Ugh. This whole thing just seems tacky and ill thought out. And it's not even as though it's original. The "captive men being used to repopulate the species" trope has been done so many times it's ridiculous.
I don't follow comics, just the TV and movie adaptations usually, so I don't have any affiliations one way or another, but looking at the way DC is going lately... Batman is so faux dark and introspective that it would have even Kurt Cobain yelling at it to cheer the hell up; and now this. At least Marvel's kept its sense of humour. This summer, when I'm watching Robert Downey Jr throw himself repeatedly at a giant flying robot snake, I shall spare a thought for the DC fanboys. Actually I probably won't, as I'll be too busy watching Robert Downey Jr throw himself repeatedly at a giant flying robot snake. But you get the drift. ;)
