This evil group, Le Fey and Enigma and Despero, had to have some might big cajones to take on this trio. I mean think about it. These are the biggest names in the DC Universe. And not only do they want to take them on, but they want to take them down, and they want to control them. Unfortunately, this issue . . it looks like they may have accomplished the controlling part. Batman is fighting Despero, except . . . Despero isn't . . well he's . . actually we don't know what he is, but . . Batman does, and I think he's not Despero. But that doesn't really tell us who he is. But since he's not who he appears to be, Batman misjudges his abilities. Despero, or whomever, catches him off guard . . and brands him. But it appears to me that with Superman and Wonder Woman branded they only seemed to work together that much better. So what's going to happen with all 3 branded? Well . . we're going to have to wait until next issue to find out. I'm kind of thinking that Le Fey is on her own here because I'm not sure that Enigma is what he appears to be either. At the end of their story they're claiming victory. But we're going to have to wait until next issue to find out just what that means. Oh yeah, in the meantime, Firestorm went to check on Krona, physically. So now he knows that the egg and the man are missing. I'm just wondering if he's going to be able to make it back in time to warn the rest of the JLA. In the back-up story, Hawkman and Gangbuster finally find Tarot, but that's right when the Trinity's big battle is going on. Hawkman is determined to get there to help them but when trying he encounters something similar to the effects of the first Crisis. And Tarot is in agony because of something that's happening to the world's soul. Another fantastic issue by Busiek, Bagley, Nicieza and Norton. Seriously, the farther this series moves along . . the more I'm getting in to it.
