Firestorm #32 - DC


Ok, this is kind of a wrap up issue. The sad news is that this is the last issue of Stuart Moore and Jamal Igle's. So the try to wrap everything up with this issue, while still leaving a few things up in the air for the future. Tokomak is gone. But on his way out the door, he opened another one by telling Jason, "I know why your Firestorm. And you'll never know." The Pionic Man and the last dollie, Last Doll, are both trying to live a quieter life and are looking for an apartment to share. Mikhail is going to stay in New York. It appears his wife, in Russia, has left him. And Jason and Gehenna are trying to get things back on track. We still have some unresolved issues with Lorraine, I think she needs her own title, and the Professor is always going to be a complicated individual. But it's good to see that he's more an integral part of the Firestorm matrix now, than he was in the past. Also, it looks like Jason's mom and dad are gonna try to work things out too. And that, for the most part closes up all the previous story lines. Now we have some more bad news. The next issue of Firestorm won't hit the stands until the week of the 28th. I assume to give the new creative team time to dig in. The good news is that the new team consists of Dwayne McDuffie, Dan Jurgen and Ken Lashley. And, we start out with a story about Firestorm and the New Gods.
