DC's Convergence

Anybody reading it?

I picked up a few issues on Free Comic Book Day... 0 through 4 and a couple Superman-related ones. Neat idea, but somehow, despite the grand scheme and the implications of it, it can't help but feel like it's kind of on the lower-end as far as these cosmic events go. It's neat seeing characters and stories done in the various older styles again, though. Reminds me heavily of Zero Hour, which I rather enjoyed. Main book seems kind of thin on plot, and the entire experience isn't exactly what I'd call "new-reader friendly", but it's neat.

I'll probably pick up the second half and a few more in a couple weeks. I'm interested in seeing what kind of twist they'll have in the late rounds. You know they're not going to wipe out their beloved Multiverse. Those "alternate" worlds like Injustice are DC's bread and butter at this point, after all. So I'm curious to see how they change up the status quo while still finding a way out of the "All worlds are dead" scenario.

Also: Hey! Neat! Time Masters. That's always fun.
