    Default Geoff Johns and Gary Frank Have An Idea for a Doomsday Clock Sequel

    Good Grief - how many years would it take to release that?

    Would you be up for a sequel to DC or would you like some time to let the dust settle on what we just got?

    "That was always the ending, an ending filled with hope for tomorrow. And if Gary and I really dig deep -- we have a kernel of an idea -- but if we really have that developed, we'll tell that story. It's really up to people whether or not they want to see that story and if, like Doomsday Clock, we really have our stories formulated into something that we want to tell," teased Johns. "Because we have ideas, but when do it, I want to make sure we do it right and have the story that really matters to us in a personal way like Doomsday Clock did."

    Moore is furiously doubling his curses as we speak lmao. If they do this they shouldn’t even talk about it until Frank is drawing the last issue and release it all at once.

    As well as this sold (I believe), I don't think people could stomach another major delayed event that the rest of the DCU hardly even acknowledged.

    Hopefully there will be less editorial interference and Frank will be given enough time before release.

    Still, will buy pretty much anything from this team.

    Why do people complain so much about waiting? Really? Wouldn't you rather have a good story and wait a little longer, than a half-assed one with sloppy artwork sooner?
    It kind of reminds me of this experiment where they leave a little kid in a room with a peace of candy, and tell them, that if they don't eat it in the next few minutes they can have two instead. Then see which child will wait for the bigger reward and which one will chose the instant gratification.
    It's sad that people nowadays are so impatient about everything. And have to be satisfied at the very second.
    As far as the delays, they were with good reason. They could have kept the original schedule
    had they cut the page count and had a second artist help Gary Frank with the artwork. John's aslo would have had to rush the script because of all the other projects he was working on. But ultimately they decided to not compromise the story. And I'm glad. Doomsday clock was well worth the wait. The ending was perfect. And I do hope he follows up on it. I don't care how long it takes. It's not like we don't get 100s of new comics every week and have nothing else to read.

    If Marvel comics pulled this stunt-the backlash let alone attacks on employees would be off the chain. Since a certain group screams "professionalism" is needed at BOTH companies.

    How did they MISS this 2 year wait.

    If Johns could not have done it in the time allowed-how about hold up releasing ANYTHING until everyone is ready?

    If you are Firestorm fan this was NOT a good story for you. Especially Jason fans-who got told to F off. Then they WONDER why folks are hesitant to support new characters.

    In the world of business you can NOT sit around for as long as DC did with this. Because you don't know what your competition is going to do.

    What if this had came out on time? Before Hickman's X-Men, Ewing's Hulk, Spiderverse, Carol Danvers actually selling, Bendis's Superman, The assassination of Wally West (Heroes in Crisis) and so on?

    How much money did you lose? Because others bought OTHER books? Meanwhile you got comic book stores like mine having to toss books in the 25 cent sales to move them. Or dollar sales?

    No we don't need them to do another book. Because both of them prove they can't do it as a 12 part series. Maybe an OGN but not a single issue comic book.
