Thus ends Cataclysm. Out with a whimper I’m afraid. I never read full events as a kid. Instead I would just follow my series, assuming that was the way and just accept that anything I missed wasn’t important. Sadly…that was still kinda true. There’s no real overarching story here except maybe the quakemaster reveal, which was fun and very on par for Dixon. The strength of this crossover is the first two issues of Batman fighting to get out of the cave and seeing the destruction of Gotham. After that, it’s just a kinda one and done story’s in the context of post-quake Gotham. It’s very unnerving to think about this coming out in the late nineties, right before 9/11 hit. And right before this storyline was a plague story, so there was a lot of feelings reading this at this point in my life, looking back. So much looking back, hoping that at some point I’m given the chance to right the wrongs and re-live the times I didn’t realize were the best of my life. Quite the cataclysm of memory.
