Wow....what a way to start out the big summer event!
I almost fell asleep i was so enamored.......I had been looking forward to this...really i had....but it lost me after the GL's showing up to play policeman.....ill give it 2 more issues...hope it gets better...but so far with just this issue it kind of killed my hopes for Crisis...it felt like i was reading "Coutdown to Something Other Than Final Crisis"...

After reading everyone elses comments about this issue, I have to say I'm even more uncertain as to whether I'll keep buying it or not.  Honestly I'm leaning more toward the not side of things right now, as the whole attitude toward final crisis to me is starting to feel like an over hyped under delivering event.  I'll flip through issue #2 for sure, but I'll be surprised if I continue following this event.

Ermmm,did you guys pick up the right comic??

Final Crisis. Big event of the summer?

This one right?....



Don't think Final Crisis: Legion of Three Worlds is out for a couple months yet, no?

British humour fails again

I was trying to allude that Final Crisis by Morrison is not the main event and that the 'main' Final Crisis event will in fact be the Johns and Perez Final Crisis Legion of 3 Worlds mini.

Waaaay too subtle for me. Although something tells me that there won't really be any 'Final Crisis" this Summer, hard as it may be to believe.

Yeah, ya have to  love this paragraph from the above review:

As promised "Final Crisis" really does begin with Anthro, DC's "first boy." It not only begins with Anthro, but the first seven pages of issue #1 take place in the Stone Age, with nary a word spoken--just a lot of grunts from the cavemen. Except for Metron, of course, who appears, speaks (telepathically, one presumes), and gives Anthro the gift of fire. "Here is knowledge," says Metron, as his finger creates the spark.

 

SEVEN PAGES???????????????? We need seven pages to show this? The more I think about this issue, the more dissapointed I become.

As always...you guys are about as fairweather as Los Angeles sports fans...

I'm sorry, did any of you read Seven Soldiers?

Do you not remember the Mister Miracle portion of that story? Darksied was in semi-human guise...and he was holder of the Anti-life equation..

Spoiler alert>>>>>>>>

All of this comes and quells from not only 52, but also Countdown and The Seven-Soldiers of Victory saga...There are parts of those storylines that hold a place in there...And the Manhunter being killed....How can this not be huge? Come on people, THAT'S J'ONN J'ONZZ!The MARTIAN MANHUNTER! Killed at the behest of some second rate yahoo! Libra's setting a precedent...if he can take out the Manhunter, who the hell is next?  You guys are being set up for something..Morrison is setting this up for ticking off fans bigtime..I say give it the chance it warrants...I'm on for the full ride..Because at least the damn devil didn't show up and say "POOF" there goes 20 years of history....
