So, I sat down with DK3 for the first time and crushed it in an entire sitting here are some spoilerish free observations.

-it’s a lot better than I thought! It’s no DKR, but it’s definitely a lot more focused than DK2. I’d give it a solid B-

-after the Wonder Woman interlude (chapter 2?) I’d pay almost anything for an Eduardo Risso illustrated Wonder Woman Comic.

-everytime Green Lantern shows up its weird. His entire arc is just strange and cartoonish.

-everytime the Atom shows up he’s the only recognizable DC character. It’s the best character Work in the book.

-Lara’s KR earrings, the text message conversations and the Donald Work are all evidence that Frank the Tank has still got it.

-Carrie’s Batgirl/Batwoman Neon costume is rad as hell.

-I hope with this book DC finally puts to rest: Superman/kryptonians losing fights to “people with a plan!” Trope. (This book really takes the cake in book 5)

-DC characters are GODs, GODS, GODS! It felt so stiff and out of place.

-the immortal Batman.

-kandor being free in general (although this has surprisingly been one of the better twists on that story)

-brooding Superman. the story starts with the absolute worst status quo for Clark, but ends on such a high note I am now looking forward to a Miller/Romita Superman Yr1.

SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER FINAL OBSERVATION:

Uhhhhh is Bruce in love with Carrie? That was my read and regardless of what shakes down with him I think that’s a pretty gnarly direction to take it. Didn’t love that.

Anyone else read it and liked it? Would love to get some perspective from all sides.
