The Infinity Inc usurpers come to an end

And I think I gotta agree with what this commentor on Comic Boards said about it:
This book should of never been published. It is an insult to the original concept of Infinity Inc. back in the 80's. This poor man's Infinity Inc. story should of stayed ended in 52. I tried it for two issues and it was whacked. If DC is cancelling it ..... should of happened sooner.
Yep. They had a big chance to do a reunion of the old team members who could be joined by some new ones, and it could've been to the JSA what West Coast Avengers was to the main Avengers. Instead, they wiped out almost all of them, and made it instead into a pointless title that built off of what looked like an insult to the original team in the 52 weekly. No respect for the fine folks created by Roy Thomas back in the day. No wonder this is surely the most disastrous of all the failed attempts at ongoing series during the DiDio regime.

Update: while we're on the subject, here's a topic Comics Should Be Good wrote about the top five characters featured in the original Infinity Inc. back in the 80s.

About me

  • I'm Avi Green
  • From Jerusalem, Israel
  • I was born in Pennsylvania in 1974, and moved to Israel in 1983. I also enjoyed reading a lot of comics when I was young, the first being Fantastic Four. I maintain a strong belief in the public's right to knowledge and accuracy in facts. I like to think of myself as a conservative-style version of Clark Kent. I don't expect to be perfect at the job, but I do my best.
