DC killing the JL in April. Ffs. I'm already over it. I literally don't care. I'm so frustrated because I feel like all DC are doing with their stories are killing characters, reveal ~secret relatives~, and/or writers try to make their mark on a character and end up butchering everything. It's not like it's sad or shocking when characters die anymore, it's just annoying they can't think of anything else.

I took a break from comics after the Batcat marriage fell through, coming back I had so many frustrations with my previous pull list I cut back majorly (unsurprisingly Nightwing was among them), now this. I can't explain how done I am with all of it, after 12 years of reading comics I've now decided I'm completely done. They don't make me happy anymore I'm always left pissed off

It's funny how they're like, "What's gonna happen when the JL dies??" And it's like lol well if we look at the other time the JL "died" in JLA then we know that Dick became the leader of the JL and worked with Ollie, Jason Blood, etc. I mean, I guess they'll explore the impact on a more worldwide scale over a longer period of time but, yeah, the whole thing is kinda dumb when we already know the JL is gonna come back.

I'm curious what this means for characters like Dick. Are we gonna get the return of dickbats or what? Are the Titans gonna try to be what the JL was or are another group of heroes going to try and fill those holes? So that aspect of the event is far more interesting to me than any of the actual deaths that are going to occur. It's like how am I even supposed to feel sad about these characters dying when it's 1. told to us months in advance so that it's not even a surprise 2. we know the JL is going to come back 3. members of the JL have already died and been mourned over before.

I don't blame you for calling it quits. I think myself and others have also been feeling frustrated and bored with the comics that have been coming out over the last few years. Sometimes it's better to just put it all behind you and to try and get into another fandom or hobby that's more enjoyable.
