Rapid Reviews - 8 Jan 2003 - Part III


Green Arrow #20: Pretty good. Nice misdirection in the title and the cover, not to mention some of the thought balloons of GA. Hester's artwork is beginning to grow on me. I'm enjoying the Archer's Quest, and I'm looking forward to seeing the ending. 3 1/2 starfish.

Powers #27: I'm still liking the dark side of being part of a superteam. I thought the parody of a classic comic with typical Bendis dialogue worked well to open the book. It was a nice contrast with the darker tone of the rest of the book, yet still uniquely Bendis. 4 starfish.

Way of the Rat #9: I've been a bit disappointed with the last few issues. Too much fighting, not enough story. This one had a lot of fighting, yes, but also a major development matures into the story. I liked it. 3 1/2 starfish.

Next week: Green Lantern, Power Company, and Spectre.
