This is the worst.

Not enough Klarion.

Thanks, I hated this. The dialogue, the art, the irritating cutesy speech impediments. This was a bad time.

Welp, I hated that.

This was... wow... really not very good. There were so many jokey issues and like the joke was “lol look how different and weird she is, isn’t she different and weird, that’s so gross. But like... that’s the exact antithesis of the point the author claimed to be making? This was honestly a mess and I don’t understand at all why they made this.

I have SO MUCH to say about this garbage heap, and I don’t even know if I want to get into it because oh my gOD. Let me know if you want to know I guess.

This was intensely stupid for a lot of reasons, not least of which was the frankly abysmal use, abuse, and unnecessary deaths of several very cool DC characters who tbh deserved a lot better than they got.

I have not learned a single character's name and they are all featureless blobs to me. I could not pick a single one of them out of a lineup.

I'm still less than halfway through? how? i've been reading this for years!

Free at last, free at last, thank god almighty I am free at last.

Oh wow, okay. No. No thank you.

Wow. I always thought that I hated the future, but now I see that that hatred was a pale thing, a mere reflection of the hatred I feel while reading this meaningless future drivel.

Pure garbage. This was painful to read.

I wonder if Bendis thinks those floaty name tag things are the same thing as character development.

Oh my god yes please let’s bring an end to the Legion of Super-Heroes.

This is not a very good comic. I’d say it’s not a good story, but... what story?

Reading this feels like how I imagine it feels to have a psychotic break and start hearing things. A dozen voices are screaming at me, nothing makes any sense, and somewhere deep down I am sure that somebody is trying to hurt me.

Sorry, what? I was so distracted by the bad dialogue I think I missed most of the incomprehensible plot.

Imagine being so bad at developing characters that you have to write them introducing themselves straight to the audience. Imagine telling on yourself like that. Also, could everybody please shut up? For forever, ideally.

I tried so hard not to drop this comic. But I’m dropping it. God this is so annoying to read. Some of the art was nice at least.

This is a uniquely awful comic. Nothing is good about it and everybody who has given it a 10/10 should be ashamed of themselves.

God, as if this comic wasn’t bad enough, now we’re having to deal with that fuckin guy.

Honestly the worst crime Rogol Zaar ever committed was the complete and utter annihilation of my patience.

muh grandbabies

OMG this is like so youthful lol I can tell the writer is totes connected 2 the youth.

I hope they all die next.

I really aggressively did not like this. Seven Soldiers things aside (and that was a huge sore spot for me, don't even get me started, too many spoilers), the dialogue was really bad, the plot is stupid, that whole bullying thing was insanely dumb, and I love how he was like "not answering the phone was the dumbest thing I've ever done! proceeds to ignore several calls from his bff" also I'm sorry but I haaaaaate that whole "I must stay away from her for her own safety... I must be cruel to save her!" shit. It is a tired and hackneyed trope and I despise it with all my heart and soul.

I don’t care about any of these soon-to-be-dead characters.

Thank god this is over.

Literally why is this happening to me?

Whatever.

No.

Why did I let you convince me to read this?

I only read the Joker War tie-in. It... was not worth it.

Uggggggh.

Go away please.

This is dumb on a number of levels and I anticipate it will continue being so until time dies.

This comic continues to suck. There is no way that Silencer's stupid child is tall enough to ride half of the rides they put him on.

I guess we see where her son gets it from.

Honestly this issue was just bland and I don’t care about this stupid organization or this stupid character or her stupid family.

Definitely the worst of the minis so far. I guess I shouldn’t be surprised, given who wrote it.

Aw... cheese on bread.

Oh my god how is his dialogue always SO BAD.

I wish I’d been stabbed through the chest by Omega Red, then I wouldn’t have had to read this.

I’m so glad this is over.

This was just not very good. I wanted to love this because CGR is my precious cosmic son, but it didn’t work at all. There were definitely some okay moments, but on the whole I’m not here for this.

Thanks! I hate it.

Interminable.

Cosmic Ghost Rider Destroys My Faith in Comics.

I got so excited because when I started reading this I mistakenly believed it was the 6th issue... needless to say.

I guess the real Cosmic Ghost Rider was the cool characters we destroyed along the way.

I hope they all die.

This is still terrible.

This was pretty cringey. Leave Owen Mercer and the fine people of Australia alone.

This comic tries so hard, but all it can do... is suck.

This comic sucks so much. All of the characters are characterless blobs. They are always dealing with some stupid world-ending catastrophe when literally none of them are equipped for it, I hate it and I hate that it’s happening to characters that I care so much about.

How can you possibly fail so bad at telling a story that your entire final issue needs to be wall to wall exposition? BTW I love how this is basically that moon monster story but again and somehow worse. Jesus Christ I’m so glad this comic is over.

Yes, now is the perfect time to go over my painful backstory in detail, this is a good way to do this. Better than last time but as compliments go, that's not one.

I don't care about these characters or their feelings.

These characters actively irritate me.

I find it hard to connect with any of these characters or their struggle, I don’t really understand their goal either.

This was really not!

What is happening?

Thank the sweet lord this is over.

That's a lotta damage.

Long, drawn out sigh.

I don’t know or care about these characters. They are walking caricatures, dancing along a depressingly familiar path. There is nothing new under the sun, and this comic wants to make sure we know it.

Yeah this one didn’t work for me, which is a shame because I like the characters. The art really bothered me.

This is trying so, so hard.

