Official: The DC Universe a piece of crap

[arbre_rieur]

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!

DP is my favorite DC title. True story.

This explains so much.

Danny is a brick and gay?

[tacobob]

Can't wait for the Danny The Brick action figure!

Lucky brick.

[darkknightjrk]

That was hysterical--but I do hope she took the brick out before she shrunk, otherwise...clothing malfunction on a Giganta level. :O

For context's sake, he turned into a beach bungalow by the end of the issue.

...Yeah.

Why am I not reading this? I should be reading this!

When Danny finally gets pulled out of Rita's top he'll 'say' : Eh, should've gone with Cliff's pants.

The Earth: We fucked it up so no one else would want it.
