I may be mistaken, but I think Dr. Mid-Nite’s slip just revealed him to be a SKRULL!

That’ll play. But even he has had several flirtations with life, including the excellent “Return of Barry Allen” story in Flash a few years back.

“Barry Allen Dead”?

DC does permanent death… differently. But it’s just about as successful.

The DC equivalent of “Bucky Dead” or “Captain Marvel Dead” (now referred to as “Rob Liefeld’s Career Dead”) is probably “Ferro Lad Dead,” and even he has had a mild case of ‘life’ a time or two since 1967…

Love the characters. Green Arrow has been a favorite since the Trevor Von Eeden days. I loved the Mike Grell version, and enjoyed the Kevin Smith re-birth.

The problem I have is, I thought we had already covered Ollie coming to grips with his being a “bad” father, and it was done a little better then?

This issue really felt like a fill-in, which is not a good thing, as the writer has been around since the begining of the series.

Even if Connor “dies” I’m sure we’ll see him again one day (Or does DC do permanent death better than Marvel? I’m not as familiar with the DC universe).
