Although, I'm pretty sure if anyone can make a mega-event crossover issue worth reading, it's Slott.

My peeves have all come out of DC. The cross-over culture in comics thing drives me mad. It means apparently random things happen in one comic, which leaves you boggling until you finally crack and ask Wikipedia. The whole thing with the <i>Identity Crisis</i> fallout resolving in <i>Teen Titans</i> 6 or so months before the pivotal event in <i>Green Arrow</i> annoyed me so much. Reading <i>Batman</i> titles can get nigh on impossible, because they keep referencing each other;# and of course the mega cross-overs for which it's simply not worth buying any until you get the all clear. Admittedly this was worse during the nineties than now. However, this build-up to Infinite Crisis was madness: it was utterly inescapable. Okay, rant over. That's a nice policy you have there; may have to copy you on it. Word.
