Honestly, I think continuity does matter in a story like this, but not in a detailed manner.
Honestly, comic book readers are jaded. We've read a million 'This changes everything!' stories that we just can't swallow any more. We're done.
The Court of Owls feels like a pointless flash in a pan because that's basically what it is. We have all of one story introducing this massive secret society that's all powerful (yet never done anything, ever). No effort was made to sell the story, to add any emphasize, nothin'.
If they want a super sized story, they gotta put some effort into it before we suspend disbelief. When they don't, people can't help but ask logical questions.
Founded by girl geeks and members of the slash fandom, scans_daily strives to provide an atmosphere which is LGBTQ-friendly, anti-racist, anti-ableist, woman-friendly and otherwise discrimination and harassment free.
Bottom line: If slash, feminism or anti-oppressive practice makes you react negatively, scans_daily is probably not for you.
