The easiest thing? I'd recommend reading every issue of Booster Gold you can get your hands on. Dan Jurgens and Geoff Johns wrote the title, and his whole deal is flitting between worlds.... And Johns has been messing around with this since IC, and Booster has been there.

surprised this hasn't generated more discussion. 7 issues in, any thoughts? disappointed? impressed? somewhere in between...?

The event has been terrible, imo. Even the tie-ins are horrid.

Really? From what I've heard the tie-ins are really good. I just have no interest because the main event is absolute garbage.

This wasn't intended to be a major event like Secret Wars. It was just a filler event, so DC can produce books in the middle of the move to Burbank, CA.
The only thing that will happen is writers can use characters from any time period now.

If only that somehow made it better.

I didn't say it was as bad as Arena . I said the premise was similar.
Disagree. It's worse than Countdown: Arena . quote: (post ) Originally posted by leonidas

If Convergence was a newborn baby, I'd step on it and slowly crush it to death. It's Age of Ultron -levels of bad.

I was hoping for better battles, tbh. The real mini relaunch is in June. Which really has nothing to do with Convergence. June has a lot of diversity.

Not only it's somewhat bad but some few things doesn't make sense, Like the end of issue and few of it's tie-ins.
If only it would be a big event like secret wars. It would had been better.

It wasn't intended to be a big event like SW. Just a 2 month filler.

DC needs to put more planning into their events... I mean, even though this isn't a big one, there's still a lot of sloppiness.

It's a two month throw away event. Just so they can produce some books for both months. DC got a 7% increase because of it. Some of the books were ok, actually. I don't even think it's THAT bad.

It's more that they treat it as a 'throwaway event' and let themselves get sloppy.

There's several of the books given to writers who are blatantly unfamiliar with the characters (Batgirl, Supergirl). Some of 'em aim for the nostalgia value of the particular eras they're from, and *those* are great, but others are just, 'here's two month's filler.'

Yeah, I agree. The Wetworks felt very unfamiliar. And the whole crossover with Batman was awful. However, there are some gems in the mix, I thought. Like any crossover, you're going to have some good and some bad.
