    Default DC wanted Metal to be called Dark Crisis

    I knew it, I just knew it that the term "Crisis" would pop up somewhere in Scott Snyder's Metal event for DC: https://www.bleedingcool.com/2017/08...l-dark-crisis/

    I have to admit, that's quite hilarious.

    What's DC obsession with Crisis.

    One of these days we're going to get a legit Crisis event again. It's only a matter of time .

    Though I guess "Dark Crisis" would've made a lot of sense in some ways.

    I guess this why earlier this year , Snyder kept saying this is not a crisis.��
    And then there were none...

    After FINAL CRISIS, DC committed to retiring the CRISIS title. A decade later, it's sticking to that commitment, in spite of dire temptation to do otherwise. Works for me.

    They made the final crisis so no more crisis is understandable

    Guess they need to advertise Snyder as the next Morrison/Johns.

    Dark Crisis? LOL. Maybe we can still get Dark Wars, Dark Invasion, and Dark Flashpoint someday.

    Please don't insinuate that Johns is in Morrison's league. I don't care for either overall, but I sure as Hell know that on a technical level, there's no comparison.

    I think they're too different as writers to even really compare.

    I'd say they're only similar in how they mine widespread continuity and are viewed as architects of whatever franchise they take over.

    Glad it wasn't. If Crisis events aren't dead, at the very least they can keep the title at bay and reserved for universe-centric events, not character-centric ones.

    Also apologies to Snyder, I jumped the gun and thought it was him that wanted this to be a legit Crisis event. Directed my disapproval at the entirely wrong person initially. My reading comprehension sucks this week, I'm jumping the gun all over the place.

    I feel like all the past crisis events since COIE have been like the boy who cried wolf, we will get that next epic Crisis one day.

    When will financial crisis happen?

    I'm personally looking forward to mid-life crisis.

    Just because it's called FINAL Crisis doesn't mean that the name Crisis is fully retired as it was also stated in the various interviews.
