I didn't read the whole Genis-vell going insane storyline, I wish I did. peter David was on a role there and CrissCross' art was awesome. Think Carlos Pacheco/Salvador LaRocca with more dynamic angles. Apparently, the guy destroyed the universe and recreated it. He took on Magus, Moondragon, cosmic beings and was pretty much unstoppable.
Kind of like Parallax power levels during Zero Hour before they retconned that. JLA couldn't do schizer against Parallax. I'm kinda mixed on that retcon too. The yellow impurity was cool and Sinestro's return.... but I always thought Hal going insane was the gutsiest character turn ever because it seemed irreversible. I mean... make the man a hero again but make him live with the damn consequences. I woulda donated my kidney if a good writer tackled that issue and made some good comics out of it. Then again... I kinda wonder how Genis-vell eventually dealt with his insanity. Anybody know?
