Horrible!?! Next you'll probably tell me that you don't like DC's Rebirth arc with its meta-narrative about how much damage Watchmen did to comics with villain Dr. Manhattan exploding people and shit like this -
Actually that does sound pretty terrible now that I think about it.

Meglomaniac who has always had a hardon for superceeding/beating superman is taking away his identity? Sounds pretty in character with Lex Luthor to me.Actually, this is worse.
For real they did not have to go through a bunch of hoops to tell smarter, more fun, brighter stories. DC just needs to fucking write smarter, more fun, brighter stories.

They already hinted in Rebirth, that with the Watchmen interfering with things, to expect darker, more edgier stories.

Yeah I heard it was a meta level thing where Dr manhattan made it 'grim and gritty' and that shit is going to turn around.

Marvel must be getting desperate making Cap a hydra agent. Seriously wtf are they thinking? I guess their options were let's make him gay or a hydra agent. Oh well Sieg Heil Captain Germany.

So.. I get that hydra and nazis were linked in the movie, but did they retcon that into the comics as well? Hydra was always just a criminal organization with their own agenda, not part of the nazis, from what I remember. I've been very confused by all this talk about Cap being a nazi now. I still think the storyline is dumb as shit, but for different reasons.

Garbage.
I don't just mean the reveal. That reveal framing is an ape of Scott Snyders work. The entire work is really forced and wants to be "hip". Red Skull is not a MRA. Why the fuck would someone say blowing up a train is good on youtube? As a new number 1 I wonder why the artwork was so rushed in the sharon carter parts. Who gives a fuck about Rick Jones? There is no impetus for him to become a hydra agent. He fought Baron Zemo for the 10 thousanth time, that's not a trigger. It's writing to pander to a reveal. None of the dialogue works. It's worse than Geoff Johns at his most literal. Nothing flows at all. Nothing works at all. The comic was built to get to that final panel, and it falls apart WAY before then.

Heh I read the last part of Darkseid War, what a fucking mess and so confusing if you hadn't been reading it from the beginning.
This is why DC sucks.

Unbelievably bad. Of course, the cosmic cube girl rewrote history. I expect it will be changed back as soon as they figure that no one wants to read a comic book starring a Nazi.

Ever since Captain America being killed was able to grab the attention of the national media and made headlines, it really seems like Marvel has set out to achieve the same thing on a yearly basis with some controversial change: Thor's a woman, Iceman's gay, Spider-Man's marriage never happened, etc. Starting to feel like this is Marvel's version of clickbait. The thing I don't understand is why they're determined to piss off so much of their readership to accomplish this. It might create a spike in sales initially due to the attention it gets, but have sales really held up? I thought Thor had a substantial drop after the first couple months. Will be interesting to see if Captain Nazi goes the same way.