These both dragged a little and while they had some good ideas they really weren’t used that well.

Why did this silly bitch fight her way into her own building and kill her own people? Why are people not allowed to discuss operations in their own headquarters? Why is this so boring?

This comic is such a mess I just can’t even deal with it.

This comic is such literal garbage and tbh I’m offended on behalf of every single character who was forced to endure the indignity of being in it.

Please end this and put us all out of our misery.

Terrible to the end. You have to respect that kind of consistency.

My favourite thing is how everybody is dumb and mostly useless and they’re constantly on the verge of losing even though they have a basically omnipotent sex predator on their team.

I think this would be a really good idea if it was developed and written better and maybe executed with any sort of wit.

This was stupid and lame as per usual. The "scary villain" is not scary. The song the children sing is not scary. This is a bad and dumb comic.

I really don't care about this comic or these characters.

I continue to struggle with the characters in this comic.

I’m just like whatever about this comic, I don’t know these people.

Whaaaaaaat was the point of this?

This was trying so hard, but I don’t think pity was what they were angling for...

Clark?? Dad, what is that?

d a d w h a t i s t h a t

I'm really glad it's over.

So whaaaaat if you murdered thirteen people in cold blood? You look so saaaaad about it now. And besides, you released all of their deepest, most personal confessions, which were never supposed to be released or even seen by anyone ever, violating their trust, their privacy, and their dignity in death. That’s what a hero does!

Haha wow the dialogue in this is b a d.

“Oh no, our world is overrun by superpowered vampires! Guess it’s time for a luau!”

In what world does “name” rhyme with “Etrigan”. Also it’s weird that he’s taking such a passive tone about the mass murder he committed. “Oh no, all the heroes who died… because of me.” Do you mean “Oh no, all the people I murdered”? Because that’s who they actually are.

This remains garbage.

My man Timewarp Fluglehorn, dropping mad exposition to the very end. What a garbage fire.

This was a supremely unsatisfying ending to a supremely unsatisfying story arc, the whole climax was really kinda lame and I’m sorry but that stupid kraken should have been fully in the ocean by the time they all finished monologuing about their feelings.

Sorry Br'er Lapin.

This is way too jumbly for me. It’s all the same things I disliked before, but again. Could do without the tired old “hey kids maybe get off your phones” thing. Also, why was he sitting on a giant penis on the first page?

Dear lord this is so annoying to read. Just... ugh. The tone, the dialogue, the plot, the everything.

What.

Go away, future story.

This comic is so boring and I don't care about the flashbacks.

I didn’t really care for this. The art bothered me a lot. The dialogue was so cringey.

This comic is very generic and boring. We got our Super Special Rebellious Protag, endless dialogue exposition, stupid magic girl outfits, it’s all so boring while trying very hard to be special and unique. Will not continue with this one, thanks.

This is so Tim Seeley.

You know how I felt about this.

I think this had some neat ideas but I don't think they were executed particularly well. Dialogue was a bit of a sticking point for me.

“I know, I’ll just tell everyone over and over that they’re all real sad! This is expert character development, I’m a genius.”

This comic spends a lot of time reassuring us about the relationship between the characters, and not a lot of time actually showing them. Really loving that literally nobody is sad that Wally is dead.

Oh my god. My favourite thing about this comic is how the author doesn’t understand how to show how the characters are feeling, so he just has them internal monologue it to us FOREVER. My other favourite thing is how Raven constantly tells us she has no emotions and then reacts emotionally to things. I work with people who have flattened affect and low emotionality, and she is so very not that.

A lot of things about this really irritated me, I don’t want to waste my energy on it.

I honestly just can’t get over how bad these people are at writing apathetic and emotionless. This should be so easy! How are you so stupid?!

Blood vessels. Haemo sapiens. I refuse. This was the best issue in a while, but only because the Titans weren’t in it. I think this villain is pretty boring.

This honestly feels like such a slog to get through. Nothing is connecting for me, it’s just thing after thing, all just happening for no real reason, forever.

Why does this comic suck so much? The plot is tedious, the characters suck, I want this to end.

Just die please.

I’m glad it’s done.

Much like the rest of these titles, this comic does pretty much nothing new or innovative and I genuinely could not care less about the characters or their world. It is all blandly, blankly competent in a way that is singularly unimpressive.

This was... a lot. I guess it’s nice that it wasn’t slow and boring? But it tipped a little too far in the other direction.

Well yes this certainly did happen, and, um, that’s good? Good for you for happening, Young Justice. These characters are all just featureless blobs and I can already tell that this story arc is going to be interminable.

Hey, did you know that they’re all in pits? With little windows at the top? But nobody’s blaming anybody, Cassie.

This is so boring and none of the characters are interesting enough to help me get over the boredom.

Such a mess.

Just bleh. I don't care about a single one of these characters any more than I did when this series started 6 issues ago, and now they’re out of one complicated and boring situation and dumped into another. What am I supposed to do? Care?

Honestly, this one wasn’t offensive, but it was a low grade annoying that I just couldn’t get into. Why is Dr. Fate talking like that? I also still don’t care about the characters.

Wow that was a mess.

Haha wow why is this comic a thing still?

Worse than gingivitis kisses.

Good yeah great we just got everybody back to the proper time and place but no yeah for sure what we need is to just completely undo that and go dimension hopping again, love it.

Oh my goodness please stop bringing mediocre teens into this already extremely subpar comic, I don’t think I can handle any more talking.

