Completed the DC weekly series 52 today.
By no means was it bad, and there were a number of character threads I liked. But it spectacularly failed at doing what it originally set out to do – explain what happened during the “missing year” in the DC Universe – and it wasn’t able to contain all of the plot threads it did start, requiring some miniseries and specials to handle the spillover. And the big finale involved time travel and someone eating dimensions in order to create alternate realities, which may have set up an interesting new status quo but as a story resolution itself left something to be desired.
Still, I’m glad I read it, and equally glad I’m not going anywhere near DC’s current weekly series, Countdown.
