I thought this was a pretty decent first issue. I thought that Jimmy Palmiotti and Justin Gray did a decent job with the story. We have a bit of a mystery here. Obviously, if this is Terra, this would be the third one. At the end of the book, after taking quite a beating with some lava, Power Girl takes her to Doctor Midnight to get her checked out. After examining her blood he cross references her DNA. " . . with the samples I have from the recently deceased Tara Markova . . . they're a perfect genetic match." How can that be? But really, that's just the beginning of the mystery. This Terra seems to be much more comfortable with the civilizations living beneath the Earth's crust, than with those on the surface. During the course of this story she talks about at least 4 different groups of being that live beneath the surface. She talks about them as if they were her neighbors or something. Another question I have is that in the recent issue of the Terror Titans, we see that Terra is partaking in the fights, which means she must be a prisoner. So does this series take place before or after that story? Amanda Conner does the pencils for this issue. And actually, it was ok. I'm not always thrilled with her work, but . . I kind of liked what she did with this story. This issue we're basically just keeping up with the action. She seems to be a very busy girl. We don't get a whole lot of background. But I'm sure that'll be coming in the next issue or 2. I'm interested to see how they're going to explain all of this. Good luck!
