Artists[edit]

There are two artists listed in the infobox, Jock and Andy Clarke, who do not appear to be involved in the books. When adding the bibliography references at the bottom I had to read the comic credits to complete them and have not noticed credits for either of these artists. Am I missing something or should they not be on this page? Same goes for Writer James Tynion IV. Darkwarriorblake (talk) 18:37, 25 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Jock and Tynion are the back up team for Batman, which should still be left because those stories are part of the event. (Here's the official solicit that shows this, at least for one issue: [1]) I'm not sure about Andy Clarke, as none of the other books have backups. Could he be for a book that had multiple artists work on it? -Favre1fan93 (talk) 23:55, 25 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah I've noticed Jock's name while adding the reviews, I haven't noticed Clarke at all, and I do add all the artists I see when doing the cites, so I either missed him or he isn't on the team anymore, perhaps solicited to be but didn't end up being. Darkwarriorblake (talk) 00:06, 26 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I looked at his talent page over at DC, and his credits there don't mention any of the titles in the event. The only thing remotely close was doing things for earlier New 52 Batgirl and Batman titles, but nothing for the event. The only reason he was added because he is in the official listings (which is in the picture on the page). -Favre1fan93 (talk) 00:48, 26 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

K, I'll remove him then, seems like things changed after the splash image was released. Darkwarriorblake (talk) 00:56, 26 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Few things[edit]

In publication history, I think where it says which character each book followed, Red Hood and Teen Titan should be updated stating that they were related, because IMO, all four issues were one big story that went off of one another.

Also, in the main plot, the back up stories should be cited with the writer and artist credits. I would add them myself, but I do not have all of the info readily available to me. -Favre1fan93 (talk) 04:59, 1 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Relationship to Endgame[edit]

How about including the fact that this story will end with endgame? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2602:306:CF87:9800:21FF:696F:B148:95B7 (talk) 00:16, 23 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Changing the image[edit]

Is it OK if I change the image to the comic book cover? Theobliviaf (talk) 15:05, 6 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I've restored the promotional image, as it is a better overall representation of the event as a whole. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 15:28, 6 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Ok. But I uploaded another one. What about that? Theobliviaf (talk) 15:29, 6 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Per WP:NFCC rules, it does not really serve a purpose here so it will ultimately be deleted. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 03:04, 8 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
