Unknown Comic Reviews

Barbara's brother is on the loose, and it's time he got what's coming to him: a stern lecture! And there's more where that came from for the Commissioner, too! When Batgirl scolds, you know you've messed up.

As a whole, this issue of Damage seems to have found a bit of footing, it's just a bit too late in the lifespan of this series for anyone to really bother at this point.  If Damage was able to get to Monster Rock earlier in its run, to give this book more of a purpose moving forward, it would have been very good for the characterization of Ethan. At the least, you can anticipate a solid original send-off for Ethan/Damage, which is something I wouldn't have said before this final arc began.

Learning just enough about the Hero Dial to definitively say we know nothing, this issue is all about possibilities. The setting in place, it is now up to the players to perform, and the readers to read. And to buy. The readers have to do that, too.

If you hate superheroes, DC Comics characters, and comic books, then this series is for you.

An awesome-looking, feelgood issue that finally puts the team together in a way that doesn't seem temporary or tenuous. But is it worth the fourteen issues and forty-two dollars it took to get here? I guess we'll find out next month!
