Agreed. But I still like McCulloch better than Scudder, who had no personality at all. I didn't shed a single tear when Scudder was killed in CoIE. And I was relieved that Johns' plans to bring Scudder back to life were terminated. Still "Fickles" to my friends.

Hawkgirl Kendra, for instance. Still "Fickles" to my friends.

Such a shame that a lot of characters were butchered. And the resurrections didn't quite make up for it. that was a dark period overall, no pun intended. Identity Crisis was so bleak. What happened to Ralph and Sue... and the gratuitous death of Ronnie Raymond Firestorm... The Continuing Adventures of the Postboot Legion! You can also check out the Recap Thread here.

Maybe because my gateway to that era was the final issue of Green Lantern Rebirth, rather than Identity Crisis. Still "Fickles" to my friends.

Yes. I think the current EiC, Marie Javins, has done a pretty good job of turning the company around. (Now if only she'd greenlight a new Legion series.) Still "Fickles" to my friends.
