Filler. Inconsistent artwork on the Venom Beyond story arc. Cates took interesting characters like Codex and Virus and just made them completely useless. The "emotional breakthrough" to solve the conflict within this arc felt cheap and silly. I was very hyped for King in Black, I still am, but not as much as before. This arc started out so well, but ended as a mess. Hopefully King in Black is a st more

Both overwhelming and underwhelming at the same time. It’s hard to believe that it was written by the same Scott Snyder who wrote The Court of Owls.
The Darkest Knight has won. With absolute power at the villain’s fingertips, Wonder Woman and the rest of the DC heroes are nothing to him. As the Darkest Knight turns his sights to his true goal, remaking the Multiverse in his image, can Earth’s heroes rally together to make a last stand?

Better than the last issues.
I think that the problem with DC is that their Universe was never like Marvel. There is a lot of stuff and characters that changed too drastically over the years and it´s just impossible to imply that everything can be canon, because there would be a lot of nonsense.
Pretending all this characters are the same they were from before flashpoint more

The artwork as always was fantastic, however I felt there were certain issues with the story. Snyder retains his bloated exposition-heavy writing, and the resolution within the story felt unearned and sudden (Superboy Prime). Still a fun and silly read.
