Hi guys, I heard some news about DC doing another reboot of the universe and restoring it to pre-crisis (like, pre-original crisis on infinite earths) status, so I decided to get back up to speed on the current goings-on, since I kind of dropped off after New 52.

I decided to pick it back up after researching what that whole Metal thing was about. I read Death Metal (which was NUTS and awesome), and now I’m moving on to New Frontier, I think. Hopefully I get caught up soon.

What are your impressions of DC lately?

    Haha maybe it was dark crisis that changed canon, theres so many I loose track of the continuity changes. I dont think it affects and of the post-crisis characters as Damian and Jon are still alive and well in the current ongoings. I think they just merged the backstories of all the other characters with their pre-crisis versions. I’m definitely a big fan of having more universes, I find elseworld/non-canon stories are often better than prime earth stories.

    I recommend that you give nightwing a shot, I’ve never been big on him either but Dark Crisis really piqued my interest in him and the current ongoing is fun. Same with Shazam its a fun low-stakes story.

      Awesome. I just read Bendis’ Man Of Steel for the first time and I think he did an okay job. I’m intrigued about how the heck Jor El is alive though. I need to read whatever books came after that.
