I laugh about many things.
Just not Dan and the Gang's increasingly steep slope of incompetency.

Agreed. The Aquaman, Wonder Woman & Batman mini's may have outshined the core mini, but Flashpoint itself was actually pretty good.

No. It really wasn't.

I could never get past the 'fun' with an electric chair in the original series.

Whoever said the Draco, I'd like to point out, that while it was terrible it's also be ignored 100% since it happened, even by its own writer.

If I could erase one it'd be OMD .

Marvel: Peter and M.J.'s marriage being wiped out is number one with a bullet.

D.C.: Flashpoint. In fact I'm ready for a Crisis in hopes we can erase this from existence.

Which is why Identity Crisis is the true answer. DC wasn't the same after the story and Didio's tendrils slithered over all their stuff. We be getting rid of some good yes, but the bad just completely overtakes the good. Name one thing the Didio era gave us and I'll a hundred negative ones. Didio and the people beneath him ruined DC so much they had to reboot. Thus the problem with the new 52. Same and even worse people are running this. How is this a good thing?

This is new to me. Not that I blame him, of course...

This is why it truly stumps me at how DiDio is still there. I realize that story quality is subjective and the guy isn't getting job reviews based on internet outrage, but for the love of God, it truly amazes me that his superiors evaluated DC Comics under his watch and don't just walk away saying "WHAT THE FUCK?"

It amazes me. It truly amazes me that of all the things that DC Comics could do or has done, that Dan DiDio is still there for all of it. It truly amazes me.

All Sean McKeever, Greg Rucka, Ed Brubaker, Mark Waid, and Chuck Dixon's faults he tells them. Or.. for keeping his job he give best sucky sucky. He keep his job cause of that. No.. the real truth? Dan Didio is Lex Luthor. I keep telling you all the mustache is a disguise. Batman, Wonder Woman, and of course Superman have been slighted. Who gets the last best story in Superman? Lex Luthor. Coicedence? I think not!
