“Heroes in Crisis” Limited Series by Tom King & Clay Mann to Start in September

[Supermutant2099]

Oh I’m not talking fun in reading it, I’ve seen parts of it, I’m talking the fun of reactions to what happens

I figured that but there is very little fun even in that. I will say this its nice to have social media to rant.
I got to ask that has bothering me since soon after this book was announced. Why does it need to even be? Just another book to kill of heroes. Why introduce interesting idea for super heroes but ruin it before it even gets really introduce. I'm just trying to figure mentality and thinking goes into it. That done right with maybe characters went through trauma and have ptsd might be interesting.

General consensus afaik is King wanted to do a book about mental health but Didio turned it into Identity Crisis 2.0 so he could sell more books with shitty shock events such as "One of these fan favourites will die"

Identity Crisis the book that marked what I like to call dc's dark period. Where almost every year book its a event book where fan favorite dies. I know marvel does it too and I have complained a lot about them doing it too. Like I said mental health story could have been interesting done right. Sad that has become this. Its not shocking that much. Cliche to death. A lot older fans are just waiting to shoe to drop or if rumors are true. What is the point to care anymore anyway most likely death isn't going to stick for a long time.

The difference is here you got higher ups who have shown dislike in some form for the individuals that are rumor or do get killed.

And for years we have seen ONE FRANCHISE get ruined by this death march or bad writing. THAT is what is infuriating people. Why is it folks linked to Titans?

We don't get that feeling at Marvel (despite what some X-Men or Inhuman fans will say). Now it might take awhile for them to comeback-Hi Jean Grey-Summers.

I use to think the hate for titans wasn't real but become more and more obvious especially considering what recently happen to nightwing

I thought somebody (don't remember who / where) said it was introduced at some point in King's regular Batman series?

(Since I try not to buy/read King's Batman, I can neither confirm nor deny that.)

It was teased in both his batman run and williamson's flash run. Think references may have also been said in other books.

Why would we need to understand the place when you can just destroy it immediately?

I don't read king's batman but I know it was teased as to where Wally was being sent to in Flash. Outside of the mentions not really been shown before to my knowledge.

In general I think it was a mistake to not introduce us to Sanctuary before this event. Yeah they name-dropped it a few times but I don't really see the necessity in keeping the facility itself a secret to the readers until this event. Indeed I think it would only benefit the story, seeing the place beforehand and how it functions. Seeing how it helps people. It could only help get people invested in regards to then seeing what atrocities happen there later.

If the spoilers I've been reading are true then it won't matter at all anyway.

Pity Dan Didio when and spoiled what could have been an intriguing story and turned it into just another "I personally don't like that character and possess no spirit of tolerance-- kill'em."

It would have helped as the victims would have gotten SOME development and maybe saved some of them if the reaction was good enough.

It would have helped start up the talk about mental health and getting helped. Heck maybe it would have lead to a venture of DC working with mental help programs using comics.

Instead of this mess of get rid of who I don't like to keep Batman and friends young and give Wallace back the Wally name.

It waste of interesting concept. You want say they will reopen would any hero return their after what happen. You won't feel secure. Place like you want to feel secure. Its been taken away.
Nothing personal I will never call New 52 Kid Flash (second one technically) Wally. If he was named anything else I give him a shot.

It's really just "this place exists and if you are troubled go there". Which you learn from the marketing.
