Trinity #47 - DC

With this series nearing it's end, it seems like everything is starting to stack up against Morgaine Le Fey. Our Trinity has figured out her location . . with the help of Kanjar-Ro, "So they got my beacon, eh? There, Despero . . that will teach you to underestimate the mighty Kanjar-Ro." And with their focus being on the major threat, Krona, Le Fey seems to be under the gun by her former compatriots . . Enigma and the Crime Syndicate, Xor and the Dreambound, and I'm guessing it's only going to be a matter of time before Despero decides that he jumped in on the losing side of a battle. And that's not even mentioning all the rest of the Earth's heroes that have returned to normal . . the JSA, the JLA, the Titans, the Green Lanterns, etc., etc.. However, we also have a problem with the Worldsoul and Tarot. Because of their interference they've interrupted the process that Krona had started. He was trying to replace the Worldsoul with that of Enigma's daughter. Basically, he wants to converse with the Worldsoul to find out the secrets of the Universe. But I'm not sure I understand why he has to take the soul out to do that. Anyways, with the process interrupted in the middle, it looks like both of the souls may be stuck inside of Tarot. So . . she has 3 souls inside of her? A few more and she could have her own party. In the 2nd part of the story, the Trinity gets some help from an unexpected source, Luthor. Really, he wants them to use their newfound 'god-hood' to change the world. And of course he's got specific things in mind. But, since they pretty much dismissed him like a stray gnat, he contacts Alfred to try to get some information passed along. We don't know what that is yet, or it's intentions, but . . it seems to have an effect on the Trinity. Superman is ready to dismiss it simply because of the source, but Wonder Woman tells him to look beyond the messenger. And Batman? Batman seems to have a plan. But we don't know what it is yet. We only have a few issues to go, and it looks like we're winding down pretty fast. This was another great issue by Kurt Busiek, Mark Bagley, Fabian Nicieza and Tom Derenick.
