Sold!

Jersen

No shit, I'm onboard.

Mr_Cosmic

Shut up and take my money!

This could be so good.

And I hope it is.

But GMo has petered out too many times lately for me, so I'll be trade-waiting, and reaction-waiting. (Or the other way around.)

The huge amount of lead-time this story has had, not just from the scripting standpoint, but on the art side--and how the art is being handled--gives me faith that this won't have the story execution/publication FUBARs that Final Crisis suffered (and I'm saying that as a fan that enjoyed Final Crisis, but c'mon, we all know that some balls got dropped on that story).

I really hope that's the case.

Because when Morrison is good, he's very, very good, and when he's not, asparagus.

I'm hopeful for this simply because Morrison's Seven Soldiers was amazing, and this sounds as if it will have more in common with that than some of the lesser projects that have petered out more recently.

That said, I did find that Seven Soldiers read better for me collected, so I have decisions to make about how I will pick up Multiversity.

I've only read through Seven Soldiers once after I picked up all the issues on eBay, but I arranged and read the issues the same way they're done in the trades and it really did seem to be the proper way to read it.

I'm eagerly awaiting more news on this!

Coming this August, I'm buying a DC title!

That just makes me even more pumped for this! I can't wait to see how this goes. Sounds like there has been so much research done into this, as well as the usual amount of creative juices.
