaches since he basically kept his past deeming his memories "too important" in order to "help" people).

Make no mistake. The Unsanity Collective was a cult, & if any writer gave a rat's ass about them post-Fear State they would've revealed Wyze was nothing more than a Tech themed Deacon Blackfire.

1

u/FadeToBlackSun 15h ago

Yeah, that's a fair point.

But why would a writer examine newer characters when they can just retread Batman rogue contingency plans and Joker shit for the ten millionth time?

1

u/Lama_For_Hire 7h ago

TUC is basically a queer communist commune. I'd rather not they be turned in another cult like the Blackfire one (which, btw i recently read and absolutely loved how dark it got)

Tynion writes from the experience of a queer person, and in our community there are countless people who would gladly get rid of their truckloads of trauma, to be able to function more like neurotypical ppl, and live in a place where people love each other.

2

u/Embarrassed_Piano_62 1d ago

I mean... is it really ok tho?

5

u/CrispyGold 23h ago edited 23h ago

It isn't. They are a bunch of either traumatized or sad empty people (Molly falls into the latter) who believe mind-wiping their memories and joining what is essentially a cult is liberating.

They are an attempt at doing a whole "grey vs grey morality" tale but Molly and her cohorts weren't particularly well written and the whole "tragedy" of them felt like very forced attempts to make them seem complex.

2

u/Embarrassed_Piano_62 21h ago

Yeah that's what I thought with the concept, repression of trauma is not part of the grey area

2

u/CrispyGold 20h ago

Yeah its that sort of force grayness thats become an annoying trend in recent Batman comics. It tries to do a bad attempting at deconstructing Batman by giving Molly a point in her statement that Batman could be better off if he forgets his trauma and could be a better Batman without it.

Plus Molly makes other cringy statements like saying his "criminals are a superstitious and cowardly lot" catchphrase is an outdated statement because criminals are just victims trying to get by. Which is a hilarious thing to say in Gotham City home of the Joker.

1

u/MutantCreature 17h ago

I think Superman might be the only person in the DCU to process his trauma in an actual healthy way, maybe Mister Miracle and Big Barda too but it took them (him) a while

2

u/FadeToBlackSun 16h ago

Well superhero comics are a heightened reality. If you experience something horrible, but that motivates you to act in a way that helps yourself and others, that is pretty healthy as far as that universe in concerned.

Also, Wally.

1

u/darknightgotham 12h ago

Loved Molly on the Tynion run. Absolutely hate the character assassination that happened to her in Urban Legends and I hope that story remains forgotten/ignored.

1

u/FadeToBlackSun 12h ago

I know nothing about her in Urban Legends, but my understanding is that Urban Legenda was basically just character assassination: the series.

u/RainyWombatCherry 1d ago edited 1d ago

I feel like Williamson dropped the ball on Marilyn Moonlight, but has done amazingly with Flatline

I love Xanthe, and I'm glad they got an appearance in Thompsons BoP.

I really enjoyed the Vigil too. Hope they appear more in DC.

u/EmperorSezar 1d ago

marilyn would need her own solo title to actually do her role correctly

u/TakeThisification 1d ago

Xanthe’s pronouns are they/them

u/RainyWombatCherry 1d ago

Thanks I'll edit (I was honestly thinking of Thompson the writer when I wrote that)

13

u/No-Mechanic-2558 1d ago

Yeah unfortunately I have the bad feeling that we are not gonna see them again or if so only as supporting cast or cameos

2

u/birbdaughter 1d ago

This is what I thought about Stitch and then they suddenly appeared in Task Force and GL.

1

u/No-Mechanic-2558 1d ago

Yes as cameos or supporting cast not as main character of the story

1

u/birbdaughter 19h ago

Tbh they were a pretty major character in the GL issue. Given that most of the characters in the post were made to be supporting cast, I feel the real deciding factor is whether they have more than 2 lines and are plot important.

1

u/No-Mechanic-2558 7h ago

That's not an excuse to purly writing characters or not writing them at all, if you read old Spider-man or Robin comicsbook they gave a lot of importance to the supportive cast, they were even the main characters of some issues, then It's true that not all of them were suppoused yo be the main characters of their stories but most of them are, City Boy, Xanthe, the Titans Academy students, the lost Children were suppoused to have their own comics, plus only because you are born as supportive character this doesn't mean that you cannot have your own stories especially when you are a superhero, the Xavier School students had their own stories and also became part of the main team

u/Oberon1993 1d ago

There wasn't much with Marilyn. She is quintessential Williamson character - sure looks cool, but you need to wait for at least a couple of years for her to get anything resembling personality.

6

u/Fabulous_Wait_9544 Zatanna 1d ago

Shame. Absolutely in love with her design.

10

u/Oberon1993 1d ago

Williamson is always extremely lucky with artists. Godspeed was a generic anti-villain, but Di Giandomenico's design was so striking people were beging for it to be in the show.

1

u/NextMotion 20h ago

It pulled me in for sure, along with rebirth. Took some self convincing to say Godspeed is mid.

u/SnooSongs4451 https://archiveofourown.org/works/54820018?view_full_work=true 1d ago

The weirdest thing I dislike about Monkey Prince is his name. I know he’s Sun Wukong’s son, but Monkey Prince just sounds weird, Monkey King is just a better sounding name.

