    No need for apologies - yes, that story has been around forever, so that's on me.

    I collect everything Tom King in trade paperback ... I think the only stuff of his I didn't connect with was his Batman stuff. Beyond that he can do no wrong.

    Everything about Heroes in Crisis was wrong. EVERYTHING. On every level.

    The art was nice.
    Keep in mind that you have about as much chance of changing my mind as I do of changing yours.

    Strange Adventures was a random assassination of an older DC character because King has to dark deconstructions of classic heroes. And much like Orion form Miracleman, I imagine it's going to be affecting Adam going forward.

    Personally didn't have a problem with Wally coming out of the speed force unhinged and his powers wacked.

    The eventual follow up stories of his redemption were really enjoyable too.

    Felt like a really odd direction to take with Wally, especially after what editorial had already put him through.

    But I guess we finally got Jeremy Adams' run so...

    I'm not saying it's a perfect story or anywhere near kings best.

    I just don't have a raging hard on of hate for it like a certain group of people have.

    Ultimately the fall was met with a fun redemption take that was important to dc and it made hic more then palatable for me.

    But I definitely understand why so may be upset by it.

    Eh. . . . What happened to Adam at the end of that saga?

    Dead and disgraced, IIRC.

    I think people give King far too much credit on his ideas and give little thought to his execution

    So now Fire will be the new "femme fatale" and naturally a "flaming" one to boot. Does that mean he'll have a relationship with her too. Either way, you can't say ol' Chance won't go out in style, a dying man bangs two super-powered best friends and kills a Green Lantern isn't the worst way to kick the bucket.

    Everything I have read of Tom King has been terrible to me. Especially HIC...that being said I have read the first two issues of Human Target on DC Universe App and I really like it so far. And LOVE the art.
    Read The Flash#1 this September!
