YMMV / Unstoppable Doom Patrol

• Ass Pull: Monsieur Mallah's betrayal of his lover the Brain is justified by Mallah admitting that their relationship is toxic, which was never indicated before and supported only by the Brain abruptly insulting Mallah by boasting he'd be a worthless animal without him.
• Audience-Alienating Ending: The few readers who enjoyed the comic in spite of its flaws took great exception with the epilogue showing the Batwoman Who Laughs (last seen in Justice League Incarnate) having razed Danny the Street, not only due to ending the miniseries on the note of yet another beloved Doom Patrol character getting shafted, but also because of fans generally being sick to death of the Batman Who Laughs and characters inspired by him in addition to wishing the Batwoman Who Laughs would just be returned to being Batman's Earth-11 counterpart instead of continuing to be corrupted.
• Broken Base: Dennis Culver insisting that Dorothy Spinner and Coagula are still deceased, deliberately ignoring their appearances in DC Pride 2022, has been met with a lot of complaints. While a few fans have argued about the validity of their cameos in that anthology, others pointed out Kate appeared twice in two completely different stories set in the present day. The DC Book Of Pride even listed Alysia Yeoh as one of Kate's allies, confirming the story where they met was canon in the modern setting. It hasn't helped Culver's case that he's continued to use Dorothy and Kate's imagery to haunt Robotman, showing Cliff still angsting over their deaths in both this series and in Knight Terrors. That Culver's apparent decision to keep implying the two characters are dead for no reason than to make Cliff sad about them has been compared to John Arcudi's decision to kill them off in the 2003 series and met with the exact same criticisms. It's especially glaring in Kate's case, because this is literally the first time in the twenty years since Arcudi killed her off that she's been mentioned in a new Doom Patrol comic and Culver's announcement that he still considered her dead was posted only a couple of days before her creator Rachel Pollack passed away (which makes her memorial page honestly come across as a bit disingenuous).
• Harsher in Hindsight: Dennis Culver announcing that Kate and Dorothy would still be considered dead in this comic happened just a few days before Rachel Pollack herself (whose run introduced Kate and gave Dorothy more prominence than she had in Grant Morrison's run) passed away.
• He's Just Hiding: Readers are insisting Kate and Dorothy are still alive as they appeared in DC Pride 2022, arguing Cliff just doesn't know they aren't dead anymore. Dorothy's dead body is shown in the sixth issue, confirming she is indeed still dead.
• Hilarious in Hindsight: Metagen's founder and CEO Brian McClane is an obvious expy of Twitter CEO Elon Musk. A few weeks before McClane debuted in issue 5, Musk changed Twitter's logo from the familiar blue bird into a stylized X, which looks eerily similar to Metagen's helix logo.
• Narm: The second issue features Cliff going to Dorothy Spinner's grave, in what was clearly meant to be a somber moment. Unfortunately, readers have a hard time taking it seriously when remembering DC Pride 2022 featured Dorothy and Kate Godwin alive and well at a Metropolis Pride parade, with Kate later appearing at a transgender rights conference in Gotham City alongside Alysia Yeoh. It makes the scene read more as if no one told the current team that Dorothy's alive again, making it look like Cliff's talking to an empty grave. The sixth issue reveals Dorothy's grave wasn't empty, confirming she is indeed still dead.
• Overshadowed by Controversy: Longtime fans have repeatedly expressed annoyance with this series, finding it hard to enjoy the story after Culver's insistence, both on his Substack account and in the comic itself, about Coagula and Dorothy Spinner still being dead and disregarding their resurrections in DC Pride 2022. Especially with the knowledge that Culver and DC chose to confirm their deceased status a few days before Rachel Pollack died in April 2023, when it was well known for over a year that she was battling lymphoma.
• They Wasted a Perfectly Good Character: While it's been noted fans were already annoyed at Coagula and Dorothy still being considered dead despite their resurrection in DC Pride 2022, that annoyance grew when it turned out the real reason why Culver kept Dorothy dead was to use her dead body as a means to channel the Candlemaker's power into General Immortus. Some have asked why Dorothy had to remain dead for this to happen.
• Unexpected Character: Issue 6 features a ton of old Doom Patrol villains, including Brotherhood of Evil mainstays like Warp, Houngan, and Plasmus alongside lesser-known foes like Goldilocks and The Quiz, and even throws in Lady Tiger Fist (one of Chris Burnham's creations from Batman Incorporated) for good measure. And then the issue ends with the return of Candlemaker, who hasn't appeared in any comics since Morrison's run.
• Unintentionally Unsympathetic: The Doom Patrol's clashes with Batman, Kyle Rayner and Guy Gardner have them calling out the heroes for not doing enough to look out for metahumans, but they come off as unreasonable assholes due to insulting the Justice League for only having one metahuman member (the Flash, who they speak ill of due to his super speed enabling him to run away from his oppressors) and dismissing most of the League as not being true allies towards metahumans and being incapable of understanding metahumans' problems of being discriminated against on the basis of instead being aliens, divine beings or ordinary humans (which makes the Patrol look like the prejudiced ones) as well as the narrative being transparently biased towards making the reader side with the Doom Patrol by painting Batman and the Green Lanterns as authoritarian bullies who are tone-deaf towards the problems faced by metahumans and disregarding that many of the super-powered people Batman and the Green Lanterns deal with are met with severe retribution not because they're deformed outcasts, but because they're deliberate and unapologetic menaces who deserve to be locked up to keep them from harming innocents. This is especially egregious in regards to the Patrol's clash with the Green Lanterns, as Kyle Rayner's first love interest Alexandra DeWitt was killed by a super-powered being (Captain Atom's Evil Counterpart Major Force, who not only showed no remorse for doing the deed, but even enjoyed that what he did caused Kyle no small amount of pain and grief).
