text: No spoilers intended, but some ideas must be presented to explain my rating. I read the collected edition knowing full well the outcome of the series, and I just can’t help wondering if this was even a story that needed telling. Superheroes are supposed to be better than us. Does it help to see so many of them broken? Even worse, what good does it do to break a representation of hope? I’d would have rather had a story rebuilding the DCU rather than destroying it.
