It looks like we're finally going to get to see Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman again. Well . . not this issue, but next. The Machinists have attacked the people on this pilgrimage. But, our band of heroes, now that they've starting remembering bits and pieces of who they really are, have come to their rescue. The Machinist really don't have a chance. After the battle, as the leaders move on with their story, they tell of Kellel taking a bride . . . Luai. After his death he decided that he wanted to be a man rather than a god. "And thus did the godwar become inevitable." Which really stirs a lot of emotions in Lois. Basically, according to this story, she feels like she broke Superman. Which makes her begin to scream out for Clark. That's when the attention of the 3 of them is made. "We have heard enough. We will deal with the outworlders now." In the back-up story, we get the history of Enigma. Well, not from the beginning, but after the deaths of his family members when he becomes obsessed with bringing them back to life. He's put his daughters essence into a SPHERE, but he may have gotten it a little to close to accurate. He's claiming to be doing all of this to 'fix' his world, the anti-matter world of the Crime Syndicate. But his daughter, Steph, isn't willing to go along with the loss of life that is occurring for him to be enabled his dreams. In Le Fey's evil Trinity, I knew he was going to be the weak spot. I knew he was going to be the one to ultimately betray her and bring her down. This story into his psyche kind of lays the groundwork for that betrayal. I can't wait. As usual, this book is brought to us by Kurt Busiek, Mark Bagley, Fabian Nicieza and Mike Norton. And this series of covers is brought to us by the indomitable Shane Davis. Man . . that guys got talent. I hope DC can hang on to him.
