Two pages from Justice League of America 31, and the story behind them
In the latest issue of JLA, there's a short scene between Red Arrow and Black Canary. Those pages have an interesting behind-the-scenes story to them, as Dwayne McDuffie revealed on a message board some time back.

Why a simulation of a graveyard, you perhaps wonder. Here's your answer.

Some readers were discussing the fate of Hawkman and Hawkgirl in Final Crisis and whether or not they died. McDuffie chimed in with:

I wrote a scene set at their gravesite that I recently had to quickly rewrite into something not very good.

Which prompted the following exchange.

Reader: Do you actually enjoy writing JLA? It just seems to be constant editorial rewrites and bad art.

McDuffie: No, I don't.

It's not just that.

It epitomizes what is wrong with superhero comics as an "industry".

I don't know about that. I think the interconnectedness of superhero titles gets exaggerated sometimes. Looking at the comics under the DC Universe imprint that came out in March, these are the titles that don't tie into much of anything (that I know of) and are pretty much off doing their own thing:

BATMAN: CACOPHONY #3 (OF 3)
BLACK LIGHTNING: YEAR ONE #5 (OF 6)
THE MIGHTY #2
SECRET SIX #7
SOLOMON GRUNDY #1 (OF 7)
STRANGE ADVENTURES #1 (OF 8)
SUPERGIRL: COSMIC ADVENTURES IN THE EIGHTH GRADE #4
TERROR TITANS #6 (OF 6)
TRINITY #40
BATMAN CONFIDENTIAL #27
BOOSTER GOLD #18
GREEN ARROW/BLACK CANARY #18
R.E.B.E.L.S. #2
SIMON DARK #18
SUPERMAN/BATMAN #56
TITANS #11
TRINITY #41
BLACK LIGHTNING: YEAR ONE #6 (OF 6)
SUPER FRIENDS #13
TINY TITANS #14
TRINITY #42
VIGILANTE #4
BATMAN: GOTHAM AFTER MIDNIGHT #11 (OF 12)
BATMAN: THE BRAVE AND THE BOLD #3
JUSTICE LEAGUE OF AMERICA #31
TRINITY #43
THE WAR THAT TIME FORGOT #11 (OF 12)
WONDER WOMAN #30

Now, some of these titles I don't keep up with, and some of them I've never even touched, so there might be some small inaccuracies in the list, but my point is it ain't exacly slim pickin's.

Ok, juding these by their connection to another storyline, even if it's remote, then a few of these need to be edited.

BATMAN: CACOPHONY #3 (OF 3)
BLACK LIGHTNING: YEAR ONE #5 (OF 6)
THE MIGHTY #2
SECRET SIX #7
SOLOMON GRUNDY #1 (OF 7)
STRANGE ADVENTURES #1 (OF 8)
SUPERGIRL: COSMIC ADVENTURES IN THE EIGHTH GRADE #4
TERROR TITANS #6 (OF 6)
TRINITY #40
BATMAN CONFIDENTIAL #27
BOOSTER GOLD #18
GREEN ARROW/BLACK CANARY #18
R.E.B.E.L.S. #2
SIMON DARK #18
SUPERMAN/BATMAN #56
TITANS #11
TRINITY #41
BLACK LIGHTNING: YEAR ONE #6 (OF 6)
SUPER FRIENDS #13
TINY TITANS #14
TRINITY #42
VIGILANTE #4
BATMAN: GOTHAM AFTER MIDNIGHT #11 (OF 12)
BATMAN: THE BRAVE AND THE BOLD #3
JUSTICE LEAGUE OF AMERICA #31
TRINITY #43
THE WAR THAT TIME FORGOT #11 (OF 12)
WONDER WOMAN #30

None of the slashed ones couldn't be read by themselves, but they do reference events from another series--usually FC--that could potentially confuse readers unfamiliar with said events.

Wow, I don't know I ended up with Justice League on that list. My mistake. It's probably one of the biggest victims of excessive interconnectedness out there.
