A few were interesting, but there were just too many bland ones with generic personalities and powers, the ones which weren't had a hook to them; Sparx being from a family where EVERYONE has an active metagene (But again, that didn't need Bloodlines). On the other hand Razorsharp got a lot of exposure but was just... dull.

*Shrugs* I liked her, but it's a matter of opinion, I suppose. Really, though, there's no bad characters, just bad writers, as they say - a character who comes off as bland as initially written could be sheer dynamite in the hands of someone else. That's why I disapprove of characters like the Bloodlines crowd being killed off en masse - someone could have done amazing things with some of those characters, had they stuck around, but we'll never know now, will we?

They'd had over 10 years to make something of them, and nobody had come up with anything that made them work.

They'd had an an entire event devoted to their luanch, a couple had had their own miniseries or series (Razorsharp and Anima (Who again, didn't need the Bloodlines to exist, it was just viewed as a convenient publicity grab) their own spin-off miniseries (The Blood Pack) and Sparx was a member of a separate super-team (The Ravers), yet none of them beyond Anima, attracted any real attention or success.

The finale of their introduction even depended on a completely improbable "If we're all close to each other our powers are enhanced" which was never pursued (which may be just as well, but was sort of an eyeroller),

Normally I'd agree that killing off spare characters is a waste, but the New Bloods had an overall maufactured feel to them, so I felt no real sense of loss.

I just think that the best thing to do with characters that hold no immediate promise is NOT to simply kill them off. The DCU is a big damn place - there is plenty of room in it for all kinds of characters that don't have books at the moment. As long as they're still canonically THERE, there's always a chance for them to have their moment in the sun, and maybe a lot more - if there's nothing to do with them right now, just... don't do anything with them. It's not like they're costing anyone money by existing. Killing them off is a terrible waste, especially since their obscurity makes it unlikely that they'll ever be resurrected.
