Vision is still really good. His Batman run, not so much.

So, I know timey whimey stuff has happened and now Cyborg is an original member of the JL but Cyborg said he "founded the team"
When did that happen?
And I want things to be real, or as real as they can be in comics but the Flash parts were too much!!! Too many words to describe fake science to make it sound like real science.
And who did Flash save?

I suppose this should be a 10 just because it was an UNDO button for last issue which was steaming garbage. this issue basically reverses everything from last issue. either someone really told Tom King to wipe this crap under the rug, or else he planned this all along - that he'd just waste two issues doing nothing but stirring up the pot for no reason. either way he seems like an asshat to me more

the entire premise of the 'Gentle Man' and Everlasting Hoard is just dumb.
i hope we never see or hear of this idea again.
the whole thing felt like just a cheap excuse to get Bruce and Dianna alone together for years on end.
i have other gripes with this story, but my head hurts too much from reading this comic to even get into it right now.

agreed. he has some good ideas. i'm not sure if his a clue how to write a scenario without it feeling forced. as far as the Gentle Man, the never ending waves on Monsters and the time ratio, it just felt like a cheap and convenient plot device to me.
i just hope for the readers of action comics #761 that it had better writing.

What was the point of this arc?

No really. What did this accomplish? Batman looking cool while standing next to his friends? Because that's all I got. If it was about how Selina and Bruce could go literally decades to see eachother again, King would have spent more than one page on it. If it was to further a FRIENDSHIP, the Superman was fine. But all this part did was make Wonder Woman a cheap device to make fans go "Oh, I WONDER!" In short, I'm with Weird Science on this one.
i thought the Superman portion was ok. not amazing, just ok. but this Wonder Woman chapter just plain SUCKED! all it was was just an excuse to create melodrama, and get everyone all in an uproar about Batman and Wonder Woman almost kissing. it fully relied on the suspense of people having to wait two weeks to see if they actually kissed or not. but that doesn't make for a good re-read since the suspense is now gone. plus this arc really didn't make Wonder Woman look very good as a character.

• It's basically Action Comics #761.
• The plot that you can fight for so many years without any consequence in your mental health was stupid then, it's stupid now.
• If the door can only be opened from our world, why do they need a warrior keeping the demons at bay? It's the same thing with the UN - Justice League agreement that "no one can enter Talia's Kingdom", but without expl more

Yeah, I agree the double-page wasn't very good. When you choose to add a double-page with action it means that the art will cover the lack of dialogue, but in this case was very empty. Also, IMO, the worst panel was Wonder Woman's ass shot. Very distasteful.
definitely! that empty looking art was just a waste of two pages just to pad the comic. i could not believe the ass shot either. the tail-end of the comic had the writing and plotting of a Porn flick. . . . HA HA! "tail-end".
