Trinity #7 - DC

Ok, I think things are going to start heating up here pretty fast. They're starting to see where the connections are popping up in things. Superman is trying to scan the energies of the last vestiges of the events that happened around all 3 of the Leaguers, Wonder Woman, Batman and himself . . but all he can find is residual energy . . . the events are no longer viable. But the thing that really has him concerned is that the residual energy is similar to creation energy . . the energy of the big bang. And that information only leads to one suspect . . Krona. But they've still got him trapped in the Cosmic Egg in N-Space. Right? All their scanners show that, but we find out in the back-up story that it appears Krona has indeed escaped and apparently has enough power to fool the scanners into sending back false reports. So now, besides Le Fey, Enigma and Despero . . Krona is going to be involved in all of this somehow. At the same time, Batman has seen a pattern forming in the symbols that are appearing on Wonder Woman's back. That information is concerning him because it is tying everything else together . . . the Trinity warnings, the string of Museum robberies around the country, the markings on Diana's back, and the abduction of Marguerita Covas . . . they're all Tarot related. Which isn't in and of itself an alarm burner, but . . seeing as how things are so connected . . that means that someone is behind the whole thing. Which gets Batman going in a direction. And, it looks like Le Fey and Enigma have decided to make their move this issue to recruit Despero. It seems like there's some mighty big forces stacking up against the League right now. Kurt Busiek and Mark Bagley have been doing a fantastic job on the main story of these issues. I enjoy how Kurt is unraveling everything, and I'm really happy to see Mark granting his unique vision to the DC Universe. I also like the way Kurt and Fabian Nicieza are using the back-up stories to fill in all of the gaps. In this issue, John Stewart gives Firestorm a history lesson on Krona. Which leads to us finding out that Krona is actually escaped. I also enjoyed Tom Derenick's art in the back-up. I have a feeling as this book goes along . . it's going to be the 'bible' that redefines and quantifies the DC Universe. Man . . they got their work cut out for them.
