I agree with you big time, that other writers should've been able to trip or attempt to fake trip like Morrison.<br />Nope. only one GM.<br /><br />Didn't read the Last Laugh one, but other than the Jim lee covers, what really was the appeal?<br /><br />BD.....Big let down as far as I'm concerned. What was that really about anyways? Just an excuse to bring back some characters and Swamp Thing. I guess the concept was dent, but as usual, the exectuion has a lot to be desired.Mr. Morbid's House Of Funhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06721085161381688977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37809963.post-79644917600151967782014-03-25T03:59:07.433-04:002014-03-25T03:59:07.433-04:00DC hmmm, I HATED Joker's Wild. DC's number...DC hmmm, I HATED Joker's Wild. DC's number one villain could've made an awesome tie in series of events but it was just shat over.<br /><br />DC One Million was the same. That could've been really sweet on every level, but the writers who couldn't trip incredible with Morrison just couldn't write tie ins that were that different from the actual books.<br /><br />Countdown. Yeah I'll leave that one there.. poor Donna Troy.<br /><br />Never read Genesis or Final Night, Stopped reading Green Lantern after Brightest Day and like you say what the hell happened. Brightest Day chumped me because I brought it all, and you could tell the adventures of Manhunter and Hawkman were editorially stomped over and changed where Aquaman ran wild. MM coulda really done good there. The Captain Planet-ish revival of Swamp Thing had me cursing for months...<br /><br />Like everything post DC 52 ;)<br /><br />I loved DC post Identity Crisis leading into Infinite Crisis. That was the only time in too long a time the whole line of books seemed to row in the same direction. the OMAC threat, the secret, it really seemed like a cohesive universe then.<br /><br />IADWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08339648236279349271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37809963.post-74275031160772464862014-03-24T17:02:04.524-04:002014-03-24T17:02:04.524-04:00@Omega: No, sorry man, can't say I have.

I really have no idea what it was meant to have amounted to. We had sub-standard artwork, not to mention sub-standard writing. I did buy Byrne's Fourth World series at the same time and it was interesting so from this I expected better.<br />Final Night? I only got it for the LSH tie-in and the proposed Ferro Lad sacrificing himself a la the same way he did against the Sun Eater back in the 60s, but no such luck, no. Obviously the whole thing was a set-up for bringing back Hal Jordan from the dregs of defeat a la Parrallax. It did that fine enough.karlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07814365568280298681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37809963.post-15782014800853976062014-03-24T13:41:36.934-04:002014-03-24T13:41:36.934-04:00@King: Not bad choices for your list man.

Actually Googum and I talked yesterday about how bad Annual "events" like Bloodlines(at least we got Hitman out of it) and Planet DC were.<br /><br />I can easily rip on NU52 stuff, so I won't. It'd be like making fun of special needs kids organizing the special Olympics; too easy.<br /><br />I agree on the whole Captain Atom thing. Someone asshole leaked it, and DC panicked.

I started out a DC kid, grew...Ahhh, now on to DC. <br />I started out a DC kid, grew up a Marvel kid- but went back to DC as an adult- because they are just the best!(Until the reboot, that is...)<br />So- unlike with the Marvel post: I'ma disagree with you here a bit. Starting with- I love Geoff Johns. I just do. What he does just works for me. Always has...<br /><br />Now, I don't hate Genesis. It's not great. But I would not put it on a list of my least-favorites. By the way- props for calling it "least-favorite" and not 'most hated' or something like that. Even though I may have said the h-word in my comment on your Marvel Post a few times... it was a slip of the tongue. Hate is too strong of a word- I love comics, I can dislike comics... but internet rage/hate is sooo 2010. -Get over it, people. (I still HATE Bendis, though! ...old habits die hard.)<br />Anyways- my #5 would be: a tie. Cop-out, I know. But Armageddon 2001 because fuck them for not sticking to their guns and making it Captain Atom all along! I know they "fixed it" years later in Countdown or whatever but still. <br />And Bloodlines... good Gods did they have faith in Bloodlines for some reason. They shoved it down our throats and it tasted awful!<br /><br />Like with Genesis, I'm okay with Final Night, too... I mean, it was whatever. I like Hal Jordan so... <br />For me- Joker: Last Laugh was just so unnecessary... and it was like a black-hole of fun. It was so unenjoyable- it's like they just did it in their sleep just to do it... Shut up- you'll buy it. -Because; Joker.<br /><br />Infinite and Identity Crisis were some of my favorites. I love them. I love watching people flip-out with rabid hatred over them. To me they are just REALLY good and got me full-swing back into DC comics...<br />Now- where they started to lose me again was with my number three and two picks: Amazons Attack, and Countdown. WOW, were those bad. I could not believe my eyes each week with Countdown- at just HOW bad it continued to be. <br /><br />Blackest night faltered a bit with them dragging it out a little too long. And I have yet to get to reading all of Brightest Day. So I can't speak on that.<br />And I can't pick any of the Nu52 Events because that's just cheating! They all suck ass! (Okay, okay- if you twist my arm: Rotworld, and Trinity War were pretty good.) But it would just be TOO EASY to pick The Culling, or Death of The Family as my #1... <br /><br />My #1 least favorite is Batman: The Return of Bruce Wayne. That was... it was just too stupid, even for me.<br /><br />The King of Thessalyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15406771819941242204noreply@blogger.com
