"I would love to see the multi-colored Lanterns wiped from existence!"I was hoping that would happen at the conclusion of BLACKEST
NIGHT. No such luck...

Aaron, I was responding to your comment in what I thought was a playful way. No harm meant.

Oh, ok. I thought you might have misunderstood my reply to Knut's post. Sometimes it's hard to tell with just words on a screen. Glad we're on the same page.

I actually enjoyed the first issue of Flashpoint...I didn't mean to, it just
happened!

You can't reboot everything if you don't reboot Geoff Jones's corner.++ When I saw this thread, the first thing I thought about was Geoff Johns. He's got a lot invested in Flash and especially Green Lantern. And with all the power he has at DC, I can't imagine he'd let them wipe the slate clean on those two titles. •• And in my head, a ghostly memory of Dick Giordano says to me, as we walk down a hall outside his office at DC, "CRISIS will get rid of all the alternate Earths. . . except the one with Captain Carrot, of course."

Very much much in agreement, yet so many other people seem to be in complete denial of all of these things happening and buy into the hype and spin.

I miss the old days when I was 8 and I picked up MY first issue of dozens of titles and while they might have made me WANT to know what came before or what was happening in the rest of the universe (whether it was Marvel or DC) it was ultimately irrelevant that there even was a universe because there was no NEED to know what else was happening or had happened. It was so simple and it worked. Now it's just a mess. I feel sorry for the kids of today.

Yah. Then Alley Kat Abra murdered Little Cheese in a Teen Titans issue when the writers suddenly remembered there was still a comic setting out there that didn't have shit all over it yet. Y'know, because she was a cat who was racist against mice like cats are. Oh yeah, and then way back in Green Arrow Stanley grew up into a serial murderer and child molester and his monster was a demon from hell who had renounced evil and he was using it to kill people..
Sugar probably went to Spice's funeral after a tragic death due to huffing gasoline fumes. No doubt both were walking the streets as crack whores at the time. ( I made this one up. I think. )

I enjoyed FLASHPOINT #1, too. I thought it was a fun read and I look
forward to seeing how it plays out. The only tie-in mini that I'm
interested in is SECRET 7 and that's mostly because of George Perez
handling the pencilling chores.And, for the record, I enjoyed BLACKEST NIGHT as well.
