I didn't think it was possible for this book to get anymore problematic, but I stand corrected.

WARNING: for graphic eroticised violence.

And then the inevitable confrontation with the Dark Knight himself.

Dear Winick,

Helena Wayne called. And right now she's feeling like unleashing her own personal brand of justice after the way you've shat on both her mum and dad by writing rubbish such as this. And "rubbish" is being *very* polite. This. THIS is just not "sexy" at all.

A lot of people liked Ryan Choi after he died, his book didnt sell and he was not a well round character, he had little to offer and thats dangerous if you are a minority character played to offer diversity. But I disgress.

Ryan Choi's Atom title lasted longer than ANY solo series featuring Ray Palmer ever has, and indeed, based on comments from Jim Lee Ryan Choi is coming BACK as the Atom in the DCnU, rather than Palmer.

Yeah, 25 issues of Ryan Choi vs 38 Issues of Ray Palmer without counting the 140 numbers of the Justice League where he was featured as a main member, Or the 46 issues of Atom & Hawkman, not counting Sword of The Atom or Power of The Atom.

Ray Palmer had a GREAT PAST while Ryan Choi only had a POTENTIAL FUTURE, to be fair it is not the Character's fault, Gail Simone was writing other stuff and It shows, besides he was based on dropped ideas by Grant Morrison.

DC send Ryan Choi to his death, now he is coming back so DC can show some diversity without actually writing It.

Jaime Reyes, thats a cool character, his famiky dinamics was the same as most south american homes and was treated with respect. Kate Kane is not only gay but inspires the whole comunity, soemthing to be proud of.

Is wrong to make a character to claim divesity, diversity is something you only aim because of the readers, to inspire them. if not then you onky create characters that would end forgoten.

My apologies, I was overlooking the original title in my count for Ray.

On what grounds do you base that assertion?

On my growing pessimism, you got me there.

In the best case scenario the series will get cancelled when the whole reboot is gone (2 years, 3 tops). I base that in the numbers going down, we have seen other similar strategies that goes down when the company finds a better way to profit.

22 series are going down in the numbers and would be probably remplaced in a year or less.

I hope I am wrong, after all Ryan Choi is pretty much an open canvas. But DC has managed to ruin series like Blue Beetle and Static Shock (even if Static had a huge fanbase)
