However George is factoring all this into 'Infinite Crisis,' it does seem quite a bit less elegant than what Alan Moore did with the Swamp Thing during that other crisis, all those years ago.
I'm almost prepared to bet all-comers a virtual fiver that 'Seven Soldiers' is going to finish in a fairly open-ended, vague and ultimately unsatisfactory manner, just like everything he's done since The Doom Patrol, really.
He needs to be sat down and told;
'George; a)No more breaking the 4th wall, you've done it already, man, on a number of occasions, b)no more expecting the reader to 'process metaphor' (because psychedlic drugs these days are, sadly or otherwise, rather out of fashion, c)no more believing your own hype, ie, hanging about in LA in screenplay option hell, it's finished better men than you - especially, you should stop having anything to do with that Robbie Williams, say, and d) mainly d) if you're ever going to be the guy that your fans love, again, you're going to spend more time suffering quietly in a darkened room, and less time hanging about with your glamorous wife.'
Of course though, he wouldn't listen.
I'm clearly reserving judgement until the denouement, but all the same, I can't see how he's going to pull this (often enjoyable) 30 issue shambles out the bag.
Has anyone got any thoughts as to how he'd manage? |
