Then

Spoiler:
Rorschach appears

, to top it all off, because why not shit on the original series as much as you can.

Spoiler:
Ozy on the run because the world found out that he lied to them.

Why would he even go there? The ending was perfect as it was. F*cking Johns

This is Watchmen II, make no mistake. And Johns will be shitting all over it from the top floor.

facepalm

This is literally the worst possible way this could have gone.

The only way it could get worse is to say the Comedian is the 3rd Joker, or whatnot.

I think that is maybe not the real Rorschach, but it's still stupid as shit.

But those 6 pages alone actually ruin Watchmen and its ending. Apparently the aftermath is a Trump presidency, narrated by Rorschach. Because that's obviously what all of the readers want.

Yeeeeah... I never expected Johns to take THAT route with this event. I can only hope the story does a complete 180 from there, but given that he is opting to START things off with this type of shit-filled *bang*, it certainly doesn't bode well for the rest of the series at all... And worse yet: we have TWELVE issues to get through. none

I'm still going to try and stay optimistic, but damn... That's one hell of a kick to the nuts. srsly

Galan might like!

That wasn’t the only big revelation, however. Snyder said that he’s working on something with Grant Morrison, connected somehow to #DCMetal. No details were revealed on that, but it looks like Grant Morrison has got his magical fingers in all the pies since his return to DC.

😂

This is how I want to think Snyder's "please bail me out!!!" call went to Morrison...

Snyder:

Morrison:

Soo...Bendis's first story at DC will be a part in Action Comics #1000.

They gave f*cking Bendis the 1000th issue..? What a joke.

Shoulda been Morrison. srsly

Ugh...

Bendis takes over both Superman and Action Comics and another Superman-related mini-series.

Basically, for the next 4ish years, Superman is all Bendis.

We are doomed.

I'm...cautious.

As long as he doesn't do the SJW Marvel shit, and halfway through we have a black lesbian Supergirl, we're good.

He sounds more passionate about Superman so that's good to hear.

He's a "jewish kid"...writing an allegorical refugee God, created by jewish writers during one of the worst periods in human history, to fight for and inspire everybody.

Finally, identity politics work for a white, straight family man!

I'm still worried that his dialogue and characterisation is going to be ****ing awful, but we'll see I guess.
