Alex Ross joins Geoff Johns as co-writer for Part 1 of “Thy Kingdom Come” Translation- Alex Ross came up with an idea, and the unenviable task of trying to make sense of it falls to Geoff Johns. Alex Ross is a fantastic artist, and a decent idea man, but without a decent writer (Waid, Busiek, Krueger, Dini, etc.), would he have had as much acclaim as he's recieved?

Snarf he's known as a plotter and artist. DC just made their universe 100 times more fucking insane. It makes no sense to do this.

if they wanted a Superman in the JSA, why did they kill the original one in Infinite Crisis? pointless and stupid, and retroactively makes IC look worse than before (which I wouldn't have thought possible).

Blechhhhhh. I'd like to see how good a "plotter" he is when he's paired with a shitty writer, like Chuck Austen, Jay Faerber, or Judd Winnick.

They are going to reboot next year. It's time now for doing idiot things.

I used to post regularly to a MB with one of the women who used to be one of Ross's models. She said he was a major asshole.

All. They are going to scatter the titles across the multiverse. I'm with the Euro guy on this, and it's just my speculation. The Multiverse is back and Silver Age characters and concepts are retconned back in. Destruction of "New Earth" (and thus everything done by Byrne, Jurgens, etc): 42 weeks and counting.

I like the idea of bringing in the Kindom Supes as a member but would have preferred the GA one instead.
Fair play!

Surely the KC Supes is actually the current Superman, from a possible timeline, so how can he be in the same place as modern day Supes?
Fucking stupid!

Fucking stupid! Kingdom like earth 2 is one of the 52 universes now so the Supermen are not the same.

In fact, that was essentially the whole point of ' the Kingdom' miniseries back in 1999: that the Kingdom Come universe was an alternate earth and that the multiple earths still existed, only they were now called " hypertime."

I would say an argument could be made that it lasted right up until now. Between "the Kingdom," "JLA: Earth 2," the alt-Krypton in "Superman", "JLA/Avengers" and a few other books, DC's been admitting that the multiverse still existed for quite some time.

Which is a shame,cuz that had a better concept than what they have now.First,the GA Supeerman was shown to have his Earth,not some crystal rooms with only three other people,but couldn't escape it.Second,anyone from a different Earth couldn't stay long or the one they were on would stsrt to go screwy.So it kinda set some boundries on "cross-overs" from other alternate universes.
