This is why I am having more problems reading comics nowadays. The storytelling is really gone to shyte. They put stuff out there and expect us to fill the gaps but that's just lazy storytelling. You watch a good movie, or read a great comic, and they make sure that the world exists and that they set the rules. And all great comics have story arcs.

Hell, even if you look at Infinity War, there is a character arc with most of the main characters in the main storyline even though there are dozens of tie-in comics. The tie-ins are bonuses and should not be necessary to read.

I blame the Matrix Reloaded. Everything seemed random in that piece of crap movie and then I went online and found the answers on their website. What the...? When does a good movie require a website to fill in backstory? THAT'S WHY I'M WATCHING THE MOVIE!!
