StormWatch: Post Earth Division - World's End #14 - WildStorm


I really only have 1 problem with this World's End story-line. And, the problem really isn't specific to any one of the books that are involved. If anything . . it encompasses all of them. My problem is this . . we have 3 main groups left behind in the post-apocalyptic society . . the Authority, WildCATS, and StormWatch. I appreciate that they've remained in their groups for comfort and support during this trying time. However, I would think that given the nature of these stories . . . these are 3 super-hero teams existing inside of a ravaged comic-book world . . that there would be something to distinguish them from one another . . other than their line-ups. Now that we're on the second issue of StormWatch I can say that it feels like Jackson King may have a different idea, or agenda, than say Jack Hawksmoor, or Zealot and Nemesis, or even Majestros. But up until now, there wasn't that much to distinguish them. All of them are trying to help, or offer aid or shelter to, the survivors. And they're all dealing with thier own issues in their various parts of the globe. Our other team, that's not fully organized yet, is Team-7. It seems that their role, or goal, is going to be to attack the problem head-on by going after Tao. I would just like to see all the teams more distinguishable from one another. The StormWatch story in this issue was brought to us by Ian Edginton and Leandro Fernandez. While the Dane story . . Team-7 . . was brought to us by Christos Gage and Brandon Badeaux. I liked both stories . . alot. I just think that we have a ways to go.
