  1. I just find the cynicism that drove this promotional campaign overwhelming. After all this time, I find it impossible to accept the thoughtless 'rebootings' of characters older than those making such changes. But then, as will be this case, the changes end up temporary; remember when Superman 'died'? Can you name all the incarnations of Robin? What number Green Lantern is this, and from which 'earth'? No doubt this he'll be replaced by yet another when DC finds the curiosity-driven sales dry up.
