I'm with you, a good story is paramount and so much more important. But for Gunn to say he's interested in not telling a connected story, but instead building a connected world... I'm not sure DC is built for that.

Maybe but what he's talking about is Ironman in 2006. It wasn't connected from a plot standpoint it was self contained. The idea is instead of fleshing out characters in the team books. You develop them in standalone titles then once that is done. You have fun with team titles where the priority is not character development but the dynamics of the team. Now from what we have we seen before can they execute that vision is to be seen. But it's a good plan.

Ahhhh, ok. Yes, that's a much, much better plan.
