You made me forget the new idea that comic that i discovered juste after reading this chapter ... great demoniac pets !<br /><br />My hope has taken a hell of a beating but i continue to hope for a christmas comic special with great stories. <br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669531469217423923.post-26536944690541998152020-08-17T09:18:10.489-04:002020-08-17T09:18:10.489-04:00Supergirl didn't have that costume when she wo...Supergirl didn't have that costume when she worked for the DEO, but Timms does a great job regardless. I'll take it any day, and would like to see Timms have more chances at her.<br /><br />That's an amusing trio of panels, with all that chaos happening while DEO technicians, Bones and Bissette are just wandering around like nothing special is going on.<br /><br />But I thought almost everything about the issue was meant to be funny. This is easy to read as a brief comic-relief episode, and perhaps that's why it was resolved so quickly. It just couldn't be taken very seriously.<br /><br />I also wondered if it was a poke at the overwrought writing going on over in the Snyder and Tynion wing. Xanadoth, an ancient being above most others, is dealt with in 22 pages, while Perpetua is apparently going to take 22 years. And in Justice League Dark, The Lords of Order and Chaos took up a large part of a year. And then we have the 25 issue Joker War, and the 25 issue Death Metal, events.<br /><br />I wonder if Bendis has entirely given up trying to find clever ways of recapping, as he gave us a straight omniscient narrator Marvel-style plot summary - but at least it's still on top of good art. Regardless of how he does it, I like recaps for a great many reasons and hope he is never forced to stop.<br /><br />T.N.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669531469217423923.post-24311075880215413582020-08-17T08:43:20.035-04:002020-08-17T08:43:20.035-04:00I get what you mean about this story feeling like ...I get what you mean about this story feeling like it needed more room, but I doubt an extra issue would have left you happier - endings are Brian Bendis’ Kryptonite, he’s just not great at them. He enjoys the ‘getting there’ of talk and fun more than the destination. <br /><br />Kicking myself! I took a screen grab of the page seven panel with the speed effects and forgot to mention it in my review. Nice one for noting it.
