I guess I'm too juvinilie for disucssions like this, but I like the story. Do I care that those characters died? Nope. They were cannon fodder to pump up their big heel.

I don't get why people get so caught up with the whole "They're not redefining anything!" thing when the stories are still good.
yeah, i'm alive.

I contend that the stories aren't good. Green Arrow dueling Merlyn and then Dr. Light using BOMBS to blow up part of Star City? Batman having another super secret paranoid plan involving Manhunter rip-offs? Didn't Bats learn his lesson in JLA about 6 years ago?

Don't want you to feel like I'm calling you out, but give me a quick and coherent run-down of what the IC story is.

Alex Luthor and Superboy Prime want to re-create the Multiverse. Alex wants to find the perfect Earth. S-P just wants his "life" back. They dupe Earth Two's Superman into helping them do it, because he thinks doing it will save his Lois.

To do it, they have to kidnap represenitives from all the old Earths. (1,2,Prime, er, 8 and X, I believe. This is all from memory) and create a tower using the Anti-Monitors corpse. The represenitives power the tower and this creates the multiverse (I still haven't read issue six, so I'm not quite sure HOW.)

That's the basic story. The MAIN story, I should say. You have about a zillion subplots.

Which are infuriating people.

If all the additional crossovers and specials involved heroes meeting Alex and the Pocket Utopia crew, then fine. But to tell us that OMACs, the Spectre, Shazam, Blue frickin' Beetle, Checkmate, Max Lord, Detective Chimp, Adam Strange, Thanagarians, destruction of Atlantis, disappearance of Themyscira, Doom Patrol's return and all the other crap is tied into Luthor's plot?

As Nipsey Russell once said :"riiiiiiiiight".

If you need to kidnap certain people to recreate the Multiverse, I get that. Stick to that plan... don't try to squeeze in all this excess "random chaos" bullshit.

I guess I see what you're saying. I happen to think that with the exception of Rann/Thanagar War (Which I'm not a big enough DC Head to quite get yet) all the tie-ins I've read have been really good. I still need to get DoV and the JLA Crisis of Concince one, but I've liked them so far.
