Earth of Invalidated Crisis'
Jul. 12th, 2007 05:18 pmI was talking to a friend of mine regarding the recent Sinestro Corps storyline that started in the eponymous special and has started to continue in Green Lantern Corps and Green Lantern.
One of the big reveals of the SC special was that the Sinestro Corp is being masterminded by the Anti-Monitor, who was the archvillain behind Crisis on Infinite Earths. Now, the AM was destroyed in the final pages of CoIE (although by the end it was a bit of a "Why! Won't! You! Die!" situation). My friend Chris remarked that it seemed like they were just reversing Crisis.
The odd part is that it seems like the past 22 years have been one long reversal of CoIE. I mean, as of last check: Monitor, alive (and multiplying); Anti-Monitor, Alive; Multiple Earths, reinstated; Supergirl, not dead; Barry Allen, I have no idea, but I'll bet he's made an appearance or two.
Everything of pretty much any significance has been reversed. Even Morrison brought the CSA back (did he have Power Ring in that group? How does he fit into the Weaponers of Qward/Anti-Matter Universe paradigm? Am I too massive a geek to contemplate for asking?).
Crisis is turning into something like the Superman Red and Superman Blue stories, or the Batmen of the World ones. Weird, how the story that was supposed to clean up continuity (proof of failure? Hawkman) is now a disposed piece of continuity itself.
