Can't they let him rest?
The Spartanberg Herald-Journal talks about the One Year Later project at DC, and tells us that:
Something will happen to Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman during the crisis. They won't be around, at least for a year. Drastic changes are happening across the board, but those are the Big Three.Nope, I guess not, but in any case, I really don't see the point of absenting any of the threesome for over a year. But also, I really don't get it why:
Beginning this week, every DC comic book starts a new storyline "one year later."
Batman, for instance, returns to a crime-infested Gotham. Supergirl has joined the Legion of Super Heroes. Green Arrow is mayor of Star City.
After "Infinite Crisis," a weekly series called "52" -- which will be told as close to real time as possible -- debuts to fill in the one-year gap.
Nothing like this has been tried before.
...old Jim Gordon came out of retirement to take up the reigns as police commissioner again. They even let that slob Harvey Bullock back on the force.They couldn't have let Jim Gordon get the rest he deserves? Or even Harvey Bullock? Considering the damage DC did when the Joker slew Gordon's wife several years back, I'd think that having him come out of retirement reeks of something ludicrous.
