What a piece of shit. I know this is an older comic, but the artwork is AWFUL and the dialogue is worse than buffy the vampire slayer. The only positive element here is the concept. Dc's attempt to streamline the multiverses into one was a great idea. Unfortunately, this attempt was lost in translation. I understand that this comic series may have been monumental at one time, but it is silly and childish by todays standards. This would be fine, i know that this series is somewhat important to DC, especially considering the death of the flash. My only problem is that everyone regards this series as one of the best. When i asked around, seeking tips on series to read in order to re-immerse myself in comics again. I was told to read infinite crisis EArths, time and time again. I wasnt told to read this series only to familiarize myself with the current comics, but because it was maturely written and offers incredible art.
Well, im here to tell anyone whom hasnt read this giant turd of comic...DO not read. I cannot stress how horrible the art work and dialogue is. The artwork gave me a headace and the dialogue was embarrassing

Considering you managed to get the name wrong every time you used it I'm going to rate your opinion as 'stupid' and not let it have an effect on my own dislike of CrisisOnInfiniteEarths.
One other thing, I've never met someone who sang the praises of COIE in any way shape or form.

excuse the shit out of me... Crisis on infinite Earths. The series is still garbage.
Most everyone i have asked about the series claims it to be a must read. Even, browsing other comic forums and review sites. It seems to be held as highly as kingdom come

Are you sure people weren't recommending Infinite Crisis?
I wouldn't say that IC was anything epic, either, but it'd be a little more understandable why people'd recommend you read that to get 'up to date' with mainstream DC.
I have, a few actually which is what brought me to buy the TPB. I guess our standards these days are too high for it to be good. The story itself was meant to streamline their universe but here they are again messing with it again. I call it now, there will be a "New Crisis" in 10 years or so.
True that!

God Bless DC Comics.' No, no, no, God damn DC Comics, that's in the business of selling Superman comics and killing the Comic Book Industry...God damn DC Comics for treating their fans as less than human. God damn DC Comics for as long as they keep publishing Goddamn comics!
