I don’t know what it is: but this and absolute carnage fell flat for me. They both started off amazing and then disappointed in the end. They basically gave it the end of the green lantern movie. And i enjoyed Eddie when he was just a street level hero, not a cosmic entity. It’s gotten a little out of hand for me.

I would say it felt rushed and a bit unearned. This was a very powerful being and it was the typical heros get taken over only to be saved and help defeat the big bad. I still loved the event and story i just didnt get that WOW factor. It was just cool as hell but not something new really

That's Cates for ya. I like the dude but he always starts off super strong and can't wrap up/finish a series if his life depended on it. Stegman is always amazing at least.
