Date: 2011-07-21 12:39 am (UTC)Also again..I can NOT get over..5..years...it irks me everytime I see it. That is NOT enough time to cram all that shit in. If that's the case, when did these heroes get a damn breather? They should all be ragged and so fatigued (physically and mentally) that villains will be kicking their asses on the same levels Bane did to Batman in Knightfall. Not even Superman and Wonder Woman would be safe. 5 years is not plausible and doesn't make sense. In fact..it's just stupid.
As others pointed out, this reboot does feel lazy and when I see interviews and statements by these creators, it just feels like a case of them having such egos that they won't admit to making mistakes and blame everything else. Reminds me of TNA Wrestling...never admit when they make mistakes and continue to do so.
Marvel isn't perfect but at least, for the most part, they don't do reboots. When they have starting points, they just have starting points and didn't have to have a huge reboot to do so. Crap stories are ignored or retconned and even later on, you may finally see a creator or two admit to how bad it was. Again, not calling them perfect..Marvel earned my rage quite a bit themselves and have done such practices that can cause them to lose customers as well. But enough of that, back to DC.
By the end of the day..it's become all too clear that it's laziness in an attempt to fix the stupid decisions they've made. DC can salvage this. They can, but will they? If they do, the next thing to worry about is..what is their version of fixing something? So far, we got rebooting on the list..just saying..
