52 - Week Forty One - DC


Another fantastic installment of 52. Unless I miss my guess, and I think it's glaringly obvious, Renee Montoya is going to be the new Question. Anyways, this issue starts out with our lost in space heroes, Adam Strange and Starfire, fighting for their lives against a bounty hunter that is out to get them for Lady Styx. They end up beating him, but now they're in a broken down ship heading straight in to the sun. No energy left, really, except for life support. Then we find out that Charlie died on the way back to Nada Parabat. Renee was trying to take him there, she thought the mysticism there would save him. She literally made it to the doorsteps, before he passed. Now, she's trying to figure out what to do with her life. She trying to talk to Tot and Richard, but the answer is within herself. And that's not something she's prepared to face. Next Ralph, and the Helmet of Fate, go to the Haven to search T.O.Morrow's room. He discovers that he was teleported out, by some tech hidden in his security cameras. But he's really there to see professor Milo. Milo has snuck a very powerful magical item in, the Silver Wheel of Nyorlath, as part of his wheel chair. And that's really what Ralph and Fate have come for. Meanwhile, Renee has decided that she has to face her fear and look inside for some answers. The problem is . . . all she gets is questions (?). And finally just before crashing into the sun, Adam and Koriand'r are saved by a planet. A planet appearing out of nowhere. What they don't know, because they crash in to it, is that it's actually Mogo. Another great installment and only 11 issues to go till we wrap it up. But then we start countdown, the following week with issue 51. So actually we have 62 issues to go. Yippee!!
