ORIGINAL INFO: When you name your comic imprint “EPIC,” truly nothing signifies that better than… a romance comic.
RUMINATIONS: Trouble’s primary flaw is in its massive retcon (which I’ll presume you’ve watched the episode before reading the ruminations and thus know what that is) that of course was ignored by every person on earth after it was revealed. But of course it’s certainly not its only one. Simply put the story just isn’t all that interesting. Having read ahead now on stuff that’s going to happen, there isn’t anything insane enough to really qualify Trouble as one of the worst comics ever made. After all, we live in a world where Marville, Cry for Justice, Holy Terror, and lord knows how many other awful, awful comics exist out there. The majority of its hate really goes for the retcon. Fair enough, but on its own it’s just a dull romance about people we don’t care about and a lot of their dialogue is stilted and crappy, which can be said of even much better comics out there. It’s certainly nowhere near good, but I don’t think it’s as awful as many would make it out to be.
That being said, the covers are the WORST. What the hell were they thinking?
