In the previous issue, Red Tornado Lois and Evil-Superman took an awkward trip to Smallville, Val-Zod demonstrated his pacifism by being nothing more than a Kryptonian-shield in a fight, oh and Batman blew up half of Gotham along with the Bat-cave.  Superman’s path of destruction may have been tempered by Lois’ return from the dead,…

Superman has come face-to-face with not only his Kryptonian brethren, but also his dead wife, Lois Lane, who’s been reanimated in the body of Red Tornado.  Green Lantern has returned from the grave, the remnants of the World’s Army are gathering on Amazonia, and Batman is with the remaining Wonders busy underneath Gotham City plotting…

It’s been two weeks on Earth 2 since the return of Superman and the death of Steppenwolf, and we are finally treated to the revival that’s been hinted at for several issues now.  If you can’t tell from the cover: Green Lantern’s back!  And there’s several fantastically-drawn pages thanks to Nikola and Trevor Scott, who…

If you haven’t read Earth 2 Annual #2 or the respective review, I highly suggest you do so before continuing further. Anyway, I don’t know if I’ve seen a more brutal opening to a comic issue in the New 52, but the first few pages of “The Kryptonian, Part One” show us just how impactful…

We are still dealing with the fallout of Superman’s return, but the Wonders have regrouped and now have perhaps the only two weapons that can be used against the returned Kryptonian.  Batman’s Kryptonite and now another Kryptonian who was apparently being held by Terry Sloan seem to be the only viable options for defeating The…

Superman has left the scene of the previous battle at the Arkham Base, and the remaining Wonders may have a chance to collect themselves before launching a counterattack.  They are interrupted, however, by hordes of Parademons bearing down on them from the sky.  The majority of the action in “The Dark Ages, Part 3” takes…

With Superman and Batman’s return to Earth 2, the world now needs the joint power of all the Wonders to repel the forces of Apokolips.  In the opening chapter of “The Dark Ages” arc, Tom Taylor has brought his talent from Injustice: Gods Among Us to showcase another tale of Superman turning on his adopted…

Earth 2 could not have picked a better writer to replace James Robinson, and I’d like to think the reveal created by Robinson at the end of last issue was made specifically to introduce Injustice: Gods Among Us’ Tom Taylor.  If you haven’t read “To The Victor…” please, please, do so immediately.  Ok, now that…

Wow.  When Earth 2 has finished its run, regardless of how long or short it may be, I think I’ll look back on “To The Victor…” as the point where the series succeeded or failed.  So much was done in this issue, both good and bad, that really encompass the spirit of Earth 2 so…

Now that’s what I’m talking about!  This is the issue that I was dying for last time around, which I guess makes it all the more sweet.  Just look at that cover; if there’s one thing Earth 2 has gotten right on a consistent basis, it’s the greatness of their covers.  “Battle Cry” has my…

Well this issue completely threw me for a loop going forward in the Earth 2 universe, and I think “1,370°C” highlights everything I dislike in this series.  It hurts me for to say it, because for me the last two issues were the best back-to-back issues since the very first two.  This feels more like…

In the previous issue of Earth 2, Khalid Ben-Hassin fully accepted his role as Doctor Fate, and set out with Flash to defeat the evil sorcerer Wotan.  Wotan is holding Jay’s mother as a hostage, waiting for Khalid to deliver him the power of Nabu’s helmet, but Fate and Flash have other plans in mind.…

Man, that’s a great cover.  Just take a minute and appreciate it.  It’s our first look at Earth 2’s Doctor Fate, and he looks fantastic.  From the powerful and bright beams of light, to the Egyptian hieroglyphics and imagery in the background, to Fate himself, this cover alone sold me on buying this book.  This…

The Atom, the Sandmen, and members of the World’s Army have figured out the Jay Garrick is Flash thanks to a cell phone he dropped at Mercury’s crash site, which could lead to some interesting developments going forward.  Now, however, Jay and Khalid Ben-Hassin (Doctor Fate) face a more immediate threat. “The Tower of Fate”…

We were treated to the return of Steppenwolf and Fury last time we visited Earth 2, but this issue is all about the Wonders and their lives following the battle against Grundy.  Going back two issues, Green Lantern and Hawkgirl were not on the best of terms after Kendra speared a picture of Alan and…

Following the defeat of Grundy at the hands of the New Wonders, the previous issue of Earth 2 dealt with the events following the birth of the world’s newest heroes.  Alan Scott is mourning the loss of his boyfriend, Sam, who died in a fiery explosion that consumed the train the two were travelling in. …