How is it that nobody speaks or thinks like a real person in this comic? Even a stopped clock is right twice a day, and it doesn’t hear normal clocks telling the time every single goddamn day!!!

Bendis is so bad at managing teams (or just characters in general let’s be honest), yet he just keeps piling them on, overwhelming himself and the reader with a deluge of madness and incomprehensibility.

Fuck no. This is LoSH all over again and I won’t stand for it.

This comic is just a frustrating thing to read. Everything is just people explaining stuff to us, and the dialogue and humour largely falls flat.

The dialogue is so frustrating. This comic took forever to read and nothing was gained.

What a waste of my time.

Will it surprise you to hear that this was lame? I doubt that it will. This was lame.

This was uniquely bad. It died as it lived: talking way too fucking much and also being just stupid and bad in every conceivable way.

When will I be free of this?

I grow ever more weary of this comic and this plot line. I don't understand what is happening or why it is happening. Is Deathstroke the stupidest person in the world? Am I, for continuing to read this?

This style of writing really doesn’t work for me. Not excited for the crossover.

I really don’t like his writing style, so this was a tough read for me. I don’t like the Teen Titans and I don’t like Deathstroke, so tbh I hope they all die.

Good. Now kill the rest of them.

This comic is really failing to connect with me on an emotional level, and it’s making it hard for me to really empathize with the characters or care about their plights.

I think that this definitely had some things to say, but at the same time I felt like the approach was sort of frustratingly surface. I assume that they’re going to eventually give us more, but as it is, I don’t know, I don’t think that I’ve really been convincingly sold on their struggle.

...We definitely know that Troy was a real place but okay.

This comic continues to disappoint me. I’m glad that the mystery seems to be finally getting somewhere, but that’s mostly because I want it to be over. Most of what’s happening is kinda stupid, and that last thing with Harley, oof.

This comic is showing once again that hard lean onto freshman philosophy and quotes that makes reading it feel like a chore. It’s kind of lame that we’re getting these flashbacks to characters that are already dead, as if that’s going to make me feel bad about them being dead. I’m not going to get emotionally attached to them, Tom King. I will not weep for them. They are already dead.

I would have rather been brutally murdered by someone I trusted.

I’m so grateful that this series is putting out the message that we need to hear: the mentally ill are dangerous and they will hurt you. It is only a matter of time until they snap and kill us all. Thanks Tom King!

“I just want you to understand, and I cannot stress this enough, that people who have mental health issues will absolutely lose control and hurt you.” I learned nothing about any of the characters. I somehow unlearned things I knew about mental health. I hated every moment of it. Let us never speak of this again.

This was honestly pretty meh for me but not exactly offensive.

No thank you.

Oh wow can’t believe that that new evil lady was the new evil bad guy what a twist.

This comic is just so blah, I don’t like the new villain and it feels like nothing is happening.

“I’m the secret head of an ultra secret and disavowed government task force!” Amanda Waller shrieks covertly in the middle of a busy street.

This comic is just so blah. The dialogue is trying so hard and the plot is paced so weirdly and Lois is some sort of unfeeling psychopath now. The art was nice.

This issue felt even more poorly written than usual. Like I was actually struggling to make sense of their dialogue at parts.

No thank you.

Bleh.

Every development feels like pulling teeth. I don’t have a good time reading this.

I actually would not like to hear her secret origin, thanks though.

God, as if this boring comic wasn’t bad enough, now Naomi’s here.

Omg you guys Naomi is like so special and Superman thinks she’s the coolest and best and also she has like the most powerful power in the whole world and she’s so pretty and cool and she would totally beat up AMY from SCHOOL who’s so MEAN to me even though I’ve been NOTHING BUT NICE, but anyways she’s my OC pls don’t steal.

Who watches the ultra-powerful god being? Not us, we busy. Who watches the evil scientists who watch the ultra-powerful god being at our request? Um us I guess, we not that busy.

Reading this is a struggle on a number of levels.

An annoying reporter asking questions? Yeah, the jump to immediate murder feels pretty intuitive lol. Imagine if we could just say “excuse me you need to leave.” Imagine if security was a real thing.

Ahaha oh no this is a mess. Oh, how embarrassing.

This is a very bad comic.

How does this comic keeps getting worse? If you like this comic then you are objectively wrong and I hope you feel bad.

The writing remains so, so bad and the art made it look like everybody was giving everybody else fuck-me eyes. Distressing.

No.

Great Scott! This is such a bad comic still!

Someone please put this comic out of its misery I swear to god.

Bad.

Bad. So bad. A disjointed mess. I hate this comic.

I really just spent this whole thing in a daze after the very clear implication that Jimmy/Perry is a thing and Jimmy calls him “Chief” in bed. I’m glad I was dazed because this comic is and will always be a nightmare. RIP you trash fire the best thing I can wish for you is that you are forgotten.

Honestly just... the amount of talking was so refreshing. You know the sense of relief you feel when you stop being in pain? That’s this comic.

A solid read but I really just hate time travel so much.

Interesting!

Why did Superman move his super secret fortress to one of the busiest shipping areas in the world?

This was not very well-written and I'm not interested in it or what happens. I don't think characters were handled well, nor the plot.

I think this had some ideas that could have really worked, but on the whole I don’t care for the execution and I certainly don’t care about the plot. Wow another massively powerful evil guy who is just too powerful to punch how exciting. Extra .5 because Superboy ships Batman/Superman.

I just do not care about this.

I hate Rogol Zaar and I think that aging Jon up, or having him travel through time, or whatever, was stupid.