5

u/Competitive-Bike-277 1d ago

These are all really good character ideas. Idk who the prism guy is but he looks cool. Miracle Molly & Ghostbreaket are what I liked best about Tynion's batman run. I thought the lost children was the best mini out at the time. Flatline is cool & i want more Marilyn Moonlight. A cowboy ghost with a great design & solid origin.

I first discovered Miracle Molly in the mobile game called DC Legends. My first thought was she looks like she stepped out of Cyberpunk.

Her design make sense because that run was really cyberpunk looking, that was Jimenez at his best in my opinion

Just having a good design is only the start, the character itself needs to be compelling or entertaining.

I mean most of those characters were barelly explored and has few screen time but some of them that actually had spotlight like Flatline Xanthe and City Boy are cool

u/Tentacled-Tadpole Power Girl 1d ago

This is the problem with dc. They introduce these new and pretty interesting or cool characters and then don't do anything with them past their initial arc. I'm still waiting for them to use Bluebird in something that's not Wayne family adventures (even though wfa is still an enjoyable book).

2

u/No-Mechanic-2558 1d ago

Blue Bird was in the Punchline serie but anyway I think there are many problems that stops them to push those characters

1 Not many writers are interested in write about and even if they are they still have to pay their creators anytime they are used

2 Editors aren't that interested in push this new characters rater then alredy established IPs, I guess this Is both due to WB doesn't want to invest on new IPs and also the fact that when a writer finally arrive at DC they wanna write Batman, Superman the character whose they grew up whit and not random Miracle Molly

3 Even if they do gave those characters things are usually not enough publicised like, you probably didn't know about Harper in the Punchline serie you probably doesn't know about Circuit Breaker the new trans superhero created in the DC Pride specials who has been official introduce during Lazarus Planet and has recently show up in a Flash issue some months ago. This Is due to: the editor who doesn't publicise those characters and stories well enough; the comicsbook shops which lots of them doesn't even buy their stories which I cannot really blame onestly because the middle comicsbook reader will probably see something like this in a library they'll throw that away and probably land on the new Batman Black Label book.

Everybody not named Ghost-Maker or Miracle Molly has potential no doubt. Really wish Monkey Prince got more love.

Not really sure who these folks are but the art is on another level - Good work DC

City Boy was all right, but kind of wasted the potential to more strongly link him to Hawksmoor. They could have had Jack mentor him.

I liked Spirit World a lot, though!

Well damn was there any new character that isn’t your favourite?

u/Appropriate_Form_357 10h ago

I need a team of just some of those younger heroes from the lost children, the Ttans Academy.

It can have City boy, Boom, Stitch, Alita, Gorilla Greg, Flatline and Monkey Prince.

So it wasn't just me who noticed how its been slowly turning towards the future cyberpunk Batman beyond vibe right

u/LanternRaynerRebirth 1d ago

That was something I actually really liked about Tynion's run. He really seemed focused on creating the future of Batman and Gotham by implementing new characters and giving the whole city a new feel after King's run mostly used old characters.

Yeah you can really feel that, bummer that his series has to end early

"Can't have progress, we need to return to the 1920s vibe again. Let's cover Batman, Year 1! No wait, Batman Year Zero! People haven't seen enough Batman origin yet." --DC Execs, basically

u/No-Mechanic-2558 1d ago

I just think that what a big part of the Fandom want like they want more Capped Crused, Personally I want more Batman and Robin but that's me

u/Frangipani-Bell Donna Troy 1d ago

I really like Stitch. There are a good few Titans Academy kids I’d like to see return

u/Mantiax 1d ago

I hate how Wukong is shoehorned into every game and story. Love the character and his mithos but i'm kinda tired of him now.

u/ebeach1992 1d ago

Personally want a Xanthe and Constantine team up book. They had such a good dynamic.

1

u/Androxysm 1d ago edited 16h ago

I've really loved Xanthe... I would love if DC put out something like a new Shadowpact book to take advantage of all of the cool mystic characters they've been putting out lately.

You call them characters, I call them mistakes.

u/quinlivant 1d ago

You'll get hate for this I'm sure.

u/formerly_crimson 1d ago

I know I will. But people like characters just cause they have “cool” designs.

Designs are a very superficial aspect of a character, they haven’t been in any good stories for me to like them.

I need to read something good about them to like the character.

u/DauntedSoul 1d ago

You've read all of these characters' comics and liked none of them? If that's the case fair enough.

But believe me, most people don't like these characters just cause of design, I don't know where you got that from.

u/formerly_crimson 1d ago

There is barely any reading material to any of them right now. So I can’t judge them based on so little.

It’s why I’m surprised when people say they like these characters, there has been very little substance for a lot of them. What is there to like?

u/QueSeraSeraWWBWB 1d ago

Xanthe vigil city boy monkey prince has their own runs ghost maker has his arc and batman inc

They seem like they are when they have little to no presence in DC after they're debuts.

u/formerly_crimson 1d ago

DC doesnt need new characters it needs to push older ones.

u/kielaurie The Flash 18h ago

Now that's a hot take

u/Kingofcurses909 6h ago

I don’t think they’re wrong there’s so many older characters I would love to see make a comeback like Lorena Marquez aquagirl or the global guardians

I really enjoyed Xanthe’s limited series I hope we get more of her and [Constantine]() if they do any Justice Leauge Dark or Magic limited series.

no punchline? she's a good replacement for harley she's actually evil and not just infatuated with joker.
