Darkseid War Part 1

Just bought this collection.

What am I in for? Good or bad?

It's a lot of slog punctuated by a spattering of hype OHSHI- moments that never amount to anything.

Starts off incredibly promising and then falls into unintelligible mediocrity and nonsense.

GL and Shazam tie-ins are cool though

Complete bullshit. I was really hyped. After Forever Evil. I thought this could be excelent. But it wasn't. Don't want to spoil anything. But don't get to like any new character or character version.

this + good art

Those tie-ins were the only good thing about this. Too bad Shazam didn't get to use what he gained in his tie-in afterwards.

Johns can't do cosmic that isn't rainbow or LOSH cosmic.

It's a comic for men who like comics. If it's not your speed stick to gweenpool or something.

Yes.

Starts off good and hype but faded out in the stretch and got lost in the Rebirth hoopla.

Methinks Johns wore too many hats to make the story good. tv and movies are demanding, especially after BVS shit its pants.

His whole JL run has been uneven. I don't thinks its shit and I've seen worse JL runs but if somebody asks me to name the best works of Geoff Johns I wouldn't put his JL run at the top of the list.

Throne of Atlantis to Amazo Virus were the high points

and where the fuck is Captain Cold?

Fabok's art is based as fuck

its okay
the character work with mister miracle and wonder woman is decent
story flatlines and picks back up frequently in that pattern

it was okay but I think I was expecting too much, I was kind of let down

make sure to read the one shot tie ins though, the GL and Shazam ones were great

MEH, Johns can't write a good Darkseid nor Anti Monitor (though AM has never been a good character) and he never will be able to. Grail was bad and it has an unsatisfying conclusion for the Earth-3 counterparts.

Johns dropped the Captain Cold and Rogues rob Luthor subplot. This still makes me upset.

Some the tie ins were alright, but the rest was boring as fuck.

Johns really just phoned it in for this one, but I can't figure out why.

Starts strong, ends terribly. You should have asked us first.

Got steadily better and then got steadily worse
By the last two or three issues I hated it
Buying all three(?) trades is definitely a waste of your money

I didn't like the climax

Great story, ends kinda lame and with wasted potential though

>Great story
End yourself.
