The major issue with it is that it took a n established character and took a shit on him. Seymour was a moma's boy with his own set of personal issues, but was still trying to be a good principle. Then a one-off episode says none of that was real. It's like when the Simpsons had their origins changed several times throughout the years. Homer and Marge went from marrying in the 70s to marrying in the 90s. Homer's lineage changed from the average American to having African roots. They aired the jump-the-shark promo like a decade ago, which is when they publicly stopped giving a shit. The Simpsons shows what happens when a show just doesn't die.

They're practically the same on a scale. Order is good if it's not tyrannical, chaos (another word for it is "change") is good if it's not destructive. The problem is when they're both exaggerated and doesn't balance each other out. Chaos is as self evidently good as order.

Super-Shades being revealed as the Eradicator.
There were no clues. No "it becomes obvious if you reread it". It was just thrown together to get Superman back ASAP. They retconned in new events that supposedly happened during the whole "Reign of the Supermen" that would make the reveal obvious, which made the entire story up to that point completely worthless because none of that shit happened in the actual issues. Even worse, they had to retcon the last appearance of Eradicator to make the reveal even possible.
It's the moment that breaks the entirety of "The Death of Superman" and gives insight on why the event was so publicly hated.

That whole thing about us being mortal because we literally breathe fire that is killing us slowly and because we're not lobsters with our imperfections being a mass of discarded genetic mutations that cause us such troubles in daily life suggests we'd have to live exceptionally long for such a procedure to even remotely become apparant as cellular duplication occurs.

The thing is what happened to Terry's dad wasn't a genetic mutation. It was the complete replacement of Warren McGinnis' genetic code so that he would constantly produce Bruce Wayne sperm. The show actually supports my theory, as Terry's little brother shares his physical characteristics, and he was born eight to nine years after Terry.
So, for Terry McGinnis to be half Batman, Warren McGinnis would need to have his entire DNA replaced with Bruce Wayne's. This should result in Warren McGinnis becoming physically and biologically Bruce Wayne.

What a fucking coward. Many comic creators do not bother hiding their fetishes and have no troubles in the industry. Rucka is doubly safe, since he is deep in with the big two's boys club and has been in the industry for decades. Is he that afraid of few people on twitter calling him problematic?

>Also, if you changed someone's DNA to be someone else's DNA, wouldn't they physically become that person over time?
On a genetic level, but DNA is only one part of the equation. Gene expression is also very important, and that is altered by multiple external factors and just pure chance. That's why identical twins are never 100% identical, and can look less alike as they age.
A person to get that DNA treatment would just become one possible version of the DNA donor. Non-regenerating tissues would not change much if at all, so things like heart, scars, lungs, tendons, portions of kidneys and majority of nervous system would be the same. If person would be given the treatment after puberty, bone structure would also remain largely the same.
Unchanged tissues or tissues that take longer time to change could cause health issues. For example, you would have a transitional period when some organs and cells have the new DNA while others don't. That could lead to crazy things, like having two blood types simultaneously and two immune systems that are trying to wipe each other out. Assuming that does not kill the patient or change is instantaneous, then immune system could target tissues that were not sufficiently altered. Assuming that does not happen, there are still issues with mechanical incompatibility between organs that can't change and ones that can. For example, if treatment causes change in muscle shape, tendons might be strained and eventually snap.

That's not what I'm talking about. If Waller's plan was to have Warren McGinnis shoot Bruce Wayne's tadpoles, then she can't stop at just the sperm cells. She'd have to change the DNA of the seminiferous tubules so they produce Batman juice instead of Warren juice. To protect that new sperm (and the genetically changed testicles that house and produce it), she'd have change Warren's immune system to accept Bruce DNA in Warren's body. Now, it's possible that they just made Warren a genetic chimera, but Waller wanted pure Bat-sperm coming out of that dick, so I'm arguing they'd have to replace all of Warren's DNA to prevent the new Batman immune system from beating the shit out of Warren's non-Batman organs and tissues.

> giving Bart more girlfriend than Ross (there was a teen pregnacy episode with one of them and he's friggin 12! That was awkward, the show making me think of impregnation by a 12 year old).
Actually, Bart specifically states he is TEN in the episode. Darcy immediately says "you couldn't be the father, we never got close to that".
Bart doesn't seem to understand, thinking "we kissed and held hands at the same time" means that he could be the father of her child. Darcy then assaults Bart for making a comment about how religious she is.
