lol what Dclips were awesome imo <| sep |> yeah , they were hit by scandal right out of the gate . They really need to do something magical to survive . PTH has shown up with much better support and is attracting users , Xanax is rolling in a huge number of users . NoS really needs to do something to compete , or they ' re toast . They really failed to take advantage of being the first on the scene , IMHO <| sep |> Yeah , jumping straight into a crossover with no background info can be confusing . On the other hand , you can pick up cool characters that you might like along the way . I read Countdown only because Harley Quinn had a subplot there I know it ' s a bad crossover , hated by most . I had fun with it at the time . But , I got really into Flash ' s Rogue Gallery after Piper and Trickster ' s subplot , so it worked out for me .