What is the point of any of this? I have never liked Jor-El being back and I like all of this even less. Lois is suddenly a garbage parent, Jon is suddenly a garbage teen, and this comic is unsurprisingly garbage.

This is just so aimless and I really do not like anything about it, it’s a waste of my time and a waste of the characters. Love that we’re going to be wasting the Crime Syndicate now too.

Nope. No thanks. No.

I think my favourite thing about immensely traumatic multi-year torture sessions with a man who looks exactly like your father but psychotic is how they absolutely do not impact you in any way mentally.

This is all just so bad.

I don’t think I’m supposed to agree with the villains that the heroes are annoying, buuuuut...

Why are these comics so hell-bent on ruining a perfectly good backstory?

How long do you think they rehearsed that team speech?

Oh wow how sad that Jor-El is dead I’m weeping. I’m so glad we brought him back, so worth it you guys.

Get you a man who looks at you the way Damian Wayne looks at Jonathan Kent.

Uh wow, this was shit.

Everybody you have ever met is going to be asking you to help move their shit when they’re moving and you won’t be able to say no because you’re Superman and you don’t want anybody to call you a dick, you fool, you absolute chump. Also lol @ him delivering a speech while hovering like fifteen feet in the air, away from every single microphone. Who is going to hear you, Superman. They are normal people.

It’s kind of weird to me to consider that for a lot of his history there has been this sort of understanding that Superman is the mask he puts on and Clark Kent is who he really is, but now it’s just kinda like “nope he’s god king superman forever now and everybody is super happy about it. That Clark Kent disguise was so good haha but he’d never stoop to being a human now, that's gross.” Also how intensely patronizing that Superman is like “oh sorry space races, this bad guy would never have attempted this if I were here. You’re all too useless to scare him lol.”

“I think we can all agree that we love Superman being our god king, basically single-handedly responsible for keeping all of us alive. But um... how dare he say yes to being part of a peacekeeping organization on our behalf? Who does he think he is, some sort of god king?!”

This is a really stupid storyline and I just hate it so much.

Yeah I can definitely see the UN voting to make some guy the king of Earth, that feels legit.

Could someone maybe sit Bendis down and explain the concept of a conversation to him? He seems to think that it’s just two or more people speaking in proximity to each other, with at MOST tangential relationships between their utterances. Why is this Dr Fate who he has never met suddenly giving Superman therapy? Why is absolutely nobody in character? Why is the plot such a mess already? Also art looked bad.

Bad. I don’t even need to tell you that. You know it’s bad.

Everybody says so much, and yet... nothing.

So much talking. And for what? For Superman? Ugh.

How is it that Superman was facing a dude who could/would not communicate him, and still this issue had so much text?

Infuriating to read.

I’m just... I’m so grateful this isn’t by Bendis. I think I’m tearing up, my god.

Perfectly fine.

Okay! Didn't read the backup.

I don’t really like characters like Vi, and I also don’t care about relationship problems. Also I don’t know who this villain is, but he is very snazzy.

Real bored by this, not at all interested in anybody’s relationships.

More watery people will water punch people underwater, how exciting.

Fascinating.

This was okay but I think I just don’t like this guy’s writing style, though he was a little more bearable than usual.

I was falling asleep while reading it, but whether that is an indictment of the comic or myself we may never know.

I really didn’t enjoy this. I barely followed it. I don’t care about any of these people.

Man, this is just whatever.

Um if you could read his mind why didn’t you just bring him to a sun, he has limitless healing abilities.

The Great War is what they called World War I.

... does Tom King not know what a contradiction is?

I was really hoping this was the last issue.

“Will you miss Superman Up in the Sky?” “No sir, I will not.”

I am honestly so bored by how easily immortality is tossed around in the DC universe. I know that isn't this comic's fault per se, but there are so many "oh wow actually I am the most ancient of all the immortals" and real talk it is boring to me. Great now Vandal Savage's origin is also like five randos' origins, good, how unique and exciting, thanks guys.

Is this over yet?

I'm really not invested in this team, I don't know who most of these people are.

I don't care about any of these idiots or how bad they are at being heroes. I don't find their incompetence interesting or endearing in any way.

G r o s s.

Okay I continue to have issues with this comic and I’m not going to bore you with them, suffice it to say that I do not understand why people create OP characters if they don’t know how to write them.

This was all kinda bland for me, though much better than before, and I guess I appreciate that they’re trying to flesh out the characters, but I already don’t like them, so...

These characters are largely not interesting to me, and this prison setup is so unbelievable that the more they show it to me the more annoyed I get.

These characters and their relationships really do not work to me. I am going to continue calling out how gross Damian and Djinn’s relationship is for as long as they continue to pretend that this is okay.

I feel like if you have an omnipotent genie on your side it might actually be very easy to beat Mr. One-Eye McGunsAndSwords, but what do I know, I’m not a child predator.

My favourite thing about this comic is how they keep doubling down on the sex predating.

I don’t care.

I didn’t know that Lobo calling someone “sugar daddy” was what my life was missing, but here we are.

I guess mind rape is preferable to statutory rape... but like, "oh no, locking people up is wrong. But literally invading and altering their minds, forcing them to become unwilling extensions of our will, trapping them within their own bodies from which they cannot escape, through which they can never even voice their objections... lol that's an amazing idea I love that for us"

These people are all so awful to themselves and others. Why am I supposed to care about them or their incredibly awful team again?

