Great post!! (especially liked the little aside about Doom and his "types")

Lesbian Utopia worshipping a dude comes to mind first
Yeah, the part where America's home dimension was worshipping Billy was really, really weird.

McKelvie has a massive same face problem
I think McKelvie's art is really pretty, and he's good at drawing expressions, but he seems to reuse the same ones a lot. Like, I feel like I've seen every character he's ever drawn do the condescending look-down-the-nose face at least once. And yeah, definitely sameface-y.

It's a great fic and I hope you enjoy it.
