I think you're right, sadly.
I hope I'm not. I like to think they wouldn't just toss away the classic Firestorm like that. And I'm OK with Jason, I really am. But if Ronnie goes, I want him to go well.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

Hmm, a thought just occurred to me.
Does anyone know if Elongated Man and the Atom are among the heroes whose powers Amazo has duplicated over the years?

Sure. Amazo's duplicated almost every major leaguer at one point or another.
Why do you ask?

I think I see where Matt's going with this. Wish I knew who Amazo was, but from what you guys are saying, I have an idea what his powers are.

The idea that I had was that Amazo might have somehow picked up an impression of the memories of leaguers it's mimicked, along with their powers and skills. That would give a motive for going after their loved ones, and explain what may be a variety of powers used in the break-ins/assaults .
it now occurs to me that since Amazo had the Martian Manhunter's powers, it wouldn't need to pick up memories from the duplication process, it could just read the heroes' minds .

Matt, It's a good idea, but I don't think so. My suspicion here is that the "black market" weapons trade is more relevant than the particulars of it.

Sumi, that's weird, because Diamond and this list don't have it.

New comics didn't either -- but DC lists it and so does Graham Crackers.
I guess we'll see in a couple of hours.
