Final SNAFU?

January 31st 2009 07:46

Final Snafu?

Final Crisis 7 is out. Let us pray that DC learns something from all the negative reviews.

Please Dan Didio never never never let Grant Morrison near Wonder Woman again.

Please speak very severely to your inkers and colorists especially the ones who forgot Shilo Norman is usually depicted as a very dark skinned Afro-American.

Please also make Grant Morrison think down and read all of Jack Kirby's works and all of the Iliad and Odyssey and NOT the Sparks Notes version!

Explain to him Deus Ex machina or in this series Kryptonians with Machines is not always a good plot device.


Hundreds if not thousands of fans are still trying to figure out how much of Batman R.I.P. was a hallucination. Many of them are now wishing Final Crisis was.

People do not waste any further money on Final Crisis. Cheat and read the Wikipedia summary. The only good tie-in was Rogue's Revenge and possibly Legion of three Worlds may prove to be good if it ever gets back on schedule.

Looking at DC's plans for next year I recommend Gail Simone's Wonder Woman and Secret Six. The Oracle mini series could be promising. As for Battle for the Cowl please Dan Didio keep anyone who had anything to do with Final Crisis away from it. I dread I will end up referring to it as Bruce's Boys go Berserk!

And Dan please please please look at every page of the art work after it has been inked and colored before you send it to the printers. I've seen some bad art in comics but Final Snafu is in a special class due to the bizarre way the inking and coloring varies in quality from page to page!


Here's a positive if somewhat snarky thought to end this blog!


Perhaps Gail Simone could give Grant Morrison lessons?

Deep down I'm still a comic geek! I prefer Marvel but DC does have its moments!
