Part 2 of the Kid Amazo storyline. And I really like the way this one is shaping up. First of all, we have Peter Milligan on scripts. And he's really doing some interesting things with these characters. We also have Carlos D'anda on pencils. I really like his style. It kind of has the feel of the early Howard Porter JLA pencils. But then again, not really. I get the same feel, but he still has his own unique style. Basically the team knows about Frank Halloran. Now they're just trying to decide what to do about him. The team is really split about this one. On one hand they could rush in, take him and try to bring him over to their side. But, that could set him more along the course with Amazo. But if they wait, and try to let him choose for himself, he could end up making the wrong decision. But they seem to lend themselves towards the waiting approach. Frank has a run-in with Amazo. There's really some interesting "father / son" dialogue. And it seems like the mess the Amazo creates, Frank is trying to straighten up. But it also seems like the more he realizes, and uses, the full extent of his powers, the more he becoming overwhelmed by them. You know what they say, "Absolute power corrupts, absolutely!" Well that appears to be the case here so far. On the final page of this issue, it appears that he's ready and willing to accept his Amazo heritage. But with Peter writing, anything can happen. We'll have to wait until next issue to find out which way he's leaning. But all in all, this is going to be a fantastic story-line. And a definite turning point in the Amazo saga. Stay tuned for further developments.
