I agree. Look, I love the big three as much as anybody, but it gets a little stale when they're EVERYWHERE all the time. I remember when Blackest Night came out, I really appreciated that we had a big event headlined by Green Lantern, Flash, Mera and the Atom. I thought that was so refreshing.
He’s a perfect modernization of DC! Like I get tired of seeing those outdated 80’s art everywhere for DC while Marvel has more recent art for their characters!
Mora draws the best DCU and is a perfect modernization of the universe! Love how he draws the characters! Maybe it’s just me, but his style just works.
Done with DC. Can't handle the constant whiplash! Time to go on a hiatus!
Hopefully Waid can return some nuance to Waller’s characterisation. I’m relieved Williamson and Taylor are not the ones writing this event.
I’m happy Mora gets to draw the next big event. He deserves it.
Snyder’s run sold well I believe, but Death Metal apparently sold great and that is not a fondly remembered event. The JL doesn’t have a lot of great runs truth be told.
No we were speculating that Snyder’s Ultimate DC might spin out of this, or that Waid was involved in Snyder’s plans but that’s seemingly not the case. Unless Waid uses Waller’s recent Multiverse travels to set it up lol. Honestly Waid was always a weird fit for an Ultimate DC, I could see him sticking with WF and the mainline where he has access to the Silver Age over participating in a project where everything starts from scratch.

Honestly I feel like "fuller" Diana is more an exception than the norm, though I think it's more just...anime proportions, if that makes sense.
That would be nice.
I guess we know why he needed to cut back on World's Finest Titans and Shazam.
I wonder if Task Force 7 is related to the League (Big 7?).
I wonder how many of these Dan Mora is drawing? He left two titles for this event and we know he is a power house....so surely it isnt just the main Absolute Power issues?
