Father Time, as depicted reminds me of...Mordru. Has that look about him. I sure hope there is a final confrontation between this Freedom Force and the new Freedom Fighters. (And I'm pretty certain this is leading up to just that!  ) The new Freedom Fighters should be: Uncle Sam ~ same Unc as before the new Human Bomb ~ Damage (Grant Emerson) Doll Man ~ since it appears there will be a new Atom, maybe Ray Palmer can assume this identity The Ray ~ Ray Terrill, the one and only Phantom Lady ~ not sure who would fill this role...maybe Lady Quark could be the female of the group Black Condor ~ are there any winged men still around? I guess the new Firebrand is destined to be a member though i can't say I like him all that much yet. And there's probably room for one or two more
"Hey Jim! Get Mon out of the Zone!! And...when do we get Condo back?"

Did anyone read the final issue #6?
<span class="spoiler_containter"><span class="spoiler_wording">Click Here For A Spoiler</span><span class="spoiler_text"> Captain Atoms returns to the DCU from Wildstorm because Chemo rips enough of the sapce time continum to let Cap back. He is groggy and someone shoots him from behind further injurying him. In 'present' time he is still leaking radiation so some group - I can't tell if it si Roundtable of Father Time's group- gets him and has to put a containment suit around Cap to 'protect' him. Well the suit they put on him is none other then... <span class="spoiler_containter"><span class="spoiler_wording">Click Here For A Spoiler</span><span class="spoiler_text">The Monarch Armageddon 2000 Armor.</span></span> What does this all mean?</span></span>

I think it means that even when DC is trying to streamline their universe to make things more user-friendly, they typically just end up making things far more complicated than they already were 
Some people are like slinkys: not really good for anything, but they bring a smile to your face when you knock them down a flight of stairs

Hehe, Captain Atom in that role all this time later. What's next, ohhhh i know. Zoe becomes the Emerald Empress. What it means is that Grant Morrison has full drug plan coverage again. Did anyone notice the place was called Command-D pronounced the same as 'Kamandi".

BATTLE FOR BLUDHAVEN 6
I didn't mind when all those mini-series leading up to INFINITE CRISIS ended without really ending, because I knew they were designed to move the reader into IC. But this ending? It really capped off what turned out to be a muddy little mess with a few fun moments. I know some of the characters are going to appear in UNCLE SAM, etc. But the Atomic Knights and COMMAND D? Where will *that* story continue? Or Captain Atom in his new/old/ominous duds?

Well since there's no other thread for it and the story does continue from Bludhaven, let's recycle this one for Uncle Sam & the Freedom Fighters.
I just read the issue and I enjoyed it. It's pretty clear what G&P (and likely Grant Morrison) think about the state of real world politics. I know some people won't enjoy being preached to in a comic.
From the character bits in this and the final issue of Bludhaven, i think Uncle Sam will come and turn the Freedom Fighters against their current masters.
I find it funny that there are so many superheroes connected to senators. We have one in Firestorm and now one in US & FF. Justice League who needs them the DCU should just form a super team called the Capitol Hill Clique.
