Salvation Run #2 - DC


I'm not sure I understand the whole purpose behind this title. Are they trying to thin out the villain population? Are they trying to set up a planet that going to become the villain's new "war-world"? Or is it just a way of teaming up all these villains so they can have a little "hoe-down"? Whichever . . . it all seems kind of pointless to me. We do see HellHound sacrificed this issue. And the Joker beats Psimon senseless. Er . . . actually . . . brainless. He pummels him pretty good. But, with the newest batch of villains, they've got Luthor in the mix. So you just know that he's going to step up and take over. He's going to get everyone on a plan, and start looking for a way to get off of this god-forsaken planet. Between all the tech on the planet, and the tech in the villains armaments, they should be able to come up with something. If not, maybe they can at least invent a computer so they can have some video games to pass the time with. Like I said, I just don't really understand what the point of all of this is. They've got to know that somehow, someway, they're going to find their way back. And when they do they're either going to be looking for retribution, or going public with the injustices that have been forced on all of them. Either way, it's not going to end well. But we've got 5 more issues to see what's going to happen. And with Bill Willingham writing it . . . anything can happen. You never know . . . they might even find some Fables. Oh, and nice artwork by Sean Chen.
