Trinity #44 - DC

I have a feeling that these Dreambound characters are going to end up someplace after this is all over. They're a bunch of characters that are just to interesting to let them just fade away. Plus, they're not really a bad bunch of kids. I think they just got caught up in all the bad stuff that was happening around them. This issue they finally realize that they don't necessarily have to be a part of all of this madness. It's more than any of them really want to deal with. As they leave they're upset that they're abandoning Tarot and SPHERE, but . . they don't know what else to do. Also this issue, our band of intrepid do-gooders, who are trying to get through to the 'gods' that are trying to remake the world, finally get them to come down to their level and listen to their arguments. The problem is . . if they abandon these god-like abilities . . they may not be able to fix what Le Fey's done to the world. They think the greater-good trumps their individual needs to have their friends back. However, I think that the faith and trust of the rest of the world is going to be the final piece that they need to truly complete the task. In the process though, they decide to spare Tomorrow Woman any further anguish. They fix it so she's no longer fading from reality. On the bad guys side of things, Kanjar-ro's recent attack at the Castle Branek, with the aid of Despero and the Crime Syndicate, has been thwarted by . . Despero. He remembers the dreams of power that Le Fey tried to give him and he's come to an agreement with her. Also she appealed to the Crime Syndicate by offering them a crack at the Trinity. And Enigma finally confronts his tormentors . . the Crime Syndicate. "I'm going to break you. All of you. Break your power over our Earth. You killed my wife and son. Almost killed my daughter, and I'll make you pay." I like this series. I enjoy the story-line. But, what'll be really interesting is to see what the effect will be on some of these characters afterwards. Also, where they're all going to land. This was another terrific issue by Kurt Busiek, Mark Bagley, Fabian Nicieza and Tom Derenick. We're almost at the end.
