Okay, so read "1602" last night.
Loved it. Until the end.
Then I was all "Whuh? With...buh...Whuh?"
Anybody else?
Spike: You pissed in the Big Man's Chair? That's fantastic! Gunn: Spike, can you please turn off that warm fuzzy? Spike: What, the Lorne thing? Worn off. I just think that's bloody fabulous.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
And I'm trying hard to taunt you until the moment you get to read.
ARGH.
And I've seen at least two people saying how good it was.
3-4 hours. I can do it. I can do it. I can do it.
I'll just, umm... re-read Robin: Year One. And gnaw on my lip. Hard. Meep.
The obsession is worse than I thought. I *resent* that this is AtS night as well, because I'm not going to want to focus on anything but this, no matter what happens.

Kinda yeah. It started strong and ended, well, it felt like he needed at least one more issue.

Not only that, but...(white font ahoy!) "Hey, Cap...yeah, you, Captain America, you know, the Marvel Universe's most noble hero and whatnot...yeah. Your very presence here back in time? Yeah, it's going to destroy everything that ever was or will be! But it's cool, yo. All you gotta do is go back through this here portal thingie..."
"I ain't goin' back."
"Come again?"
"I ain't goin' back. I'm gonna save the America I lost."
"Yeah, did you fall asleep during the whole 'destroy everything that ever was or will be' part of my speech?"
Whuh?

Well, you gotta figure that with all that's happened to the poor guy, he's probably not firing on all cylinders anymore.
But better would've been, NNNOOO!!! They stick needles in me there! It's horrible! I don't care if everything's destroyed! It didn't work out right anyway!!
Also, can we assume that things didn't really go back to normal? We know what event kicked off the Marvelverse too early, but the repair actions don't fully make the appearance of super-powers go away. I'm thinking Daredevil here; you could argue that his power isn't really a superpower, but it still means Daredevil existed too early.
The one thing I did like was the "fallout" from the repair effort.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I love fallout.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Loved it. Until the end.
Yeah, the last issue was a let down. Too rushed. Plus what you said about Cap.
