                                        1. Here's a fun fact: It's basically been a decade since DC Comics made two sequential good business or PR decisions. Maybe more.

                                        I mean, I'm thinking you can't even call it a train wreck anymore. DC Comics is beyond that now. They are into some weird nether realm.

                                      Just one awful decision after another, coasting on good will while poking holes in the hull. Being a DC Comics fan in the modern age is like

                                    You've assembled & launched a well-resourced mission to Mars & the minute you break orbit, Ground Control instructs you to dive into the sun

                                  You're stuck in the episode of 30 Rock where Jack tries to tank NBC, only it is like Groundhog Day, but no one learns a lesson.

                                Learning to fly you drive the plane straight into the ground because you saw it on TV. When the instructor tries to stop it you punch him.

                              If you had to build an apartment building, only you kept building walls in front of exit doors and firing everyone who tells you to stop.

                            You kept failing law school over and over but return each year and completely refuse to attend any classes or take tests.

                          If you only parked your car by crashing it into a walls and you just kept buying new cars and crashing them instead of learning to park.

                        I mean, the scale and continual repetition of DC's failures at this point are so spectacular it is like they're run by the Bluth family.

                      And every few years someone shouts "There's always money in the X" and some DC exec drives out to X and just burns it to the ground.

                    At this point, DC Comic's biggest fear must be the audience that lets them cruse on goodwill will die out b/f they do something decent again

                  I hope someone does a documentary on WTF happened in DC Comics the last decade because it is mystifying.

                How do you not only keep making bad decisions but also *not learn* from your mistakes and keep repeating them? And then make all new ones?

              It's not like Yahoo or AOL where on the surface these could possibly be good choices and we have the benefit of hindsight now....

            ... it is continually and almost immediately evident that these are bad decisions in the moment DC Comics makes them.
        1. …in reply to @Chronotope
          They are so self-evidently bad decisions that DC has to occasionally out and out reverse them and admit they are bad decisions.

        You know how bad a decision must be for a huge corporate entity to admit it and straight reverse it? Really bad.

      It's so frustrating so so so frustrating. It wouldn't even take that much effort to make decent decisions.

    DC Comics decision making is so bad it takes more money, time & effort to make the bad decisions than it would have to make good ones.

      Watching DC Comics operate is like watching Prometheus volunteer daily to stay attached to the rock while the eagle pecks out his organs.
