Trinity #40 - DC


There's so much stuff attacking the DC Universe right now. Krona is trying to become one with the universe . . with every world-soul, with every molecule of being. Ultra-man and the Crime Syndicate are trying to break out of the anti-matter universe, and into ours. Right now the only thing holding them at bay is the Green Lantern Corps. And back on Earth, Le Fey and her crew are about to extinguish our world-soul, as she devours the Earth in a wave of creation energy, but . . . our trio of heroes, the Trinity, have returned and realized the absence of their awareness just in time. The energies that they, and Le Fey's crew throw at each other is amazing. The Trinity is actually starting to falter when they remember that their strength actually comes from the people that they mentor, that they give hope to, that believe in them. When they draw on this energy . . the tide is quickly turned. It appears that they've brought hope, and love and reason back to the world. Things are starting to go back to normal. At least Metropolis is. But they also realize that the for isn't really beaten yet. And now they're ready to take the battle to them. Meanwhile, in the back-up story, we catch up to Krona again. He's crossing paths with an earlier, more impetuous version of himself, and he's annoyed. He tries to reason with himself, but he can't. So he eliminates him. Also the Void-Hound, the techno-sentient hunter that's now inhabiting John Stewart's body, seems to be the only thing capable of standing up to Krona. Well, Krona captured him and was studying him, but now finds out that he's broken free. "Apparently it lacked patience." This is a series that I realize would be very hard to come into now . . this late in the game. Hell, there's only about 8 issues left. So, I'll try to keep everyone up to date on the story's developments and at the very least you'll all know how things end up. However, I still think that Kurt Busiek, Mark Bagley, Fabian Nicieza and Scott McDaniel have been doing a terrific job here. I'm sure the various chapters will be out in TPB soon.
