Dropped after second issue. I'm really happy that Secret Wars is coming next week.

Convergence has been pretty disappointing thus far and this preview illustrates a lot of the things I'm not liking about it. Repetitive dialogue, pet characters, and an overall atmosphere of apathy. The only person who seems like they cared was the artist, but that's just not enough to make up for the books other flaws. If this is what I can expect from Earth 2: Society then maybe I'd be better off without it.

@galeme: yup, and I had such high hopes for this event...

This series is a joke by DC. It is just boring waste of time.

The story has no glue in it to hold it together.

Nothing makes me want come back and spend money on the next issue.

Ugh. Seriously. Are we gonna get Multiversal heroes in this Multiverse story?? It's half way over and all we have are Earth 2 characters, bad dialogue and a nonsense plot.

I get DC is doing this to kill time, but geez, at least try.

Hopefully Secret Wars isn't this crappy.

My only hope from this is maybe Pre-52 heroes can comeback someway but by the looks of it, Earth 2 survivors will ''win'' and get the society book started...while all my hopes for Pre-52 goes along with it.

I never had high hopes.

So Braniac- galactus

Telos- Silbver Surfer

Riiight

I actually find this a enjoyable event.

@nightfang: I do too. What does bother me is that this is a continuation of Worlds End, mostly because I didn't read it. But I like the fact that I don't need to read it to know what's going on. What I won't read however is Secret Wars. I see nothing interesting about it.

Terrible event, DC should be ashamed they put such utter crap on the shelves. On a positive note Darkseid and Secret Wars look fantastic!!

So...Telos has the same backstory as The Silver Surfer ? lame

Don't know much about this event or anything to do with it except a few tie-ins, so can't weight in my opinion on it- just thought it was cool seeing Travis Morgan, the Warlord, on the cover! Have fond memories of "The Lost World of the Warlord" series, pretty great sword-and-sorcery stuff. They need to bring that back seriously. Back in the day Warlord at DC and Conan at Marvel gave me my sword-and-sorcery fixes.

Nope, good thing I didn't bother picking this up from the start

I do too ...but then again im a sucker for multiverse stuff

It does feel like this event was made for people who like multiverse stuff..

It's so painfully obvious how this whole thing is gonna just wrap up as a mini Reboot for the Earth 2 characters while all the other convergence stuff doesn't matter: Thus the main Convergence title literally only focusing on the JSA/Earth 2 characters. It's also been really uninspiring, tedious, and drab.

Thank the presence for multiversity glad i decided to skip this event.

I never expect nothing good than convergence.. and later bad changes in batman and superman

One batman robot acting as a superman no batman in preview of detective comics helping Bullock and his companies like superman, and in the second case finally understood, Lois becomes Superman an outcast... Damn Truth.

Dick Batman again, well the Batman of Society is he.