Oh no, the immortal child predator is trapped in a ring, I’m so sad.

Someone should tell The Other that the cat got at his costume.

oh god oh no it’s clones.

Literally how hard is it to say “yo my dude for sure I will take up your mantle after you die, love doing murders and shit” and then just not do that?! It’s not that hard! It’s actually really easy! It’s called lying, y’all should maybe look it up sometime?!

Literally when has this team ever had a good plan or done something right? I'm pretty sure the answer is never. I hope that they do die. And I hope that they stay that way.

A pointless waste of my time!

I don’t really care for this comic. Neat that they have Cotard’s delusion in there though.

This comic is a little bit of a mess. Why is Cain acting so out of character? Leave my angry child alone.

I honestly just don’t find this all that interesting, I don’t care about any of the characters.

Well, the art was nice.

Why did they boringly introduce us to the three characters we already know?

I only read the story with Constantine in it and it was preeeeetty sloppy.

The idea is cool but I’m not crazy about the execution.

Oh no I’m so bored.

How is the art so bad all the time?! And the dialogue, my god.

Art is still bad. Plot is… I mean, it’s certainly happening, Apoth bless.

Oh my god, someone please end this comic or my life, either would be a kindness.

Thank god we are free.

This was subpar and trying way too hard tbh, what's up with Weasel the red piller?

I'm still not really into it, but it was maybe a little better this time.

I'm not really very interested in this, but it's getting better?

I'm sorry, I can't get over how dumb his sidekick's outfit is.

Eh, this wasn't really anything special.

Ahahahahahaha. Ironic 10/10.

I didn’t like this much at all, it was really boring to me, sorry.

There were no brain walls, so there is nothing for me here.

Whatever.

This was just fine. Real glad to not have to see the stupid romance subplot again, but nothing exactly grabbed me.

Whaaaaaaat, the Scarecrow with a huge ponytail who is wearing a rope necklace is a woman? World's greatest detective.

Blah blah blah future stories.

I still don’t care about future stories.

Future stories, and the ending was stupid, I cannot get over how much I cannot stand the romance that’s happening.

I like how just doing the same idea over again is apparently sufficient.

Good so now I will know forever that the Joker somehow gets to the future and dies of a heart attack great I love future stories so much.

“The best thing about these nefarious elements who wanted to do crimes against Bruce Wayne’s wishes is that they let him have full access to their secret sites even after he parted ways with their company! So sneaky.”

Bored.

Boooooored.

These people are terminally stupid.

I hate this story arc.

Oh my god why is this story arc going to continue, how is this writer still getting work?

The art was good.

This comic is fine but I don’t know how invested I really am in Nightwing at the moment. I want to see what happens with Nightcop, because I choose to live in a world where this is not going to go exactly like it will probably go.

This comic was bland af and I am already crazy bored by this plot line.

We are Nightwing, bum ba dum bum bum bum bum.

I’m not really sure why I’m supposed to care about this guy who is so adamant that he’s not the guy I care about. Okay good, go be a miserable asshole by yourself and leave me alone, you dick.

The more I read this the less I like it.

Oh no that one character got shot or whatever.

"Oh wow I hate being a superhero so much how dumb and lame guess the only thing to do is sign up to be a superhero that’s so consistent of me."

God this comic is annoying. The characters are annoying. The plot is annoying. If you hate Nightwing so much just kill him and put us all out of our misery.

I like how Sapienza must have been like just down the hall to be able to get to the hospital room that fast. Also what is the point of this arc. I hate it.

When will this eeeeend?

“After being shot in the head and losing all my memories I have decided to not be Nightwing. But that doesn’t mean I can’t be Nightwing.” Shut up, I hate you and hope you die.

Please shut up, I genuinely loathe you.

I hope this was all his dying dream after being shot in the head. I would honestly rather he die than see him like this.

Oh wow wait did Nightwing lose his memory? Forget about his life as Nightwing? No longer feel connected to his old family? Doesn’t know who he WAS, only knows who he IS? Guys I wish someone had said something, I had no idea.

He protecc, he attacc, but most importantly he can’t get he memory bacc.

Oh no not Ric, he was such a lovable and relatable character! Also, like… Bruce Wayne isn’t dead? Guys why wouldn’t you have him “kill” literally anyone else this is going to backfire so hard and we can all see it.

Real talk, does anybody care about any of this? I sure don’t.

Still extremely don’t care.

Bad pacing bad plot bad comic.

I’m glad Joker’s having a nice time.

Yes, if there’s one thing we needed it was more of that train wreck “I don’t know who I am because my memories have been meddled with” plotline, thank you so much Nightwing.

Honestly, this went by quickly, which I appreciate. But wow Barb how hard was it to figure out that Joker used that crystal on Nightwing? Also Punchline still sucks.

This is just still so shit and I hate the concept. It’s barely even about Nightwing. But then, it hasn’t been about him in a long time.

At least that stupid arc is fiiiiinally over.

Oh no so sad that he can’t be with Bea what a tragedy. I was soooo deeply invested.

I know that simple feel-good stories like this are good because it’s nice to have simple, happy resolutions, but it all rings so hollow for me. Right, this is all so easy and uncomplicated. Living in capitalism isn’t so bad, actually, because in the end the billionaire class will have your back.

Oh no... I... liked this? A good Nightwing comic? In THIS economy??

Obviously I have minor qualms with the whole “the billionaires will save us” idea but on the whole I’m giving this one a thumbs up.

