One star for the effort of cleaning up the very messy DC universe. But seriously, reading this again as an adult was like homework; I simply couldn't wait to be done with it. Every single page has some DC hero shouting out his power and calling all the other heroes by their names after every interaction - just so we're clear who's who in this childish morass of a storyline. Too many trite Great Scotts! and Hera Help Mes! Worst thing about it: Flash's Cosmic Treadmill! Worst line within it: "Suddenly, [Earth:] is gone, swallowed whole, a cosmic Jonah lost to some inter-universal whale." Watchmen was great. Wildcards was great. It wasn't that the writing of that decade was just bad. Sadly, it was Marv. This is why I read Marvel in the 80s.
