Maybe it's just me, but I've had more than enough of "Oh, the world fears and hates us. They don't like us. Boo Hoo Hoo."

This is the fricking DCU we're talking about. They love and forgive their heroes for their failings. Let's move on and kick some ass.

They... what? They killed Gavril? Put... what?

I am increasingly convinced the DCnu is actively -trying- to destroy everything their fanbase likes.

My god. The DCU United Nations agreed to the creation of a team of superheroes held accountable under their supervision, made them go PUBLIC, put the media spotlight on them and they didn't expect them to draw attention from freaking supervillian terrorists?

Then, a terrorist attack happens, the superheroes react as best they can and rescue as many as they could, even when their own are injured and you f*@#ing blame them for it!?

Why was there no conventional security at the doorstep of the freaking United Nations building? Not to mention that this is New York City, any major public gathering like this is likely to be under massive security because of the very fact it is an opportunity for a bombing like this. How could anyone plant an explosive that powerful without police or security noticing? Surely they would sweep the area with bomb-sniffers or a K9 unit? Did no one seriously check the stage for explosives? You could argue a supervillain's powers could do it, but the dialogue mentions "push the button" like a detonator for a conventional explosive.

AAARRGGHHHH!!! So much anti-logic!

I think Gavril might not actually be dead. He got zapped by some alien robot thing, and I think that that may come up.

But... but... I don't get it.
Given the positioning of the characters as the bomb went off, and the relative power levels, how did Godiva survive with only minor injuries, while those on either side of her sustained worse damage? Did they somehow block the damage with their bodies?
And how did Gavril die (or "die" ) when he was wearing full armor, thus arguably being the best protected of anyone who didn't have a force field or was made of armor?

(thinks way too long and hard about where the bomb must have been placed in order to deliver such damage. Maybe directly under Gavril?)

And why did they feel the need to kill or blow up most of the team, anyway? *cry*

NOOOOOO! Not Rocket Red now!!!!! :(

...
In close ups, he does look like Booster Gold...but I still say, he looks more of a Booster BLUE than GOLD now, with this overall design :/

Y'know, if you're sneaking around on a rooftop, maybe having a glowing faceplate isn't the best design choice you could have made?

Aw, man. I liked Gavril in Generation Lost.

I'd like to trade in any other following comments I might have in exchange for Charlton Heston's "You Blew It Up" quote from Planet of the Apes.

So when does Booster time travel and fix this?

So let me see if I get this straight:

A comic book team whose leader is a time-traveler with a history of mucking about with the time-stream (and who's very presence has theoretically violated causality) survives a traumatic event involving his teammates which results in most of them being killed, maimed or seriously injured and which he considers himself at least partially responsible?

Yeah, I'm seeing Booster jumping in a time-bubble and changing history in about fifteen minutes after he leaves the hospital.

This is fucking garbage. I will not insult the creators, but if I was responsible for this, I would feel ashamed. I don't know if it's the new DCU as a whole or just the parts I'm interested in, but at every turn, it seems like they demonstrate a desire to bring back the worst, most indulgent mock-pathos of the 90's back into the modern era. At this point, they've now fucked around with and dragged some of my most loved characters through the mud to the extent that I may genuinely never pick up another DC comic.

Great work, guys. Thanks. By all means, keep blowing them up, and turning them into killers, and making the world hate them, and having them attack their friends, and terrify their family, and lose any semblance of adult relationships so nobody thinks they're 'un-hip'. There's either an appetite for this, or for the hype that has accompanied it. Me, though? I'm done. I've been reading comics since I first learned to read, and for the first time I can remember, I no longer give a damn about a single thing in the DC line. I guess this was the last straw. You broke me, guys. Congratulations.

And let me guess: Next issue, some threat attacks the very people who forbade them from being a team, and then the JLU swoop in and save them anyways cause that's what heroes do.

My God, a SUNSET is less predictable.
