Upgoat - "what's upgoat?"

Again I sing my cheerful song
What can I control today
I’ll sort the books, I’ll file the files
Pretend that nothing’s wrong But then my bubble bursts
My illusion of contented control disappears
And I dissolve in tears
Confusion and helpless rage But still I sort, still I file
Cheeks wet and makeup streaming
My friends wondering why I act so oddly
Strangely knowing better than I do that it’s time for me to rest
Once in awhile I do I tell myself “it’s done, I’m better, I won’t be there again”
I know I’m stable now, I haven’t wanted to die
For at least a week—or was it yesterday?
And then a nightmare comes, a lonely scream.
If I wait to face the demon in my dreams, I face it alone.
My mother’s in my bed again, I throw her off repulsed
And scream until my voice is gone and run and then
Awake with my beloved—that is you, thank God!
I feel your face for whiskers—can I be sure it’s really you
And not that sickening monster who spawned me?
But where is my cheerful song now?
When do I get to control my life again?
When can I get back to life rather than being
the prisoner of my own racking sobs
When can I run away again?
-Moira Breen 1988*

I have no idea what Daniel Cherry was brought in to do at DC but this is what he has done.

And no Superman’s prison rape was not some Elseworlds thing, it was the main timeline.

What needs to be remembered here is that the Discovery is taking over Warner in mid-2022. Which means no one is watching what the Wokeites are doing. Or rather no one cares, because they are all wondering who is going to survive the next round of merger purge….

Ultimately Warner Brothers doesn’t care because the DC heroes can’t be sold at this point. Or at least no one will buy them.

In eleven years, Superman, Lois Lane, Metropolis and the Daily Planet all go into the Public Domain. In a little over ten years anybody can write a Superman comic book and sell it.* Batman becomes public property that same year. Three years later Wonder Woman joins them. Flash, Green Lantern, Sandman, Doctor Fate, and Hawkman would have already been in Public Domain for a year.

That’s it for the Justice League.