What a fun read, I’m so grateful that Tom Taylor is capable of writing amusing dialogue that doesn’t make me want to stab my eyes out, unlike some writers I could name.

Uh, fiiiiiiine?

This title is kind of meh for me tbh. What was going on with Rogue's hair? Why couldn't Jake Gyllenhaal just teleport into the car? Important questions.

This wasn't particularly well written and I didn't care about it.

This is just so whatever, and then what, this woman gets turned to Leviathan in a hot second? Okay, man.

This was not an enjoyable read. It’s actually kind of poorly written. How is the lost tribe of Amazons completely hidden from the world and yet fully integrated into Brazil? Like they’re all speaking Portuguese? They have bike lanes and stop signs? They wear glasses and modern clothing? Nobody noticed a part of the coastline that they just couldn’t enter or see??

I mean, it wasn’t badly written. It also wasn’t interestingly written.

Well, I like spy stuff...

Thank you for wasting my time on a pointless multi-page fight.

Thank you for explaining nothing and just making me remember better comics that I liked more. I love my boy, but maybe he should have stayed dead.

This is dragging a lot. It’s nice to see Question in action though, she cool.

Uh yeah RIP… Saaaam? I wanna say Sam. We hardly knew ye. Because you weren’t in this series at all.

Wow they’re both such good detectives, such keen investigative insight. Obviously a woman could never be under suspicion, who would even think that? I mean, come on, she was HOT! No further questions am I right fellas.

Garbage tbh. At least there’s a sort of plot now, we all want to find the skeleton lady don’t we? We’re only 8 issues in, after all. That’s how many issues it takes to develop a plot, right???

I just don’t really like Lois Lane. And the rest of this is muddied by the art. Bleh.

Oh my god this comic is almost over, please stop introducing crazy new cosmic shit.

This continues to be bad. So much happened and most of it feels senseless.

This was a shit end to a bad miniseries. Very frustrating to read. Art was annoying.

Thank you for this tour, I now feel I am qualified to decide if ESU is right for me.

I won’t be sad when this is over.

God this is so boring.

Oh, okay then.

Guess it’s a good thing that Squirrel Girl also cannot be defeated by a lack of oxygen.

I’m really not a fan of this style of writing. It’s annoying to read.

This is all Psycamorean’s fault.

I find the structure of this comic very annoying.

I just don't like this writing!

Welp! I won't miss this!

This was fine but I found the Junior Legion a little lame and occasionally everything was a little distractingly try-hard.

Meh, alright.

I'm not too invested. Space Cabbie came right out of nowhere, but he's cool.

I’m not feeling this arc, the pacing is way off and everything is all over the place and I’m just not invested.

Holy rushed story arc, captain!

This is all so blah and it feels really aimless at this point, I don’t care about any of this anymore.

I still like the characters for the most part, but this arc never really had my interest and it’s still not selling itself to me. The villains are so boring and unoriginal.

What is the poiiiiiint?

I hope we’re steering this giant space train in the direction of the plot.

Okay so firstly I think it’s pretty clear that Damian and Jon end up married and have some grandkids and tbh that’s very pure and good to me. On the other hand, I cannot get over how shitty these super villain names are. Weather Wizkid, Kidzarro, these are infinitely better than what we got and it took me like ten seconds and I don’t get paid for this. It’s also really messed up that it’s apparently cool to mind control sentient beings, glad that Jonah liked having all his free will stripped away?

When will this boring story end?

Thanks I don’t care.

Boring character so far.

Whatever.

Whatever.

Gave it a try, not going to continue with it.

Well, some of these were kind of okay.

This was weirdly confusing, like, I feel like I don’t understand why these people were murdered and at the same time I do not care.

This guy’s anxiety seems to be mostly just having a really whiny inner monologue. I don’t really like him and I don’t see why I should.

This was not an enjoyable experience.

I agree that it's pretentious and honestly the first issue didn't make me care to keep reading.

Some of these were okay but the ones that were not were really annoying.

Oh wow the bad guy turned out to be the bad guy what a twist.

Thank you for destroying time travel, you idiots.

When will any Wally West from any timeline develop some chill?

I... really didn't like this. Why did he need to call all the Flashes together to their fancy meeting hall to ask one simple question? I still don't really care for the many forces idea. Why are they writing Trickster like this? Trickster isn't like this. Leave Trickster alone, you dicks.

I don’t really like what this comic is doing to these characters. How does Flash know that if baby Mick dies in the dream he dies in real life?

I hope this means they’re finally leaving the Rogues alone, because jesus christ these poor innocent babies have suffered enough.

I haven’t cared for this comic in a long time and I still don’t.

This is still not interesting to me.

The new character is kind of interesting, but why does everybody speak such flawless English in this band of poor fugitives in a non-English speaking country? Also I still don’t like anything about this force quest plot.

I smiled at Iris pretending to be a supervillain, the deep cut Flash villains, and literally nothing else throughout this whole comic.

Basically every line of dialogue is just people expositing at each other, the plot is tedious, and I don’t care about a single character here.

I’m still really not convinced by the idea of the forces. And there’s just so much going on and yet none of it really lands, I’m mostly just hoping for it to end.

Well, at least it was a quick read. I got through it in a... flash.

The resolution was basically nothing and the emotional stakes are lame.

