Just as Superman's books managed to recover, for the most part, after Doomed crossover we got Truth, which wasn't really a crossover, but more like a new status quo for the following year. Regardless it did change things and led to some sad endings. And well, it is not a popular "era" at all, but maybe something decent was published during it? Lets find out. So lets start with the bad. Doing 4 monthlies with a radical change to the status quo - Clark depowered and without secret identity, is hard. You know what is even harder? When clearly creative teams (and probably editors) weren't on the same page and unsure how to approach things. It is not like different books matched very well each other back in the day and today it often feels like, for example, Batman and Detective are happening in different universes entirely. But I'd guess that when you do a new status quo it becomes a bit more noticeable and people in general were ready to nitpick everything DC did...
