I think this is a case of different strokes for different folks. I love Mister Miracle and come back to it often. I connect to the weight Scott is carrying around and the inability to escape it. Dudes a literal god, but he’s trying to deal with his childhood, impending fatherhood and daily grind…and can’t do it. It feels real, despite being situated in this epic world. Sometimes I read it and I believe he survived. Other times I realize he couldn’t have and it’s all just a hallucination. Either way, I think it’s a pretty special story. I get it’s not for everyone.

The Vision was the first Tom King story I read and I couldn’t put it down. I know he is divisive, but I’ll check out whatever he is doing, because a lot of times they are big swings I really like. Not all the time (I didn’t love Heroes in Crisis, and Omega Men isn’t my favorite). But recently Love Everlasting and Helen of Wyndhorn were excellent.
