2 on Earth 2 #7 reviewLast time in Earth 2, the combined strength of the New Wonders: Green Lantern, Hawkgirl, Flash, and The Atom was enough to overcome the life-decaying powers of Grundy and The Grey. Many questions were raised by the time Grundy was sent Wheatley-style to the Moon. A World Army has appeared on the scene, and it’s…
Green Lantern, Flash, Hawkgirl, and The Atom were battling the life-sapping powers of Grundy and The Grey last time we saw our Wonders, and the fight rages on in “End Times.” After saving The Atom from the clutches of Grundy, all the Wonders but Lantern take the battle to Grundy while Alan Scott delves into…
The Wonders of Earth 2 are facing off with their first true test as heroes, with the destructive force of Grundy sapping Washington, DC of all life. Our heroes converged in the shadows of the ruined Capital Building, with Flash, Green Lantern, and Hawkgirl joining forces to combat the encroaching pestilence brought about by The…
Lobo has taken control of Starfire’s ship, and it’s up to Red Hood and the Outlaws to stop him from unleashing an extinction-event alien nanotech probe nightmare on planet Earth in “The Big Picture: The Conclusion.” Quick side note, this short arc made me remember that Justice League Unlimited episode, “Dark Heart,” where the League…
Red Hood and the Outlaws has always been a fringe title with implications that frequently have nothing to do with Bruce Wayne or any member of the Bat-family and their crusade for justice. This allows Jason Todd, Roy Harper, and Kori to be placed in situations where someone like Nightwing or Batgirl would never be,…
Following last month’s one-shot, Red Hood and the Outlaws jumps into its next arc with “The Big Picture, Part One.” Along with introducing a new story, this issue features a new cast of creators featuring Will Pfeifer as writer and Rafa Sandoval, Paul Neary, and Jordi Tarragona as artists. I was slightly upset that this…
Another issue, another set of heroes introduced. This seems to be a theme of Earth 2 and I’m certainly not complaining. The only problem I can see coming from this would be an inability to give the proper time each hero needs in order to grow and develop. It would also be a shame if…
Last issue we saw the birth of Earth 2’s Flash when Jay Garrick was imbued with the power of super-speed. Alan Scott and his boyfriend Sam were also caught in a massive explosion aboard a Hong Kong bullet train. Oh, and we met Hawkgirl! So a lot has happened. In “Jade Knight” we slow down…
With the deaths of The Trinity of Wonders in the Apokolips War, the Earth has gone five years without heroes. Since then, the world has been slowly recovering, using the memories of Superman, Wonder Woman, and Batman as inspirations to form a peaceful planet. It is with this in mind that we enter into a…
A one-shot issue with emotional depth, character development, a resolved storyline, AND some good action sequences all in one? This is certainly a good sign for Red Hood and the Outlaws going forward if this is the quality of work that will be featured in the coming issues. Having finished off the All-Caste and the…
I’ve felt that the last year has been lost in the convoluted mysticism of the All-Caste, the Untitled, and most recently the League of Assassins has held back Red Hood and the Outlaws. That seems to have blissfully come to an end with “The Rage of Ra’s al Ghul.” Unclear plot lines, unresolved issues, and…
Few things have so bluntly and unrelentingly punched me in the face like the first issue of Earth 2. “The Price of Victory” offers us a story we have seen numerous times before: the Parademons of Apokolips are invading a war-torn Earth, and it is up to a valiant group of the universe’s greatest heroes to…
It’s been a while since we’ve touched Red Hood and the Outlaws, so let’s do a quick recap. Jason Todd, Starfire, and Arsenal are battling Ra’s al Ghul and the League of Assassins at the climax of the arc that has followed an amnesiac Jason taking over as head of the assassins. For some reason,…
Welcome to the first issue of Justice League 3000, and if the story lives up to the premise, I have a feeling that this is going to be an awesome ride. A brief overview for those who have either not been following closely or simply have not yet heard of this title: Justice League 3000…
