Final Crisis Dc Views
Countdown (and its numerous time ins) was one of DCp’s worst events ever. Ic’m glad I bailed at the end of 52 and read Superman Homepage reviews to keep me updated. The only saving grace of the upcoming Final Crisis is that Morrison is writing it. It boggles the mind to think that the editors approved of this fiasco.
From 1963 to 1985 the term crisis was used to describe the annual events in which the Justice League of America of Earth-One and the Justice Society of America of Earth-Two met and worked together, usually in an incident involving one or more of the parallel worlds of the DC Multiverse. This usage culminated in 1985's year-long Crisis on Infinite Earths, in which the Multiverse was eliminated. After several years of disuse, the term crisis was applied to several events with either universal stakes or substantial character consequences, such as Zero Hour: Crisis in Time!, Identity Crisis, Infinite Crisis, and Final Crisis.
With the publication of Identity Crisis and Infinite Crisis, and the announcement of Final Crisis, the use of the term within the DC Universe has shifted. The Crisis on Infinite Earths is sometimes referred to as the first Crisis . The Infinite Crisis has occasionally been referred to as simply the crisis , and a character from the 31st century called it the middle Crisis [1] DC has advertised that there will be a Final Crisis in May 2008.
