It's finally the end of Bendis' run on the Justice League and with that, we're going to conclude our Xanadoth story, where previously I thought that Bendis would use this time to really flesh out this new villain that was the original Lord of Chaos because where the character was introduced in his Superman run it really didn't seem like there was enough time to make this character memorable. Well, I was wrong and instead of that, we have Xanadoth taking possession of Black Adam, saying she has a connection with Madame Xanadu, while Nabu makes us realize that like always in Bendis books, Naomi is the most important character there is. Let's jump into this issue and see how this story and run concludes. Let's check it out.
It's the Titans United finale to what I'm calling a Hypertime story that finds the cast of the Titans HBO show put into comics with a story that has it all..... and I do mean all. We've got people who have been turned into sleeper agents with Titan powers, we have Tamaran invading Earth, we had Superboy turn evil and go by his Hypertime name of Black Zero and at the end of the previous issue, we learned that we also have the Citadel coming to Earth to take it over as well. Let's jump into this finale and see if all these loose threads can be pulled tight and have this seven-issue mini feel like it mattered by the end. Let's check it out.
The War For Earth-3 continues with part 3 as we jump into The Flash and see how our fastest man alive fits into the grand scheme of Amanda Waller's invasion and takeover of the world of the Crime Syndicate. In our previous issue, we had some of our members of the Suicide Squad like Culebra and Talon acting as double agents against Amanda Waller, while Rick Flag's Suicide Squad was actively trying to bring her down and to this end, we saw Ambush Bug, Peacemaker and Superwoman crushed in Ultraman's Fortress of Solitude by Black Siren and Johnny Quick when they tried to retrieve the Phantom Zone projector so that they could hopefully even the playing field against The Wall by taking Ultraman out of the equation. Let's jump into this issue and see if any of these story threads continue as the war wages on. Let's check it out.
