Rapid Reviews - 10 March 2004 - Part I

Phantom #2: The second part of the story started in issue one, and as it turns out, the completion of a two-part story. This was nice, to have a complete story in two issues. There's seeds for more stories, of course. But this was a solid couple of issues. Probably best for Phantom fans, but not bad for someone like me, too. The artwork is very nice. 3 1/2 starfish

JLA #94: Manitou Raven is talking to himself. Stupidly, too. "My only hope -- to teleport to the watchtower --" Stop talking and do it already! Gah! The writing is stilted and annoying, but the plot is fairly interesting taken all together. Can't be much worse than the average Joe Kelly issue. 3 1/2 starfish

JSA #59: What an absolute jerk. I'm speaking about the villain of this issue. I wish there were fewer characters. This book always seems like a bunch of people all trying to get their couple of scenes in - fighting each other for a couple of extra pages. 3 1/2 starfish

Still to review: Powers, Way of the Rat, Fallen Angel, Green Arrow, H-E-R-O, Blackjack Tom, and Deadly Dare.
