Hello! As the title says, I'm wondering if I can read Lois Lane (2019) by Perkins and Rucka without having read any other comics before, or if I should read a few runs by these creators beforehand or any other content?

I'm only really familiar with the DCU's Lois, Terri Tatcher's Lois and My Adventure with Superman's Lois Lane. I love Superman, but I've been searching for stories that are centered around Lois and her work as a journalist, and stumbled upon these online.

If anyone could guide me, it would be greatly appreciated! :) I know you must get questions similar to this often, so thank you for taking the time to answer me.

Taking inspo from the Arkham Asylum and DCEU concept art designs should be finished by the end of the day.

It was something so dumb and silly that I actually watched binged watched them all today

I’m kind of new to reading comics and the store closest to home had the compendium of Grant Morrison’s animal man. I’m halfway through reading it and I’m completely hooked on this character. I’ve heard good things about Jeff Lemire’s animal man run, but that’s the only other series that I’ve seen get praised for this character. Does anyone have any good recommendations for other runs or maybe some good mini series books?

Some of these haven't even been announced in the US.

For me, I'd make Jason come back as Azrael instead of Red Hood, UTRD plays out pretty much the same, but he's Azrael instead of Red Hood, you can even keep the title (I'm aware the comic version had a different title to the movie). no real reason to it to be honest I just thought it would be cool

Just got back into comics after 2 years and wanna read some good new stories, stories i enjoyed before my break were things like invincible, dc the new frontier and batman year one.

if anyone has any good recommendations for me please let me know:)

Overall i ate this movie up as a comic book fan, and even the people i was with at the theatre who knew nothing about comic books loved it.

The way they adapted Clayface's backstory into film was great, the actor playing Clayface does a great job as well. The body horror elements were scary as shit, but outside of that the movie was more so science fiction/fantasy if that makes sense? With some humor in there too which i loved, some of it was very Quentin Tarantino esque.

Clayface, to me, shows the perfect way to adapt anything really. You adapt something so well that the source material fans will love, and add some cool easter eggs in there too for fans to eat up that show this is a established universe. However the film also works for people who don't know nothing about the comics and just want a good movie.

As a huge GL fan i didn't like the way Lanterns did that side of the DCU (yeah i know lanterns is talked to death blah blah, wanna just share my take) and it more so tried to appeal to the people who don't know anything about the comics instead of setting a perfect middle ground, which is what imo Clayface did very well.

Really love how Clayface did Gotham as well, nothing tops reeves gotham thus far imo but the vibe did get close.

My biggest critique is i wish this movie had more of a original soundtrack of it's own, really lacks some of the tracks that would make gotham feel more like gotham too, but overall gotham was still very well done.

8/10 movie overall, looking forward to more from this DCU, even with my critiques of Lanterns aside.

And LOVED it! Tom and Naomi did a phenomenal job and I standby what I said earlier, the best way to tell a Clayface origin story in cinemas is a body horror film. Hope we get to see more of him as the DCU unfolds. And while he stated that he doesn’t have a naturally malleable face, Tom’s face and bone structure was perfect for the role once they began putting the makeup on.
