No, that's not some not-so-clever attempt at a jab against some latest DC development. I'm referring to a plot point in the latest issue (#9) of Doom Patrol, which remains a great read.

So the bad guys, the Pan-Dimensional Gentrifiers, are after Danny the Brick (formerly Danny the World).



In case it's too small to read, the text Danny's displaying reads: Mmm. World War One chic. Quite dashing.







The Gentrifiers are preparing to take over the Earth (or possibly the universe; it's not clear), when they run a property viability assessment. They decide they don't want it after all.


All those Crises and mega-events were good for something!
