I remember reading an interview with Morrison when this was coming out where they said that they expected/wanted to see all future DC Comics after FC to be just as "dense"-ly packed in information and "widescreen" in adventure as they said FC was, and I'm ecstatic with joy that that prediction utterly failed to come to pass. Not only did I refused to buy the last few issues of this shit, but this is what convinced me that Morrison took too many drugs in their junkie days and is living in their own bespoke reality parallel to our own.
This book permanently poisoned me against Grant Morrison.
