Flashpoint

Crime Syndicate

Flashpoint (2011)

Of the major crisis-level events we've had, which one is your favorite?

And what would you change about the other events?

What are your thoughs on this movie?

Like the reality where Thomas Wayne becomes the Batman, Clark ends up being captured, Martha Wayne turns out to be Joker and Wonder Woman declares war on Aquaman for world domination.

I'm at issue 3 and I kinda like it as of now.

Does the timeline just split? I hope so XD

Personally, i don't like what DC made after the 2011 event Flashpoint.

It's true, DC has made some big events that modified the Multiverse since 1986 (Crisis on Infinite Earths, Zero Hour, Infinite Crisis...), but no one had such an impact than Flashpoint.

I could stand the merging of Earth-One and Earth-Two into one universe (New Earth), i even think that was a good editorial choice to have the main narrative universes put into one, but in 2011 they completely changed the main continuity history and all its legacy. They tried to fix something with Rebirth, making Prime Earth more similar to New Earth but, in my opinion, they didn't a good job.

As a JSA fan (with the All-Star Squadron they are my favourite superhero groups ever), i was very disappointed when most of JSA members were erased from the continuity.

And, personally, the Earth 2 reboot had nothing to do with the original Earth-Two, except for the names of the characters.

Alan Scott is one of my favourite superheroes ever, but i didn't like at all Earth 2's Alan. His costume became just like a normal Green Lantern Corps costume and his power came from the Green (like Swamp Thing), and not from The Green Flame of Life, the Starheart, one of the greatest sources of magical power in the universe. All his 40s style and all his mentor role with Hal Jordan were canceled. Same thing happened with Jay Garrick and a lot of other heroes.

Not only the Earth 2 reboot wasn't so good, but also Prime Earth has less characters and less depth to the characters' stories.

I don't know what you guys think but i wish that New Earth will return.
