Two Doves together? With Monarch in the background, you can be sure that time travel shenanigans are involved.
I quite enjoyed the Armageddon 2001 event from way back, but they kind of dropped the ball with the ending. DC had to change Monarch’s secret identity to Hawk because of leaked info that it was gonna be Captain Atom. But the whole thing with Monarch forcing Hawk to kill him in order to take up the armor and become Monarch himself was a huge plothole for me. If it had worked the way he intended it to, then he would just have been trapped in a time loop of going back in time to get killed over and over again.
Their stupid twist was more important than the story itself. I'm already not a fan of Captain Atom or Hawk going crazy and killing all of the heroes. At least the story was going a particular direction, but the gimmick mattered more. Then they turn Captain Atom into Monarch years later anyway.
