Well it appears that with this issue all of creation has been changed . . or at least all of creation in the DC Universe. Last issue we saw that Despero had tagged Batman. So now Morgaine can finish her spell. When she's going through the motions, I kind of thought that she was going to have the 3 of them trade places with Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman. But I think it was more about a transfer of power. Not necessarily the power of the heroes, but of the power that they represent . . as the Trinity. It's all about the 'keystones' that we found out about back in issue #8. This universe is the 'keystone' to the multi-verse. Earth is the 'keystone' to this universe, and the Trinity is the 'keystone' to Earth. And all they needed to transfer all of that power to themselves was to brand the Trinity to put them under their control, and . . . the cosmic egg. Yes the same cosmic egg that Krona is trapped inside of. I'm kind of wondering how Krona is going to feel about all of this. He's a pretty ambitious guy himself . . I think he may see these 3 as a threat. At the end of the main story we see their power unleashed across the globe. It looks like it's ripping it apart at the seams. However, as we find out in the back-up story, I think they've just remade the world in their image. Or, at the very least, what the world would be like without the influence of the Trinity. This was another fantastic chapter in this great story by Kurt Busiek and Mark Bagley. These guys have got to be in heaven. To be given the chance to write and draw such an important story in the DC Universe . . the most important, right now . . . it's got to be every comic fans dream. Also, they're both doing a fantastic job. I also enjoyed Kurt, Fabian and Scott McDaniel's story of Honor and Justice in the back-up tale. Konvict is back. Not that he ever went away, but now . . he's no longer a prisoner. He's gets out just in time to see the world remade. Next issue should be very interesting.
