Not really a fan of the redesign but I have I always wondered why Blue Devil didn't look more satanic.

And I like that the 'fun' will return. I'm in.

Because he was really just a stuntman magically stuck in an armored suit.

Only at the beginning. He was a true demon for most of his existence.

So are you imagining the costume sort of like this?

But it's a "happy fun" kinda gay whereas the new design is more along the lines of "Oh shit! I think I'm in the wrong kind of nightclub" kinda gay which isn't a bad thing, per se, it's just not my thing.

I wish that Blue Devil costume had nipple rings with a chain attaching them together.

Yeah, I always thought that change was kind of dumb idea. It turned him from something interesting into a character that really didn't stand out. He was originally a glitzy Hollywood stuntman who had all kinds of weird and strange things happen to him -- pretty much a one of a kind character in the DCU. After he went total demon he was just another minor DC mystic character.

Eh...I suppose. I actually had to look that up. If we're talking chronologically, then yes. But considering how often he's been off the board, it feels like a draw to me. The stuntman version is the one I gravitate toward.

Good god more Booth shit. This guy must give amazing head because thats the only way I can see him getting work. His art is just the worst.

So I see DC just keeps flushing my favorite characters right down the shitter. I love Andreyko but this just looks horrible.

Every time they announce a new project I die a little inside. Earth 2 was the best thing they've done and that went to hell after issue 1.