“Hey I have a great idea for an issue. Let’s take the original Trickster, yeah, and give him pretty much the same backstory as he had before, but change it juuuuuuust slightly so he kinda sucks? Make him dumber, yeah, that’s perfect. And definitely make it so he sucks so much that literally everybody has completely forgotten about him and never mentions him after he’s been gone for like five years tops. Yeah. That’s how you know a dude is badass. Expert retcon.”

The art is bad and I’m not interested in this story.

This is just written so poorly.

Did not care for this.

Great so... same origin as always, then? Thanks for letting me know.

There are two things I hate in this world: time travel stories and future stories. This is both of those things, plus a whiny protagonist who won’t shut up.

Barry Allen is super dumb. And so is literally every other person in this comic. I hate this.

I don’t caaaaare.

I don’t really get the stakes here. Like, oh no, I hope that Flash, in his first year of operation doesn’t lose and die? You know, the Flash who has been a hero for years and is very established at heroing? Dang I hope he won’t die you guys.

I demand more Rogues.

This issue was actually probably the best one in a long time. The art was way better, that’s for sure. I want more Rogues and less Forces so tbh I’m delighted that cloak man got shanked.

Nogues.

Legit I am happy at the idea of these people dying. So um... good work creating likeable characters I guess.

Oh my god the new Rogue costumes look so stupid oh no.

“The Rogues?! They look...” “Stupider? Yeah.”

I wish the Black Flash would come for me.

I wish this was better. I love the Rogues. But I love their characters, not, this random twist-em-into-whatever-to-suit-the-story shit.

Remember the days when the Rogues were awesome and fought on the side of the heroes against existential threats because they weren’t bad guys, they were just guys who did bad things? I ‘member.

Oh my god somebody end this. How many more times are we going to learn about the speed force and how to control it?!

“I love fire… but he loves only himself” Yes thank you Heatwave your thesis statement was both important and necessary.

That’s not how prison works but okay, whatever.

Oh yeah Arkham Asylum is for sure the best place to house a flight risk criminal, since, you know, it’s so renowned for being secure. Brilliance in action here folks.

This character’s origin story is trite and unbelievable.

Man that first story really wanted to be Spectacular Spider-Man 310. The rest of it... was okay. Some better than others.

Okay, so, I’m reading Paradox being all “What’s good about you? Why does anybody care about you? Because you died. That’s the only reason. And then you came back and all you do 24/7 is suck and ruin the timestream with your selfishness. You should have stayed dead, Barry” and I’m kinda sitting here like “... yeah. YEAH.”

Well, this was mercifully short... probably because basically nothing happened.

This is just so boring. Nothing new or exciting.

The level of care shown by swapping Barry and Eobard’s lines twice on the same page really encapsulates my feelings about this comic.

What is the point of any of this?

August Heart. Cop. Friend. Hero. Killed a bunch of people but he seemed real sorry for it so lol I guess that’s fine. The rest of this issue was boring but whatever. I don’t love the idea of the Rogues being dragged into this again, but okay.

It’s just... not that interesting? Maybe if Barry was a more interesting person I would care more. Art’s nice though.

The best part of this was when Captain Cold shit-talked time travel.

I did deeply enjoy Thawne berating a child, so +0.5 for that.

There’s just so much to not like about this! The Trickster randomly doing a betray. The Tornado Twins suddenly just not being evil because of looooove and vanishing. Inertia just... sucking and then running away? Could we not think of a satisfactory way to deal with any of these characters? Why not just leave them out? Also lol @ Double Down being there what a fuckin nerd.

It is... fine.

Thank you for being over.

The idea of somebody stealing his ring enchanted me, but it was spoiled by the cover and the execution. I really wanted to enjoy this, I think it could have been fun! And yet!

I spent a lot of time thinking about that bullet rain thing. I don’t think that bullet rain could kill you and yes, I will die on this hill. Possibly of bullet rain.

This is certainly more interesting than it has been. But the writing feels so bleh and everything feels weirdly inconsequential.

Oh okay, thank you for quickly and wordily wrapping up that problem, Flash.

Only Barry Allen can make the imminent end of the world kinda boring.

Barry please he killed ten people.

I like Gold Beetle in principle but her River Song vibes are so strong and so annoying.

Honestly, not bad. The dialogue got a little grating but I wasn’t annoyed to be reading this.

Bleh, no thanks. Hasn’t the legacy of Seven Soldiers suffered enough?

I find this character really thoroughly unlikeable but like not in a fun or intriguing way, and I’d be happy if he died. I am therefore delighted that the intro announced he’s already dead.

Why does every line out of Leviathan’s mouth feel like his MLM pitch?

There was actually a glimmer of promise in there with the opening story, and the Constantine story had some neat ideas, which got my hopes up, but on the whole it was very mixed.

This wasn't as bad as i feared but it's still pretty generic and has all the Bendis hallmarks you would expect.

This tried very hard. There were some good moments.

So much flashback. And for what?

I’m not a fan of this style of writing, and the art wasn’t anything special.

The Life of Captain Marvel: I don’t really know or care about these characters so I’m not offended like YourGreenMuse is, but I also don’t really care about alien stuff too much, sorry for being a space racist.

I mean, like, okay, cool, whatevs.

What fresh hell is this?

This was a bit of a mess, which is disappointing because I usually like this one.

There are two wolves inside you. They are both bored by this comic.

Not very fun or special.

Just so boring.

I do not enjoy this style.

Eh I liked some of the art?

Wow is that what the kids are calling dialogue these days? RIP.

Deeply unenjoyable.

Honestly, this wasn’t terrible, but I’m excited for it to let me down.

