Also, given the depiction of mental health, a good deal is earned. This isn't people complaining about a female character being stronger than a male character, it's a poor attempt to address mental health issues with little thought applied.
It's really not. Also if you're seriously insinuating that we take a comic book's depiction of "mental health" as some sort of serious commentary on the real world, then that's far more alarming than people hating a book for the wrong reasons.
Even if it’s attempting to do so, there’s literally zero reason to accept it as such.
Don’t get me wrong. The same thing goes for film and tv.
Maybe if it’s a documentary or something, but otherwise.
It's marketed like that and King even said that the other medias has a wrong depiction of PTSD.

Heroes in Crisis has yet to reveal the full extent of how it’s addressing the delicate subject of PTSD, but King notes how pop culture media “gets wrong” with trauma and anxiety. “It’s hard to describe narratively,” he admits, explaining that it’s never “1:1.” A traumatic episode with a helicopter won’t just give any person acrophobia.
“It’s like, you had this experience and it got to that part of your brain you can’t reach,” explains King. “You can’t get to it consciously. It’s almost below your conscious. You’ve had an experience in your life, it latched onto you, it latched onto your parents, onto your childhood. It got all stored somewhere you can’t get at, and the only way to get at that place is to just start rambling. Start talking. Bring it out. That’s what Heroes in Crisis is about.”

As a person who defends Cry for Justice to this day, I have to disagree with you. Wally being wildly mischaracterized is just one aspect of the dumpster fire that’s HiC. I won’t derail the thread to break down all the ways it’s terrible, but I also won’t fault anyone else who enjoyed it as well.
I dunno... aside from the whole "Amazons killing children" thing (which absolutely should NOT be discounted), my memories of Amazons Attack are more along the lines of "dumb and incoherent" rather than "blatantly illogical character-destroying murderfest." I mean, was there any "permanent" damage inflicted by AA that wasn't almost immediately ignored?
