I spend a lot of time and money buying and reading comics. Most of the time I'm happy with my choices, sometimes not. I'm hoping,that with my reviews on what I've read, I might spare someone else dissapointment. I'll read anything, but I can't afford everything. If there's something you'd like for me to read, let me know. If you take the time to read this, please, take the time to let me know what you think. I may not agree with you, or you may not agree with me. But, so what. That's life.

Booster Gold #14 -DC
I still think this book has a lot of character and potential. It's not quite the same without Geoff Johns and Dan Jurgens, but . . . I'm sure Rick Remender and Pat Ollife will still do it justice. Right off the bat, I'd have to say that Pat did a tremendous job with the art on this book. Of course it doesn't hurt to have Jerry Ordway as your inker, but still . . the book had a good look and feel to it. I thought this particular story, with Chronos and Lady Chronos was a bit . . confusing. But it still stays within the parameters of the type of story this book is trying to bring to us. Like I've said before, there's just so many questions and 'what if?' type of things that you just can't help but asking your self during these time travel stories. From start to finish, Booster and Lady Chronos pretty much tie everything up, but . . to me, it just felt like everything was kind of glossed over. I know it's a little tougher to get into the details with one of these stories because every little thing can open a whole new can of worms. But, it just didn't feel as detailed as one of Geoff's stories. And I know . . I'm sorry! It's not really fair to compare to Geoff. Those are some pretty big shoes to fill, he was here through the beginning of this book, so . . it's natural. I really hope that Rick gets his own feel for things here. I like Booster's character, and I absolutely love the potential that this book has. I just hope that it's realized. Like I said, this story just felt like a lot of stuff was glossed over. And maybe that was necessary to wrap up the story within this issue. I was just a little disappointed. But next issue starts a new story-arc, so . . I guess we'll see what happens then.
