52 - Week Nineteen - DC


Ok another episode of my favorite weekly drama. Skeets has made contact with Daniel Jon Carter, a direct descendent of Booster. He is trying to convince him of his heritage, and to get him to come help him with his exploration of Rip Hunter's bunker in Arizona. Meanwhile our not-so-merry space band (Animal Man, Starfire and Adam Strange) have finally made it off planet, thanks to Lobo, but have now followed him to an even stranger planet. It seems to be a planet of refugees and they have all gather because of the religion that Lobo now claims has changed him. "Archbishop Lobo of the First Celestial Church of the Triple Fish-God", at least that's what the people are calling him. I wonder if this has anything to do with those dolphins that used to float around space with him when we met him all those many years ago. ?? They learn that the giant that was pursuing them was actually from New Genesis, and they learn that this religion is centered around the Eye of Agamotto, I think that's what the Legion called it when they had to deal with it in the future. Of course I could be getting it mixed up with that other eye thing from Dr. Strange. When I figure it out, I'll let you know. In Metropolis, the Weather Wizard has shown up to take a revenge hit on a bank manager, but Wonder Girl and Supernova show up to put a stop to it. They meet, and for some reason Cassandra thinks that Supernova is actually Kon-El. Finally we get back to Rip's bunker. It seems that the last time Skeets came her, Booster wasn't entirely truthful with what he found down her. This time he has Daniel, wired for picture and sound. But when he finds out what Rip knows, and has been working on, it seems to scare Skeets. So much so that he locks Daniel it, and he is sucked into some kind of vortex. And Skeets just keeps repeating, "He knows!" Awesome book. Can't wait for next week.
