    @holyserpent: It's a personal preference. Writing wise, it's good, but I just don't like the "meta" approach it took and was too weird for me. Also, I found it kinda wordy with exposition.

    This was weird, crazy, confusing but interesting. Man, Johnathan Hickman and Grant Morrison always confuse the hell out of me.

    I would give this 3 stars.

    This is the best comic I've read in quite some time. Captain Carrot is amazing in so many hilarious ways. Really liking this version of Superman as well; he seems smarter than your usual Superman incarnation and he's slightly more serious.

    The Major comics characters were an unexpected treat as well.

    I like Morrison's stuff, but I find it reads better in trade (so that's what I'll wait for). Still, good to hear the first issue is great!

    I tend to agree, but the one shot nature of each issue on this one convinced me to pick it up in floppies. That, and I was so excited for it I didn't want to wait a year to read it.

    Well, I have the comic book but I haven't read it yet, but so far so good with this one, one thing that I like is that it wasn't promoted, drawn all out of proportion it came into play slow easy, and I read some reviews that I liked also I like the characters...

    Somewhat, reading Final crisis helped me know who some characters were but I wouldn't say it is necessary reading.

    There's a chance that Vibe can pop up right? I think he's trapped in The Multiverse due to his vibration powers. Others think so too!

    I'm guessing he's going to show up in Flash's book around the time that his show premiers, but he could connect to this, in a video DC released about this they mentioned Vibe's connection to all of this.

    This was great. Morrison is one of my favorite writers. DC should have used this as their big event this year. I hope they tie the New 52 continuity in with this.

    "Who else wants to argue with cartoon physics?" Loved this book so much!! Oddly reminded me of the first crisis,which i also loved so that worked out. Plus i was surprised to see Harbinger,eager to learn her place in this story. Captain Carrot was a beast! Oh, i made a punny :D

    I'm not Morrison fan, but when the man is on her is stellar. I loved this issue, it's one of the very few times where I see the 4.99 price tag on the comic after reading it and honestly feel like I got my money's worth. I think one of the biggest problems with Morrison is that his stories rarely have all the pieces of a traditional narrative, which when reading a traditional superhero book or event tying into the continuity of a hundred other books really fails to connect. This project however is perfect, because it is allowed to be as weird as it wants to be.

    I picked this up for the concept and because of President Superman, but I must say Captain Carrot was really the one who stole the show. It's a good time to be a fan of creature characters right now! The whole team here seems to be a pretty solid group of analogues from comic history, especially Dino-Cop.

    So is Final Crisis necessary reading for this? I was a bit lost on a few things (mainly who Nix Uotan is/his role) but I think I got most of it

    No, it's in the New 52 so I'm sure they're expecting plenty of new blood to pick this up.

    As someone who isn't really all that knowledgable about the DC multiverse beyond Earth 3(? whatever the crime syndicate is on) and some of the Crisis stuff this is just a lotta fun on a post modernist basic comics story level.

    this was amazing ...marvel does some great books but nobody does alternate universes like DC ...capt.Carrot was amazing ! Earth 8 and the retaliators were amazing , the artwork was amazing . Definatly the best book I read this month this already puts Forever Evil to shame with one issue ..Waited a long time for this but this exceeded my expectations. President Superman was Awesome ! cant wait for the next installment.

    I liked this a lot but to be honest I do have one big problem with this. Morrison said that he had spent time making sure that each world could hold it's own book. Not only are Earth 7 and 8 very similar, but they are also based on a premise that could never be published by DC.

    Why could'nt they be published by DC ,....did'nt marvel put out supreme power and squadron supreme? and DC put out Lord Havok and the Extremists a few years ago with a bunch of marvel anolouges .

    How many issues will this have? I know the main Multiversity title has 8 issues, but what about any other tie-ins like Pax Americana? That makes it 9, but are there any more?

    I'm split between single issues or the trade. Except that DC puts out their trades 6-8 months after the last issue, whereas I'm spoiled with Marvel only waiting 3 months/almost immediately to put out the trade collection.
