Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

I have zero issue with new characters.

I feel bad for any fan who sees their beloved characters killed off or casually cast aside because someone at DC doesn't get the character (ex: Wally West fans).

Comics should be a big tent welcoming generations of fans, not making it zero sum. I love DC families and legacies, it can be handled gracefully and evolve characters and their roles and relationships. Batman and Superman becoming fathers gave new story telling avenues, they didn't need to be killed to allow their sons to shine.

They disappear for long stretches, though.

Yeah, it is uneven depending on writers.

Yeah, I pre-ordered her there months ago. I was expecting them to correct it or mass cancel orders. That could still happen, but it seems like more and more people are aware of it.

Yeah. It seems like a mistake. They probably mistook this as one of the cheaper diamond select statues lol

I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

I preordered mine in the store. The manager assured me that I would get it for that price. She looked up the others and they are priced at 124.99. And she said doesn’t know why they are selling those for so cheap. But hey. I am not complaining.

Smart. In the past if something is too good to be true, companies do not honor, but maybe we will all get lucky with Mera.
