Black Canary - Wedding Planner #1 - DC


I only have 1 complaint about this book. I'm not a big fan of books that are done by 2 or 3 different artist. Sometimes I understand it, because they do flashback stories, or whatever. But for a regular book, or story, I just don't understand it. For example this story has 3 different artists. Lee Ferguson and Karl Story do the art on pages 1,2,4,5,7,8,10,11,13-15,17,18,20-22. Don't ask me why. That's what it says in the credits. Then Christine Norrie does the art on pages 3,6,9,12,16,19. That's like having 2 different directors doing the same movie. After they're both done with their own individual versions of that movie, you cut and paste and combine it all together. Simple, huh? Not! Now the pages that Christine did were full pages. So they were pretty easy to pick out. But they weren't really essential to the story. If you completely deleted them, the story would've been exactly the same. Basically the story is about Dinah going through all the pre-wedding stuff . . . planning, etc . . . while she's still performing her Black Canary duties. Ollie is trying to do everything he can to help, but he usually ends up being in the way. So the story ends up with the 2 of them jumping into a warehouse after some bad guys, and talking about the wedding. Dinah says, "I've got it all under control, okay? . . . For now . . . let's play wedding crashers!" And of course they're both smiling from ear to ear. If nothing else, this should prove to be an interesting union. The JLA Wedding Special is the next step. See you there.
