* [[Captain Carrot and His Amazing Zoo Crew (Comic Book)|Captain Carrot and His Amazing Zoo Crew]] seemed safe as long as they were in [[Comic Book Limbo]]. Unfortunately, when they were brought back in the mid 2000's, their [[Animal Superheroes]] world had to become darker to reflect the [[Darker and Edgier]] mainstream DC Universe. As a result, Little Cheese was [[Dropped a Bridge on Him|murdered]], and then came the ''Captain Carrot And the Final Ark'' mini-series. Their world had become uninhabitable, so Captain Carrot and the Zoo Crew, and the other anthropormorphic animal superheroes arranged for an ark to take them to the Justa Lotta Animals' world, Earth C-Minus. However, because of a mishap, not only did they end up in the 'main' DC universe Earth, but they were also turned into non-anthropomorphic animals who could not communicate with [[Superman]] and the [[Justice League]]. The mini-series ends with them stuck this way, and the DC heroes not knowing why this ship appeared filled with animals.

** The whole ending seemed to be DC's [[Take That]] at those requesting the return of the Zoo Crew, and their way of telling them that funny animal superheroes are [[Deader Than Disco]] and have no place in the [[Sliding Scale of Idealism vs. Cynicism|new, more cynical DC Universe]].

*** Actually, [[Word of God]] (if DC is to be believed) was that the Zoo Crew's fate was supposed to spur fans into demanding their return. What.
