52 - Week Twenty Three - DC


Here we go again. This is proving to be a fantastic serial. By the way, Drew Johnson draws this one. Which is really cool. Anyways, we start of with Dr. Magnus being taken to an island, after his abduction last issue, filled with scientists. Both good and bad. T.O.Morrow is also there, and his reply to the Doc's question about this place is, "This is what you get when the world's maddest scientists are given an unlimited budget and encouraged to let their imaginations run wild on the finest mind-expanding narcotics available to man! Isn't it amazing?" We also catch up with Black Adam and Isis looking for Isis' brother, Osiris. They are helped by the Question and Renee Montoya, whom are also on the same trail. He's severely beaten and broken and Black Adam gives him a little of his power, much in the form of Shazam Jr.. They end the issue heading off to China. What, you say? Is that it? Well not entirely, but you should pick it up and read it. If I share all the character interaction, what is your incentive to buy it? Seriously, though, this is a great series. There's a lot of stuff going on. And a lot of stuff that's going to be affecting the DC universe in the months and years to come. If your comic shop doesn't have them I'm sure somebody on E-Bay has all 23 issues for sale. Either way, I think there's going to be a lot of future reference back to this series. Get it while you can.
