Hopefully Supes can get a better creative mind for the future bc Bendis really screwed up so many things for those characters. "EVENT: LEVIATHAN" was probably the worst 'event comic series' I have ever read and it really didn't even have enough content for half of one issue, let alone six issues. The title of the series didn't even make sense. The big thing that caused the series happened 'off-panel' and the series was supposed to be a mystery but then the mystery ended up being something no one could have guessed/solved bc he threw in a random character who had not been mentioned or appeared in the series before and was like 'ta da, here is the villain, did u guess it'.
Then it just ended with zero resolution to anything, absolutely none. Nothing happened and the one thing that did happen off-panel was just left unresolved and I don't think Bendis/DC bothered to mention it since...

The only good stuff Bendis wrote at Marvel was Alias. If you want good Bendis find his crime stuff from before he went to Marvel. His Sam&Twitch run was pretty good.
