Look, an important thing to learn about trauma is that just because someone else suffered more, it doesn't mean you didn't suffer.

Man. If you ever want to see the difference an inker can make, check out the splash pages in this week's Superman.

I might suggest throwing the offender into a volcano, but Mahnke himself was one of the three listed.

They had the exact same treatment only Conner was still related to the Superman family and Bart wasn't. I know you like Conner more but they both got a lovely rework and Bart got completely removed from the Flash family on top of being ruined.

Some teeth long for ripping, gleaming wet from black dog gums. So you keep your eyes closed at the end. You don't want to see such a mouth up close. before the bite, before its oblivion in the goring of your soft parts, the speckled lips will curl back in a whinny of excitement. You just know it.
I was under the impression that neither Conner nor Bart existed since Nu52 and are just more tragic victims of Barry Allen being a lovely time traveler Dr. Manhattan?

Pretty much.

Conner was replaced by Kon-el and Bart by Bar-Tor.

Although Bart was originally planned to be the actual Bart Allen coming back in representation of the Legion before editorial derailed those plans by making the Legion off limits. The change with NuWally didn't help either.

I dropped Teen Titans before the issue came out, so every DC book I read this week was really good.

In particular I adored Batman, Super Sons, Trinity, and Superman.

Justice League/Power Rangers is nice to have back after the delay. This is such a standard crossover plot, but it's done so goddamn well. The League letting the Rangers have at it with the weapons in the trophy room is a fantastic idea that I'm disappointed didn't go even farther.

They already had an issue on the villain trinity. Lex, Ra's, and Circe. It seems as if they play into this story too from the solicit above.

I really liked Tynion and Ming Doyle's Hellblazer. Simon Oliver's was honestly surprisingly disappointing considering it had a really cool premise involving Constantine travelling with Swamp Thing into the Rot...and then that never actually really happened.

Seeley's a really entertaining writer.

I hope his take is way better.
