So… Heroes In Crisis #1, eh? Man, there are going to be some lively panels at Baltimore Comic Con this weekend and at New York Comic-Con the week after….

But it has begun on social media… spoilers obviously, of course.

I started reading DC Rebirth at the start, mainly to see how such a large undertaking played out. I lost track of it a handful of issues in. Really liked the Wally West stuff.

You can imagine my frustration upon hearing about Heroes in Crisis. It's not permanent, but it's dumb.

Por que não deixam o Wally West em paz? Caraca, DC… o que custa? Nem li Heroes in Crisis mas já estou chateado

— Thiago Garcia (@thiago_pato) September 26, 2018

Okay.

Heroes in Crisis.

I know the spoilers.

No, I won't post/share them.

What I will say is:

R.I.P. Rebirth and the last bit of goodwill it had with fans.

I know that sounds dramatic and even hyperbolic, but it's honestly going to be that upsetting for many, if not most.

Didn't they JUST bring back Wally West? What kind of dumpster fire is this series?

— Captain Marvelous (@ShinGokaiRed) September 26, 2018

DC: "Hey, let's bring the original Wally West back, then just kill him off-panel because we can't figure out what to do with him." This kind of stupid bullshit is why I don't buy mainstream superhero comics anymore.

(Spoilers for Heroes in Crisis)

Dc just spent two years building up Wally West. They even made him the official fastest man alive. I don't know if this was King him self, or some editorial decision. I'm so fed up with DC!s their back n forth. I can't even see straight.

Why the fuck did you kill Wally West

Again

TOM KING KILLED WALLY WEST. Not just a Flash, but WALLY WEST. And didnt bother giving him a single panel worth a damn. Fuck off.

…sorry, HEROES IN what, now?

Guess who's screaming bc of Roy Harper, Wally West, and Heroes in Crisis

Heroes In Crisis #1. So yeah, this was good. Im sure this story isn't all it seems to be so i won't cry over Hotspot just yet. This was a good showing for Harley as well. Smart, dangerous and psychotic. Mann's art reached a new level of perfection only enhanced by Morey's colors.

Killing off characters for no reason (including one of the few gay male characters DC have), spoiling the story in advance with poorly thought out adverts and taking a subject that could actually be done in a positive way (treatment of emotional trauma) fucking appallingly.

// yo voy a hacer spoiler y Lagoon Boy murió? También Citizen Steel? Yo quiero saber en donde salía Citizen Steel antes porque ya no está la JSA

Shoutout to that guy at AWA who only cosplays Roy Harper and has all his tattoos….. hope he's doing well today

What if a year ago I told you that a Watchmen story would be more fun and less depressing than a book featuring Booster Gold, Superman, Wonder Woman, and Harley Quinn?#DoomsdayClock #HeroesInCrisis

Of course, as I'm sure folk at DC will say, they wouldn't do it if you didn't care….
