I hate this mini because it killed my waifu
But even from a more objective POV it's easily the worst of the Infinite Crisis minis, which is a damn shame, because the other 3 were pretty good.

"Timegazer", man, come on. Bullshit all around there. Also, I doubt they've even solidified their Death of X ideas beyond just the basic plot. Hell, they probably haven't even picked out which shocking death they wanna focus on yet.

If X-Men wants future shenanigans, they've got Cable, Bishop, Old Man Logan, and about a billion others.

Oh man I bought a locally brewed ale for when my parents came over to visit for Easter and didn't notice that it had an ABV content of 9.7% until I was halfway through the bottle and tipsy as fuck.

I almost admire RQ's ability to exploit victimization/a victimized status considering her background and prior actions.

I figure she's either a genuine narcissist or has a very displaced mindset.

Not that I mind, it did not look like one of Johns' best plots, and he already had too many plots.

It's easy to understand the no kill policy, but goddammit, there is a limit. Some villains are too dangerous or strenuous to hold, and are FAR beyond redemption. Really, when you get to Red Skull levels of evil, it's more like putting down a rabid animal than anything. Let's Old Yeller that shit and call it a day.

>>81422943

Both, kind of.

"Hawkworld" at first is an Ostrander-written miniseries that gives an origin for the Thanagarian Hawks. Then he wrote an ongoing series where they come to Earth chasing a criminal and use the "Hawkworld" title to also examine some questions about crime/punishment/justice on Earth in comparison to Thanagarian society. Both are really good.

Helmut isn't RS levels of evil but there are oceans of blood on his hands. His redemption has never stuck, and in his current appearance he's killing complete innocents to intimidate others.

If you have a kill policy, Baron Zemo is one of the ones you would kill. He's been a genuine threat to the world multiple times.

Magneto reversed the polarity of the earth and killed like a hundred thousand people. He's the father of mutant terrorism.

In the context of heroes being killing as a just choice, redemption for magneto is him being tried and executed like Hans Frank.

>>81423630
Zemo's a baseline human. As we've learned with Batman, keikaku is all we're good for at that stage.

You can have evil or malevolent gods in a non-evil society, and you can even have apocalyptic ones. But usually they are portrayed as a judge (look at Omega in the current Omega Men) or as part of the end times.

This guy is straight up 'you need to incarnate me and I will eat everyone's soul'. Which works for an apocalyptic cult but apparently it's the main religion?

It's rare to see in actual religion, but some gnostic groups will have an undercurrent of it. Some of the Spanish missionaries to the Americas took a maltheist perspective on the Aztec faith (a religious cycle/conflict where Satan, not God, was the victor).

Pellets come out of the mouth, therefore they're closer to puke.

Yeah. It's an elegant enough solution to the Problem of Evil. Maybe whatever deity or deities exist are just assholes. The Greeks more or less thought so.

We had a pretty great thread a couple days ago that discussed the politics around the Reformation.

>>81425828
Pagan faiths are hard to apply maltheism too because their gods tend to be flawed entities to start off with. There's no Problem of Evil if Zeus, as distinct from the Christian God, is neither all-good nor considered accountable.

Based Kilowog. I cannot complain enough at how little love DC gives the alien lanterns.

I would commit several serious crimes to make a C.O.P.S style Green Lantern series happen. And even worse crimes to make sure it sold well enough to last.

>Rann-Thangar Holy War
These people are like schoolyard rivals with how much they fight. You'd think they'd eventually just get tied of beating each other up all the time.

In DC at least it was alotta writers having fun bringing back smaller space characters and races that hadn't been used since the 80's and 90's and having a field day since rarely was anything tied back to strongly to mainstream DC stuff or even GLC stuff.

Its fantastically consistent with the characters and different races for the most part.
