I think it has to be a multiverse thing along with a meta sort of "this is to blame for the tone" thing, I think. But I've given him too much credit before so we'll see.

it would be pretty funny if it was actually a meta explanation and apology? for Before Watchmen

what gets me is how badly DC seems to be missing what people liked in Watchmen.

>>82972406
He didn't mention Wally directly but this quote today from him stuck out to me

>So what’s on his board for the comics, which will go through a serious shake up in the upcoming Rebirth event? “Hope,” he says, looking for our nod before continuing. “And connection, and legacy. That stuff has all been missing.” Johns stood up straight after making that statement. “I started with legacy, because…it’s gone. I wrote the Justice Society of America for nine years, and of course I’m upset it’s gone,” he said, meaning the omissions made canon by The New 52 comics, which Johns is about to push aside with Rebirth. “All those characters, wiped out. Same thing with the Teen Titans! God, I love Conner (Superboy) and Tim (Robin) and Cassie (Wonder Girl).”

I really think he was pretty broken up about the reboot.

>>82972406
Does he, Anon? Remember when Zoom came back, and he literally had Barry save the day? Or basically everything from Flash Rebirth?

>Barry has done shit
>Lex took over the title
>Supes and Bats are about equal

You don't really even need Darkseid War, it stands alone pretty well

>"Let’s say you’ve been given the position of writing Green Arrow from scratch,” he posits, rhetorically. “Clean slate. You might say, ‘Okay, I’m going to write this new character,’ and when someone says, ‘Well, what about Black Canary,’ you might say… ‘nope.’ That means you completely misunderstand these characters.”

Ooh, are we about to get some Dantean cosmology?

>>82972747
Eh, here's one where Weisman's explanation works for me

>I tried to be faithful, and even intentionally vague. Death never says what she is. Captain Atom guesses at her function and at her relationship to the other “death” figures (i.e. the Racer and Nekron). No one in the issue says that he guessed right. So even if what he said was completely off-base, there’s still nothing in the issue that contradicts anything that was established about the Endless. At least not to my mind. One can always choose to believe that Captain Atom was simply wrong.

>>82972753
I have never been able to get to anything of Gaiman's at all. No, not even Good Omens.

That's pretty hard to disagree with.

>>82972794
I feel like that explanation doesn't hold up at all because, why would Death play along with that charade? She's Death, simple as that, she's beyond the Black Racer and Nekron (and as Blackest Night proves, especially the latter), she should have made herself clear. But frankly, I'm more annoyed at her being miscolored.

>>82972747
