Problem with Countdown is that all the big things we were told about the book (Death of the New Gods, Search for Ray Palmer, etc.) are actually happening in spin off series. Countdown itself doesn't actually feel important. 52 on the other hand, was the most important book running in DC throughout its entire year. You could tell that just by who was writing it. 4 superstar writers on one book gives you the feeling that SOMETHING is going to happen.

maybe its some lame ass ploy to make more money always with the freaking money as if though they dont already wipe themselves with 100 dollar bills after using the toilet.

And yet it was mentioned that One was more poweful than all the heroes on the planet combined. But then a monitor uses a gun? WTF.

I dont think that was nearly as wierd as Donna Troy using a gun, 7 issues later. W.T.F. was Dini thinking.

Dini? He only wrote the first issue.

I was under the impression he was writing the entire series 😕 .

Like Wiki says, he is the head writer but to this date he's only written one issue himself.

So the head writer doesn't actually do any writing ?

Oh i guess that makes loads of sense.

He plots the entire series but no, he isn't obligated to write each issue. That's the bonus of being in charge.

Most of the subplots in 52 were completely pointless to the rest of the DCU
(Steel, The Question, Elongated Man).

The only important ones were Black Adam's and Booster Gold's.

Maybe. It probably helped there was nothing else going on at that time. However, thats still 2 more important plots than Countdown has.

The Darkseid thing is important (Death of the New Gods), and the Ray Palmer thing is important.

So..yeah 😐
