Wow there is so much to say, the art is still unbelievable, the writing is top notch, this has to be one of my favorite "mini-series events" I've read over the last couple years... Just incredible and yet my review will be only the 2nd user review for this 6th and final issue. I think it's sad that not many people are checking this out, for some it may be that too many things happen at once and th e back and forth pre TWTC and post TWTC but again like after each issue Priest does a phenomenal job to tie up any loose ends at the end with intriguing summaries that also add to the lore of this world.

This whole story destroys any non-sense the MCU attempts to do with these characters in the cinematic world, and does what comics are suppose to do or as Stan Lee use to say comics are suppose to transcend movies not be movies. And World to Come imo accomplishes this and goes head over heels to give us a rich satisfying experience.

With great twist we find out the story is blurred because we are hearing it from an old Everett Ross retelling the saga of T'Challa and Ketena to his granddaughter. Obviously he has early forms of alzheimers which Priest beautifully illustrates through the breaking of memories and slowly revealing to the reader the correct sequence of events as they actually happened with Ross trying his best.

We witness the funeral of T'Challa which then means the new King is the Professor McGregor, the son of Zuri. The funeral does nit proceed until Everett was found and brought to the ceremony due to his spiritual and lifelong connection to T'Challa.

This is the stuff of legends and deserves a well adapted TV series that honors the source material.

I will make a video on this because I loved the series so much.

Christopher Priest, Joe Quesada you guys made something really special here and I hope overtime more people will see it that way. (Coming from me a very critical comic book reader that says alot!!!)
Excelsior!!!more

Not sure why people are crapping all over this ish, sure its very silver age and corny with baseball in hell and winning or losing determines the fate of the world but I thought it was great and funny. Interesting how Waid shows hoe prayer bas such an affect in the realms to!

Stephanie Williams continues to deliver an actual in depth and respectful telling of Diana's past and building up Trinity as the proper heir to WW. I have enjoyed William's style and imo she improves each issue and is really absorbing what Wonder Woman is and can be.

Unlike Tom King who reduced Diana to a one-worded suicidal clobberhead, Williams revitalizes the Wonder Woman I love and know by emphasizing her compassion, love, intelligence and tenacity.

Trinity and Trevor though it is a small amount of this issue continue to have great dialogue and I wish Trinity was given this more mature take than the childish slop Tom King shoveled down our throats when he made her chase multi-versal Corgis.... Williams shows a true Trinity that I envision that harkens back to her first reveal in WW #800 I believe was the issue?

If DC decides to do more WW or make a solo Trinity series PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD! FIRE TOM KING AND GIVE IT TO STEPHANIE WILLIAMS WHO RESPECTS THE CHARACTERS AND TREATS THE READERS LIKE ADULTS!

FIRE KING, MORE WILLIAMS FOR WW! more

Couldn't even bring myself to finish this slop, my god who green lit this? If you like obsessive, dykey, checkered shirt Kara than this is for you butches out there I guess. Nonetheless the writing is atrocious and feels like its trying to hard to be edgy and instead comes off like a middle schoolers fanfiction.

Much better than Supergirl #16, Mark Waid puts a great effort into the dialogue here and perfectly weaves his Action Comics story to,fit in perfectly with this event unlike Campbell's generic take.

The conversation between Zod and Lois is the best part, clearly Waid read Kneel Before Zod and already has a good knowledge of what drives Zod.

The last thing I want to do is give this a middling score such as a 5 but it has to be done. To a 9 part event that is taking over most of the mainline super comics this is a terrible introduction.

Campbell is great when her writing is retained to her own Supergirl stories but whenever she has to expand to an event or crossover she cannot seem to do any interesting concepts further tha n her own vision.

This event should have had Campbell take a break and bring Joe Casey to write and Dan McDaid for art since they made the brilliant Kneel before Zod 8 issue series. While the last two issues left much to be desired, issues 1-3 were golden and 4-6 were very good.

Nonetheless after reading that great take on Zod, this Zod feels cheap, generic, and looks terrible compared to McDaid's design of both Zod and Ursa. I hope Ursa somehow returns but that might be asking for too much as I love the dynamic between Did and Ursa.

Anyway this event feels jarring, rushed, and pointless. Zod's complexity built up from Kneel Before has been tossed out the window to reduce him to a cliche.

We should just have a dedicated solo series of Zod and his family rather than this event but hopefully,it gets better...more

mid and JW already did this Kara taking the lead thing better in House of Brainiac.

Okay I'm all for absurdity and comedy and so far this series has been pretty decent not perfect. Besides the one issue where the entire thing was drawn in a Disney-esque art style and was horrible, this one may be the second worst issue out of the series. There needs to be more than this, its not feeling so "Next Level" anymore imo.... Feels like I can find better over the top funny stuff on the i nternet without paying for something like this honestly....more

So despite this being a bit more expensive I ordered this presale to have it completed with my Poison Ivy collection not too sure if this would be anything great. I saw some headlines on YouTube from channels like Thinking Critical saying this was terrible or whatever.

When I opened it up I was hooked immediately by the art and the writing, and how many characters they fit into this wit hout it feeling to hammed up and forced. I am going to make sure to read the other parts of this event but this main part of it was just amazing!more

Just read anything with Waid as writer and Mora as artist what more is their to say?!

Ordered this presale without hesitation because I,love me some Dead shot and thank god this comic did him justice! Love how this will tie into the newest Next Level Doom Patrol which I cant wait to read!!!!

Left feeling absolutely blown away with this ending wanting more. Feeling true to the og comics of the late 90s, early 2000s with a sprinkle of the Netflix series and its own magic these 5 issues are really something special!

So believe it or not I went from totally baffled and lost in issue #1 where I decided to not ordering any presales of the next Clay face comics, to loving this issue and its atmosphere coming together more and ordering the next coming issues. This was 👍

Would love to rate this high but honestly reflecting on what I liked about this issue I cant. I literally forgot what happens and don't feel like re-reading. Very rarely do I forget my comics, just seeing the covers trigger my memories and I can remember whatever I read, not this issue sadly...

Totally bloated and lacking any,clear direction....

Based writing imo
