Our “DC Let Downs” series concludes with one of the most lauded comics of all time, “Final Crisis” by Grant Morrison. This 7-issue comic is the end play of the incredibly long build-up that spanned multiple DCU-wide events. We talk about all the narrative problems, the character problems, and the WTF problems because, really, none of the good ideas from this comic had any room to shine through a cloud of anti-life haze.

Our DC Let Down arc starts off with the big daddy of controversial comics: “Identity Crisis.” Written by Brad Meltzer with art by Rags Morales and Michael Bair, this comic kicks you until you fall to the ground crying, then kicks you some more. We talk about the depressing, violent, sexualized themes in this comic along with their repercussions on the super hero genre.

We finally wrap up our “Hosts’ Choice” series by reading Guardians of the Galaxy by Dan Abnett and Andy Lanning with art by Paul Pelletier. A latter follow-up to Annihilation, the Guardians come together to stop the hemorrhaging of their universe but soon they’ll find out that they’re a little in over their head. We talk about the team’s chemistry, the moral implications of telepathic persuasion, pacifist skrulls, and the Universal Church of Truth. Convert or die! I BELIEVE!
