Hello and welcome back to OH GOD IT BURNS!!! Your buyer’s guide to bad comics. As you all now know, Dan DiDio was recently let go from his position as publisher of DC comics, and while he left a lot of genuinely good comics behind him, there were many missteps along the way, especially those that followed what I like to call DiDio’s Decree, his admitted editorial philosophy that heroes shouldn’t be happy. Last week we covered one such gem from this era – the fantastically miserable Justice League Cry for Justice – and this week we’re going to take it one step further by covering its follow-up series, which has somehow been able to reach almost mythic levels of notoriety among us connoisseurs of graphic garbage. I, of course, am talking about the impressively disastrous Rise of Arsenal mini-series by incoming Green Arrow writer JT Krul. Clocking in at only 4 issues, this series makes itself essential to any collector’s longbox of cursed and forbidden comics, including some very memorable scenes that show the erectile consequences of superhero child loss, the first appearance of the beloved crack ghost of jazz past (do I smell key issue?), and a scene where a smacked-out Arsenal tries to resuscitate a dead cat that he had mistaken for his dead daughter. And if that wasn’t enough to convince you to give this a buy, then what if I told you that this title holds the unofficial record for most nonviolent clenched fists ever jammed into a single issue? This is one for the ages, ladies and gentlemen, so snuggle up with your copy of 2010’s Justice League – The Rise of Arsenal on the only podcast dedicated to celebrating the worst comics ever published… --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/ohgoditburns/message
Having just covered our reactions to the news that Dan Didio had left DC (which you can listen to in the previous episode), we felt that it was necessary to take a short break from Frank Miller’s tragic sequels to the Dark Knight Returns universe, and focus our attention briefly on some of the worst stories to be published under Didio’s watch. Thankfully, we didn’t have to put too much extra work into it, since we had already recorded and handful of unpublished episodes that we decided were too rough to ever see the light of day, but now seem pretty relevant, and among them were 2009’s 7-issue superhero tribute to misery porn, Justice League: Cry for Justice by legendary writer James Robinson, and it’s follow-up Rise of Arsenal by JT Krul. As we touched on last episode, following fan outcry to DC comics putting the kibosh on Batwoman’s marriage, Dan DiDio took to the forums and responded to fans thusly: “Heroes shouldn’t have happy personal lives. They are committed to being that person and committed to defending others at the sacrifice of their own personal interests. That’s very important and something we reinforced. It’s wonderful that they try to establish personal lives, but it’s equally important that they set them aside. That is our mandate, that is our edict and that is our stand.” For my money – and yours – there’s no series that better exemplifies DiDio’s Decree and how horribly it can backfire than Justice League: Cry for Justice. So join Bruno and I as we cry, shout justice, and cry while shouting justice in the series that is destined to stand out as the crown jewel in your longbox of cursed and forbidden comics on this week’s episode of… OH GOD IT BURNS!!!
