Parallax is the yellow space bug that feeds on fear, right?
and Ion is like concentrated willpower, but also a bug?

this whole thing is reading like some story Geoff Johns came up with when he was 12. The whole "fear is yellow and its an energy source" crap sounds like a little kid came up with it.

no, i have a photographic memory, i see words. he said "caused" past tense. now who are you? and he called you admirial, so if this is some kind of military thing to train whales to track mines then forget it!

Johns is not even a writer, he's a salesman. His work is just "isn't this cool?" with no real storytelling.
fear is a color?
willpower is a color?
Superboy Prime wants to now inspire fear when Johns himself had him wanting to be a beloved superhero so badly that he would kill anyone in his way?

I remember when he started out he gave an interview and said he learned a lot about storytelling from working for Richard Donner on Lethal Weapon 4. This bugged me for several reasons. First, Lethal Weapon 4 was the shittiest part of a shitty series. Second, Donner isn't a storyteller, he's a director. Superman was written by someone else, Donner merely directed. And Superman isn't really a good piece of storytelling, it's an event movie that is built around visuals jokes and a good cast. Johns is just bad. I loved his stuff at first until I realized he was just repeating the same shots (the heroic pose panel that's in everything he does so identical that you know he's scripting it like that) and mind control (JSA, Flash, Rebirth) and the little fanwank moments (lots of references to his message board posters). Add onto that the constant stupidity. I think people like him for the same reason Britney Spears is rich, he tickles their fancy with his junk food stories that are sugary sweet but ultimately leave you with nothing but nostalgic "winks at the camera."

Gotta agree wholeheartedly with that Ray.

I especially agree with

Jus topen any issue of Infinite Crisis to see the "cool ideas" just tossed willy nilly with no rhyme or reason. Such as Doomsday just appearing out of nowhere. Why? Because it'd be cool to have a splash page of the 2 Supermen kicking his ass!

His stories do have interesting premises but he's such a poor storyteller that he just can't seem to actually bring in his cool ideas to a full satisfying story. His stuff ALWAYS peters out in the end. and gauging the last Green Lantern issue I just read, It's happening again.

Cosmic anal sex.

I quite like the idea they dug up the Anti-Monitor, and that he corrupted Earth-Prime Superboy. But unless I hear this has some sort of majestic ending, I'll be skipping it.

It's been pretty cool so far, but knowing Geoff Johns, I think we can safely assume the ending is gonna suck.

Will Kyle nobly die for the cause? Will SBP redeem himself and use his inherent nobility to overcome the AntiMonitor? Will The Cyborg fall up his own arse?
