P.S. i always thought the story should have been call "The Holy Grail War" since Grail is the real "mastermind" and some of them are after the Anti-Life like its the holy grail. Just "Grail War" would have worked since they probably would't want to say "Holy"

Richard Schneider Throne of Atlantis onward (minus Trinity War, but forever evil was awesome) really did it for me. The first year was iffy for me. Not bad, but it just picked up a lot more with Throne of Atlantis imo.
