Well, this series was a waste of time. The setting is frankly, uninteresting. Taylor never goes beyond surface-level pop-culture fantasy tropes, that aren't aided by his bipolar need to either make everybody either super-nice or darker and edgier versions of themselves. The characters have less personality than a toaster (and that need to hide their motivations because of the twist didn't help them either). This has to be the most boring Batman, in terms of personality, I've ever read. Which is bizarre because plot-wise this is one of the most Batgod-wank based series I've ever read. He's got an overload of tropes to make him the coolest (even getting part of Superman's powers, he's given a dragon, secret king bastard son that's so great he renouces his heritage), which feels extremely artificial, and yet his character is flat as a table. This versions of Superman and Wonder Woman are basically caricatures (Superman is nice. Wonder Woman is a warrior. The end). Wonder Woman, who is supposdly normal, having to be told not to be xenophobic or a savage by Batman and the Kryptonians is bizarre. And the plots are as standart as you can get (aliens attack, Justice League has to form to fight them) and the execution, overly convoluted (we need characer making stupid decisions so that we can pretend this is going to be a war between kingdoms that goes nowhere because the threat is something else entirely) and the narration, just dull. I've got my fair share of problems with Taylor's other Elseworlds, but this has to be the dullest one by far. I hope now this has finally ended Yasmine Putri can move on to something else.

I hope this wasn't what I think it was.