Poor Elongated Man gets no love.

Wow, that’s a lot of sucking Red Hood’s dick we just did there. My favourite thing about this comic is that Question did not involve himself in this embarrassment.

I don’t think I’ve ever felt less stakes in the middle of a massive spy operation.

Jesus I’m so bored. Why are we doing this?

An anti-climax to an anti-story. Why did this happen?

The greatest mystery of the DCU is why this comic needed to be made.

This held my interest more than the first issue, but that is possibly because of the brief moments of seeing the Rogues, like omg was that Double Down in there for a second? Fabulous.

The bigger mystery is: why should I care?

I honestly would have enjoyed this so much more if it had turned out that Naomi was literally some rando human kid that they adopted. Also... have they never heard of infertility treatments? It’s not... it’s not impossible, you guys.

Finding new frontiers in exposition is truly the most noble pursuit.

Wow what an anticlimax. What even was this? Terrible, that’s what.

This was pretty bland, but shout out to Camden Town, I miss you.

I didn’t enjoy reading this at all.

Nothing special. Kinda rushed, kinda bland.

This is so boring and the characters are not interesting enough to get me over the bland writing.

I have no idea what I think of this comic. I kept being on the verge of being really into it, and then it got crazy preachy, and then it was back to being good again, and then out of nowhere the preaching intensified again? I'll read it, cautiously.

This comic continues to confound me.

I can’t even deal with how obnoxious and unsubtly written this comic has become. “It’s so racist of you to assume aliens helped the ancient people found their civilizations. Obviously it was gods who did that, you filthy nazi” Give me a break.

This was less grating than previous issues, but I cannot get over the fact that Julietta was born in America. And that she found out she was undocumented like four years ago. Girl, have you even tried to become documented? Come on now. This is just victimizing yourself at this point. I don’t even live in your country and I know you have jus soli.

I think this was a cool idea and it maybe could have been a bit better but I didn’t hate it.

Sorry, this wasn’t good.

I’m not really invested in this, and I don’t think Darkseid is very in character at this point.

I still feel like I haven’t really been given any stakes or anything to care about yet.

This has been going on forever and it’s so tiring and like what is up with this garbage god test? These people deserve to be duped. Also Azrael feels crazy out of character to me, though I admit that I’m not as familiar with him as I could be.

Well this plot twist is boring and lame. The god thing is also boring and lame. I am bored and this is lame.

I just don’t really care about this. The characters are boring and so is the plot.

I checked how many pages were left when I was literally three pages in.

I love how they’re pretending like they have Darkseid locked up tight when his eyes are literally right there and they shoot actual death beams?!

Sooooo booooored.

I have never felt less stakes in my whole life.

It got seven pages in and there was a title page and genuinely there was this hopeful moment where I was like “oh my god, is that the end? Did I make it to the end?” Nope. Page seven.

I’m just happy that something happened.

Back to boredom for the most part.

Almost a little too set up for me, but perfectly fine.

Good enough.

A solid finale with even some cute moments.

Oof. Didn’t enjoy this. The writing was very rough.

Oof I’m not loving this writing.

"Oh, geezum crow, Carol."

Honestly not as annoying as I was anticipating it would be.

Whyyy are you so boring?

This is not very well written. I spent most of it picturing Steve Buscemi going “how do you do fellow kids.”

Oh uh okay? Guess that’s over then.

I'm not sure why I'm reading this.

I'm not sure why I'm reading this.

I really don't know why I'm reading this.

long, drawn-out sigh.

I mean, there were some moments in the first story that were okay...

The first one was... fine?

Oh wow yeah this art sure is. huh. it sure is.

You’d think by now they’d have at least attempted anti-facehugger masks, huh?

I don’t care all that much at this point. Art’s bad, but you don’t need me to tell you that.

I think there were a lot of good ideas here, but a lot of them didn’t quiiiite land for me, but still, I applaud the ideas.

Felt a little desperate at times but not as bad as it could have been for sure.

Not a big fan of this kind of writing. Some of the art was nice but not enough to make me enjoy reading it.

Oof this dialogue.

The dialogue is so bad.

I don't really enjoy reading this ):

This was okay, it was not as spoopy as I hoped it would be.

S a n d w i s h e s. But real talk, like one and a half of these stories was good.

This is pretty boring and the art is unattractive.

This is such bland been-there-seen-that horror. I don’t see a single thing here that I haven’t seen in a hundred other horror stories. The main character is basically an empty void into which charisma is sucked and suffocated under the weight of cliché.

This was really not very strong at all. Both stories weren’t told particularly well, though the second had a few good moments of atmosphere.

Meh.

I mean... okay. I don’t really care about Excalibur and I’m mad that I had to call on my knowledge of it for this. And also Dark Ages is like whatever. I like Tom Taylor so maybe I’ll like it?

I don’t really care about any of these people yet, I guess we’ll see.

I’m sorry but how exactly were we all fooled for even one second by this twelve-year-old e-boy who kind of vaguely looks like Reed Richards?

I just don’t really know any of these characters and I also don’t particularly care?

I find this whole thing quite boring.

This didn’t get me nearly as much as I was expecting it to, dunno why.

The writing here was... weirdly weak. And I hated the art.

Meh.

This wasn’t as exciting as the cover made me hope.

This was pretty meh for me.

I am here only for robot revolution.

Legit the only thing I care about is robot revolution and having to see Arno Stark is a real drag.

Ugh I dunno this is just a drag to me! Some moments were okay.
