Damnit DC! First you reboot the entire line, then you make Starfire into a slut, then you cancel OMAC, and now this. I love you DC, I really do. But you make it so hard to be a fan when you pull crap like this.

And have we gotten to the point where even our comics have to endlessly appeal to 80s nostalgia? I thought we hit rock bottom with Micheal Bay's Transformers and that "The Thing" prequel.

I don't even know if these will be all that bad. They'll probably be at least decent books if we take them on their own. The problem is tacking them onto one of the most seminal works in the medium. Personally, I prefer Alan Moore's other works, like "For the Man Who Has Everything" and "A Killing Joke".

I hesitate to say whether or not I'll be buying any of these. I should just scrub the whole business out of protest, but I do have a soft spot for Rorschach.
