The two biggest powers ups were probably Cptn Atom and Mr. Terrific.

Captain Atom- Flying to the end of the universe, time-travel, absorbing energy from multiple versions of himself, "wish granting', coming back from atoms-he's basically Dr. Manhattan supped up 10x.

Mr. Terrific also probably got the second biggest upgrade. He was into casual dimension tech, and the type of techno babble you'd normally see from guys like Dr. Doom. Terrible comic though.

Also, a bunch of Batman's rogues arguably got upgraded. Poison ivy, Clayface, and Bane seem more impressive than they have in a while.

I would maybe say Phantom Stranger also got a slight upgrade, although I'm not too clear on what his previous power level was.

Aquaman

From what I've seen he's been powered down. Pre Flashpoint his best feats were around the 200 to 300 tonne range and he was every bit as durable. No to mention the level of his TP.

I think Flash is weaker.

Forgot about Ivy and Phantom Stranger.

Aquaman is physically more impressive but his telepathy has gotten **** all focus.

Brett Booth is the worst artist active in the industry. I can't read a book he is drawing, even if it is my third favorite character. 🙁

I see you out there, you troll!

I wasn't be facetious. Brett Booth is the worst of the 90s xtreme comic style guys, who are all terrible.

there's way worse out there

Indie artists who's crappy style is intentional for whatever reason.

not true. greg land, who is a photorealist, is far worse.

even going by the 90s extreme style you mentioned, rob liefeld was far worse. I also consider jim lee to be part of the same zeitgeist and he was good.

Greg Land is truly awful, but he is better than Brett Booth. Same with Liefeld. That said I have changed my mind, Whilace Portacio is the worst comic artist, Brett Booth will need to be content with only being the second worst artist active in mainstream comics.

Jim Lee (and Silvestri I guess) are the guys whos styles were aped by the 90s extreme gang. Brett Booth style is a photocopy of a photocopy.

Portacio is bad alright:

still think land and liefled are worse than booth.

Land has done on vary rare occasion good work in spite of himself, usually when the panel is too small for him to trace. Brett Booth is always terrible, so is Liefeld, but slightly less.

Liefeld is much worse than Booth, IMO. And I don't like that artist who drew Nightwing and Great 10. I like Booth more.

You are a disgusting and depraved individual, but other than that you are all right. 😎

😄 Who's the guy that drew NW? I can't stand his art.

Joe Bennett?

No, wasn't it Mcdaniel or something?

Oh, Scott McDaniel.
