    Junior is an illegitimate child. DeeCee wasn’t able to afford the operation that would have saved his life because he had to keep sending child-support payments to this crazy chick named Synical Popkulture who claimed DeeCee was the father.

    And you, over in the corner…That’s right, I’m talking to you, Barry. You effed-up everything.
    “But, but, but, I was just doing what Geoff and Dan said to do…”
    Yeah, but they’re not here and you are…wait, where’d he go?
    And why do I suddenly have this stupid collar?

  3. Hey, give Barry a break. It’s tough enough being more boring than watching golf in slow motion… Having to shoulder the death of DeeCee? That’s too mean. I blame the editorial machine. But that being said, I think the new stuff needs to be given a chance before we damn it all to hell.

    Oh, I’m giving some of the new stuff a chance. I ordered 17 of the New 52 and upped that to 19 for the second month (added The Shade and Legion: Secret Origin).
    Since they effectively cancelled every DC title I was collecting aside from Hellblazer, I treated the New 52 as just that: 52 new titles. And I looked at the creative teams, the characters and the story descriptions and ordered accordingly. “This guy has never written anything before.” “I’ve never read anything this guy has written.” “Don’t care about this character.” “Don’t want to read this story” (that one was a title by a big-name writer whose work I usually order). “Good writer, but the art hurts my eyes.” “They just figured out who this character was and now they’re starting over? Pass.” “Sorry, this doesn’t sound like [title].” And, in one case, “This might be decent, but I can’t get past my memories of how terrible the last book with this title was.”

    Oh, hey, it’s actually 20 plus Hellblazer for the second month. Forgot about The Huntress.
