Blackest Night is awesome and is pretty much the only DC reading to allow her.

Show her some Marvel. Show her X-Men.

Do not show her Ultimate universe anything. If you do, fuck you. That shit DID NOT HAPPEN.

No need to waste the effort; Any comic in which Barbara Gordan makes an appearance will cover it.

(I think that's actually the only DC comic I've read, unless Watchmen was DC)
Correct!

Make her read Kingdom Come which is fucking fantastic and red Son is good if you like candy!

Oh man, if she hasn't she needs to watch Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker. That movie is so ace.

Marvel is easy right now it's like, nothing that says Spider Man in the title, nothing that says Ultimate anywhere on the cover, everything else is somewhere between "ehhhhhh it's aihgt" and "**** YES"

You know I think that I can be cool with anything at all comic-wise and I could even deal with Ultimate for the most part despite it being terrible until we hit Cable is Future Wolverine! and at about that point I actually just gave away a stack of Ultimates to my roommate who used them in the fireplace to start flames.

I think the worst part of Ultimates (and this is me going by TV tropes and Atop the Fourth Wall) is the fact they upped the squick factor by having Quicksilver bang Scarlet Witch!

There is no amount of Brain Bleach that will clean me.

See, I'm kinda glad that I know, like, NOTHING about non-everybody-knows-these-guys comic book heroes, aside from a couple names here and there. Otherwise, that information may have hurt my head.

The thing that bothers me most about the Ultimate line is how it seems as though recent writers have decided that the only thing that had to be dropped from it was the only thing that made it even remotely interesting: the idea that it was a reimagining of the original, and not just a GRIMMIER, GRITTIER rethreading.

For example: hippy, ambiguous Thor with an electric axe-hammer appears to have become regular Thor but with the shallow darkness of the Ultimate series tarnishing the character.

It looks as though the movies (Iron Man first and now Thor possibly with a subplot about his divinity being in question) retain more of the Ultimate tweaking of the characters that the books themselves.

Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch are siblings. Quicksilver is Scarlet Witch's brother.
