Trinity #2 - DC

The first story in this issue shows how Morgaine Le Fey and Enigma are making their presence felt in the lives of our Trinity of heroes. They aren't tipping their hands yet, as to reveal their identities to soon, but . . they are having fun with their little manipulations. There's some pretty cool ideas introduced in this installment. And, at the end of the story, we're introduced to the next baddie to come along . . Konvict and Graak. Konvict is this big Thanos / Darkseid type of character. But without all the snappy banter . . actually this guy hardly speaks at all. But he does have this little blue-haired pale monkey looking thing that rides on his shoulder, and he's Graak. He talks enough for both of them. Batman gets a JLA emergency signal from John Stewart and sees him just as Konvict is about to wallop him. The back up story shows how John got involved in this whole mess. It's nice to see the heavy-hitters in this series, after their noticeable absence from 52, and their diminished involvement in Countdown. Besides having the 3 greatest heroes of all time in it, this book is going to be worth it for the creative talent alone. Our front story is brought to us by Kurt Busiek and Mark Bagley . . as it will every week. We're only on issue #2, and these guys are on a roll already. The back story is by Kurt Busiek with Fabian Nicieza and Tom Derenick on the pencils. For DC's third installment of the weekly series format . . they've got some incredible talent lined up.
