Hil's Review: The best ongoing series in comics continues strong with the start of a new four-issue arc. Ennis is a funny guy and Kev is the perfect vehicle for humorous war stories, but even a good laugh can't keep this issue from feeling like a slight let down from the first. It's not a terrible move, but this talk-heavy issue kills much of the momentum from the premiere issue. Ennis decides to chill out just an issue into A Man Called Kev. ![]() ![]() Hil's Review: Usually a writer waits until quite a bit has happened in a story before taking a breather. What happened with Animal Man? So, what, we never get to see Bruce Wayne's journey of self-discovery? Is it possible that, despite coming out weekly, this series isn't big enough to actually tell the full story of DC's missing year? Still, so many other side plots (and untold numbers of characters) are being ignored. The strongest of 52's stories continues to be a prime reason for sticking with this series. The Steel story is intriguing, but pales against what Rucka has done writing the Question. This week focuses on the now true-to-name Steel and the further adventures of Renee Montoya and the Question. I hope it doesn't run out of gas, because so far it's been entertaining. ![]() It's been fourteen weeks, which means this series has a long time before it finishes.
