All the crap on the internet, yet I can't find that series of Nike commercials that counted down the top five football players of all time and always ended with Al Del Greco at No. 1 except for the time he was No. 2 and the announcer broke down crying and couldn't finish.

I am seriously confused. Who is The Question in DC Comics continuity right now? Is it Renee Montoya (who was perfectly fine as a cop) or Vic Sage? And is Vic dead or not? Simply ridiculous DC never capitalized on Vic's Justice League Unlimited popularity spike.
