The Absolute universe is so refreshing. They're taking advantage of being able to change so many iconic aspects of the characters and making really engaging and enjoyable stories with unique takes on the characters we know and love. Unsurprisingly Absolute Batman has been my favourite so far, but I also adore Absolute Superman and Wonder Woman. Can't wait to see what they do with other DC characters, and how this universe's Trinity (and possibly its Justice League) could form.
I think what makes it cool is the core of the characters are all still there, I loved Lois describing superman. It is essentially these characters who they are at their core when you remove their original circumstances and advantages from their main self's, batman not having infinite money, wonder women not being the princess of thymescera, Superman spending a chunk of his life on krypton
My Absolute (pun intended) favorite part about these stories is that they feel so fleshed out, that I can genuinely, see myself travelling to an alternate universe, and these being the MAIN versions of the characters, and our normal version of the character is their version of the "Absolute" universe. Remarkable stuff, truly, I want DC to do Absolute versions of all of their characters (and there are comics being made for Absolute Martiam Manhunter, The Flash and Green Lantern right now, so that's awesome)
Don’t get me wrong, these versions will never replace the standard edition of the iconic DC heroes but they’re not supposed to. This is supposed to be a fun alternate take where you remove a key element of their story and see what their life is like without it. And I love how this logic applies to every character, not just our main heroes. For example they removed Alfred’s relationship with Bruce, meaning that you get an Alfredo that is more cold and calculating but can’t help but admire Batman when they encounter. It’s still true to who Alfred is but also fundamentally different.
I won't lie when I saw absolute batman I disliked it because it was like Batffleck/DKR and the logo is what killed it for me but the moment he pull the axe out and chopped that dudes hand off, I hand my hands and and was like. "Alright, you got it, I'll shut up" Imagine seeing this dude in an alley way pulling out various weapons, including a shotgun that shoots batarangs. I'd rather spill the beans, I'd rather take myself offline before I let bro come near me.
I'd like a version of Batman who does kill, but only as a last resort. Kinda like CW Green Arrow. To go with this, Joker wouldn't be an individual, but a conscious that takes over a new body whenever he's killed.
I can’t believe this is the first time I’ve thought of this but, adapting these into animation some day would be Absolutely incredible
That's how I was feeling while reading them. It could be a way to get their animation back to what it used to be.
Definitely been enjoying the Absolute DC Universe.
Ethical integrity is clearly going to be an intentional theme in Batman, love that

I am also loving absolute universe.
Swole Batman is a monster. He's definitely on P.E.D.s, but Spectre's Eyes... Imagine his Bane. That dude would be 9' of pure musculature.
Absolute bane is gonna be a kaiju,ngl💀
Batman may not be wealthy, but man, he is smuggling a lot of tech
It’s also so strange to have the familiarity but also almost feel like these are literally new characters.
Absolute review TMM!!!
Can you make a reaction and opinion video on new Superman short trailer?
Are we gonna ignore the fact Lois said Sups smell good and describe what he smelled like😂
This Batman is soooo cool. He’s finally relatable to the working class.
The absolute universe is fire fr
It some of the biggest interest I've had in mainline comics for a while.
i haven't even gotten the comic books on the absoute universe yet but from the videos ive seen taalking about it it llooks cool so far

Dude when I saw him cut off a guy's hand I genuinely couldn't believe it. He's one of the most brutal Batman's we've seen.
Why I like absolute so much is these changes they make actual changes to characters to try something new and not change for the sake of change or dei
Ya they're genuinely trying new things, out of love for creative freedom. Whether people like those changes or not I applaud people for doing it.
Have you made a DC take on Secret Wars?
Yeah he has th-cam.com/video/swRVraep5gs/w-d-xo.htmlsi=t_LWihftmcD-z5Mq
Kal needs a haircut
Lol I'm sure it'll be part of his character progression
@@tyrellmultimedia to me, long hair just doesn't look good on him.
I wouldnt be opposed to a man-bun lol@seanmalloy0528
So is the Absolute line replacing the Earth One line which already replaced the All-Star line 😂

Is ok
❤❤❤
I also don't like Lois Lane and also MJ from Spiderman.
I’m first!!
