I just had to add this. My only wish is that Wildcat would have walked away saying .... "Darn whippersnappers...!" XDDD

I love the way Dini writes Eddie's inner monologue here. Eddie, you sneaky, narcissistic bastard.











I read this and I was like... That was good. I'm liking this Eddie --- OH SNAP.

Never trust the covers, period, for exactly that reason.

Precisely. It's VERY rare to find a cover that portrays exactly what's going on - if it did, what would be the point of buying the comic? That's what the covers are for - to give you a tantalizing taste of what may or may not be the real thing.

It's like covers are their own, random AU...-_-'

Well, you COULD come up with a very different version of the DCU if you went solely by the covers. In the cover version, for example, the villains always win, Superman has died and come back to life about a million times, and the JLA goes through bizarre transformations at the drop of a hat. (Of course, this is going by today's covers - if you went by the covers of, say, the Golden or Silver Age, you'd get a far different - and substantially more bizarre - version.)

Wasn't it already confirmed in interviews that he was going back to straight up villainy, though? Or maybe I'm confusing him with someone else. Turning reformed villains back into baby-eating psychos (even when they weren't baby-eating psychos while they were villains) seems to be a popular thing with both of the big two lately.

Well, yes, it may have been, but even at his absolute looniest, Eddie has never approached the level of Joker-esque insanity that seems to be portrayed on that cover. His shtick has always been 'riddle me this - I'm FINALLY gonna outwit Batman!' rather than 'Nyahahaha, you all shall DIEEEEEEEE!' I mean, yes, as you say, making villains uncharacteristically psychotic HAS been a bit of a trend lately, but still, I doubt it would make much sense to do that to Eddie. We'll have to wait and see.
