I was on locg and i saw that they had a new dc compact comic announced written by Neil Gaiman. Isnt he like an abuser??? I know dc still is a bootlicker for Tom King so i know theyre not angels, but Neil Gaiman's controversy only recently came out and he's been removed from his other projects. Surely they know that most of Neil Gamain's former fans aren't gonna buy the comic because he sucks?
Adding the manga I've read to LOCG might have been a mistake 'cause they're clogging up the Characters reading stat
so here's the count for top 350 DC characters read, as of today
*LOGC splits main universe appearances with alternate universe appearances. So even though I've read stuff like DC: Bombshells, The New Frontier, DC vs Vampires, some Absolute runs, etc. , those appearances won't factor into these numbers.
🦇 Bruce Wayne, as Batman with 620, as just Bruce with 64, as Matches Malone with 12 = 696
🦇🐣 Tim Drake, as Robin with 385, as Red Robin with 92, as just Tim with 46 (my main boy! of course he's in the top 5 🥰) = 523
🦇🐣 Dick Grayson, as Nightwing with 235, as Robin with 136, as Batman with 50, as just Dick with 42 = 463
🦇 Alfred Pennyworth with 291 (never intentionally read for Alfred, but makes sense that he's here)
🦇 Barbara Gordon, as Oracle with 186, as Batgirl with 75, as just Barbara with 23 = 284
Clark Kent, as Superman with 243, as just Clark with 29 = 272 (honestly, I'm surprised he's this high up)
⚡Bart Allen, as Impulse with 186 (love Young Justice 1998 and Impulse 1995 ❤️), as Kid Flash with 46, as The Flash with 8, as just Bart with 14 = 254
Jim Gordon with 217 (also never picked up something specifically for him lol, but makes sense too)
Cassie Sandsmark, as Wonder Girl with 184, as just Cassie with 17 = 201
🟣🦇 Stephanie Brown, as Spoiler with 92, as Batgirl with 76, as Robin with 18, as just Steph with 14 = 200
Kon-El as Superboy with 198
⚡Wally West, as The Flash with 120, as Kid Flash with 68, as just Wally with 7 = 195
Joker with 174 (nooooo)
🟢 Hal Jordan, as Green Lantern with 157, as Parallax with 7, as Spectre with 9 = 173 (I got into reading the 1960 Green Lantern run this year 😊 Hal will surpass Joker soon)
🦇 Cassandra Cain, as Batgirl with 123, as Orphan with 9, as just Cass with 21 = 153 (my main girl! she will go up as I read more of her 2000 solo and then -- eventually -- her new solo. I've just been on such a Hal kick recently that I've been neglecting her 😓)
Dinah Laurel Lance as Black Canary with 133
🦇🐣 Jason Todd, as Red Hood with 62, as Robin with 50, as just Jason with 19 = 131
