That depends on if he gave them a complete script of the entire series or not.
If all he gave was say the first 1st issue-you would still have time to fit in the proper characterizations for everyone.
Otherwise all someone did in editorial was dump folks into roles.
No way on EARTH Superman nor the public would allow this place to stay open after all the deaths.
No way would the SONS of Batman nor his WOMAN be allowed to visit this place after all the deaths. Nor Clark would allow Supergirl or Guardian.
Anyone else notice something? Excluding Batwoman, Batwing, Azrael, Harper Row, Huntress & Duke Thomas-a lot of Bat family members were there.
Interesting the Outsiders MINUS Duke were there. Isn't DUKE having the mental issues right now in the Bat Office?
Hal, Guy, Kyle & Jessica??? Really? Nice to see a collection of potential folks get reduce to cheap cameos.
Where are the scenes of SOMEONE from the hero community showing SOME respect and regard to the victims??
Not guys laughing at the tv in an apartment.
Those folks don't matter??? So the parents of Hotspot & Eddie & Solstice are suppose to just accept their dead kids?
Because if Wally could go back in time couldn't he have gone FURTHER to prevent everything?
To me this smells like King wrote this story and handed it to the editors and they did the rest.
If this is the case King is not to fully blame-MANAGEMENT is.
If this is the new standard of write the story and DUMP whoever you want in it-that EXPLAINS a lot.
I bet you anything this will be completely written out of canon within the next 3 or so years.
ConnEr Kent flies. ConnOr Hawke has a bow. Batman's kid is named DamiAn.
To do spoiler tags, use [ spoil ] at the start of the sentence and [ /spoil ] at the end, without the spaces. You're welcome!
So what, you're saying the story would be better if it was some other hero that slaughtered a dozen capes? The thing is, this whole story was King's brainchild. They handed him permission for certain characters after he approached them with his idea.
In the end, the story was a failure in my eyes. Substituting other heroes for the slaughter instead of Wally and company would not have changed that.
So, I have a couple questions. I think I might've gotten a little confused towards the end:
spoilers:end of spoilers
They for some reason reopened Sanctuary after this incident, right? If so, were this issue's 'confessionals' meant to take place after Sanctuary reopened then?
Honestly this is even worse than Countdown I think. All those stories from Amazons Attack to Countdown to Cry for Justice are peak worst DC stories that are dumb, dark, way too long with nonsensical plot that were bad from the start. Heroes in Crisis had actual potential and that makes it even worse in my eyes, a good story/idea buried is much more disappointing because it had effort, it had really good art but it was also tone deaf, unintentionally mean-spirited, super depressing, and one of the most unenjoyable stories I have had the misfortune to read. There isn't a single person I can get behind or like in this story, everyone is ineffectual and babbles about nonsense.

Two words.
Absolute. Shit.
That is all.
"My name is Wally West. I'm the fastest man alive!"
I'll try being nicer if you try being smarter.
So just out of curiosity as I just couldn’t follow this dumpster fire, was there ever a reason given for why Harley just randomly changed into her classic outfit and stayed in it for the rest of the event for no discernible reason?
