The Four Color Media Monitor

I think this upcoming miniseries called DCU Decisions is a bad idea, especially considering that the 2 people writing it are Judd Winick and Bill Willingham, the former whose writing is overly liberal and who penned the wretched Titans/Young Justice: Graduation Day, and the latter who's known, or should be known, for how he beat up on Stephanie Brown in Batman: War Games. And that the overseer of the miniseries is none other than Dan DiDio, who tells in the following paragraph:

DD: Because of the process and the discussion that’s taking place in the world right now, and more importantly, it may be divisive, but it’s also defining. This is just another step for us to define who our characters are. This is something that we’ve been doing ever since Identity Crisis. With that, we examined people’s personal beliefs on what it took to be a hero and how much they were willing to sacrifice for it. In regards to the heroes of the DC Universe, I’ve always said that our heroes are proactive. They go out and they try to do good. Where the differences come from with the heroes is based in what is their idea of the greater good? Again, in examining what people’s political beliefs are, you also start to understand what they believe the greater good to be, and it helps define our characters further. Therefore I think it’s a good thing for us to bring this examination to our stories and to our characters so we can further hone and differentiate who our characters are and who our different heroes are.

What's dishonest here is that they don't mention here how Dr. Light's assault on Sue Dibny was obscured, or how the heroes' punishing him was put in a negative light. Come to think of it, I wonder if they've ever mentioned it since that monstrosity was published 4 years ago. But it's the mention of Identity Crisis that suggests something could be wrong with this. And with two writers, Winick and Willingham, whose works at DC are equally pretentious, I don't think this would work out well.
