Yes. This will be awesome.
Should have called it, "Return of the Beak."

I had a feeling good things would come from Disney's Marvel buyout.
I say unsarcastically.

Apparently they talked about this prior to the buyout.

I believe that...

No, the word used for that is "Hawkeye."

I think Malcolm is too full of hate to worry about things like his own sexuality.
Also, I think "AC/DC" is the code for bi, so DC would be straight and AC gay?
No, the word used for that is "Hawkeye."
I'm sure he'd be far cooler if his named was Green Arrow.

While AC/DC can certainly mean bi, I don't think one stands for hetero/homo tendencies. Least I've not heard it used in that manner.

Green Arrow's job is to be a parody of privileged, rich society. Anything he accomplishes beyond that (not much) is purely bonus.

Green Arrow is a massive liberal, who actually becomes a mayor of somewhere, and has been commonly used by DC writers to showcase liberal agendas.
Worst character ever.

Worst hero? Yeah, he's in the running. I think this is still a greater travesty. Taken out:
Dr. Doom
The Mandarin
MODOK
Thanos
Wolverine
Deadpool (twice)
Come the fuck on. I can't remember Green Arrow smacking down Darkseid, Superman, and Batman on separate occasions without help.

Squirrel Girl is a tongue in cheek character that parodies the entire industry.
She is rarely ever brought up, and when she is, it's never for anything but humor.
Her last appearance was as a nanny for Luke and Jessica Cage, and she never got directly involved in any fighting. In fact, they never actually show her winning any fights, they just talk about how she beat Doom or Thanos, etc.
Her fight with Wolverine was shown, and involved some hand to hand until he popped his claws, and she made an army of squirrels show up. They were only sparring so he conceded at that point. It was also heavily implied that they had a romantic relationship as well.
Green Arrow is far worse because we're supposed to take him seriously.

I always imagined Hawkeye moonlighted as Green Arrow because he needed two paychecks. But seriously, most of the metas (and superhero humans) in DC are a joke, the JL roster is no exception. I'm fairly convinced Superman is just the Hulk with more baggage. Their method of solving problems is 99% similar:
1) Punch.
2) If that doesn't work, punch harder and repeat 1.

DC is the worst.
Every character has a male, female, animal, alien, future, past, and present version. There are like 50 different Batmen right now. And this is all post Infinite Crisis where they wiped out their whole continuity to make their universe more accessible to new readers.

No Superman isn't the Hulk, Doomsday is the Hulk. He's the one that killed Superman.

Dazzler.
Nah, she's a "hot chick", not a pasty, bitter white liberal.

Yeah, Marvel and its Ultimates, Zombies, parallel dimensions/clones/universes/whatever don't even compare.

An arrow, if properly fired on unarmoured, vital spot, can be lethal. Dazzler's only useful if you're going up against dudes who are also prone to seizures from bright lights.

They both have dumb shit like that, but DC has most of it in their main universe, and not other what if universes, which is what Marvel does...for the most part.
Marvel also hasn't reset their continuity TWICE in the past two decades, and somehow still keep these stupid copies of their characters around.
You want to talk about the true difference between DC and Marvel?
Way back in the day, Stan Lee and his crew gave their heroes human emotions, needs, desires, and FLAWS. Meanwhile, DC continued to make their heroes infallible. A trend that sort of continues today. Marvel has heroes that people can relate to, while DC has "gods".

The flaw in your logic is that you've forgotten he's a fucking communist liberal fucktard. He can't be lethal.

That's the opposite of my sentiment.

I disagree, I think Star Trek is superior to Star Wars, which is why I prefer to use my PC instead of a Mac when I'm talking on my Android (not iOS) smartphone.
In conclusion, Coke > Pepsi.
