You know, where the villains (or, increasingly, the heroes) spent most of an issue following Robert's Rules of Order discussing how brilliant this plan is. You know what? I have meetings at work. They're not fun. Reading about other people being at meetings? Unsurprisingly, LESS fun.

I remember decades ago when Marvel started going cosmic on a regular basis and I did not like it then either.
Birds of Prey keeps it more down to earth and is my only DC title. I regret Avengers Academy being thrown into the Fear Itself cross over crap. I am sure that the honchos at the top insisted.

Ow...
Wait. Do we even own a table?
Actually, down that path, there's a whole bunch of stuff I don't like about team books. Training, trophy rooms...writers really do have some sort of weird corporate fetish, don't they? I can't wait for the guest spots by efficiency consultants who suggest firing Batman because Green Arrow does pretty much the same thing but cheaper.

Surely trophy rooms are part of the grand superhero team tradition, as all HQ's harken back to secret tree forts from childhood.
And don't call me surely.
