OK I wanted to like this book. I’ve loved Carlos Pacheco’s artwork since his Bishop miniseries, and I’m REALLY trying to get excited for the Final Crisis. But I just couldn’t manage this issue.
There was just too much not to like. I have NO idea when this takes place. It seems to be Pre Countdown #1 (the Trinity doesn’t know Ray Palmer is back), but post Firestorm’s induction. The Trinity mention’s Martian Manhunter is on a “secret mission” but remain utterly unconcerned that #1 he’s not back yet, and #2 that the planet the Salvation Run baddies were supposed to be is NOT where they (and the Martain Manhunter) ended up. JLA figured this out 2 issues ago and Batman just says “when J’onn’s completed his work I’m sure he’ll be open to rejoining the team.” If it wasn’t the wrong universe I’d say Batman is a Skrull.
All this and Firestorm practically saying “well I won’t make a gay joke, but…” really added up to one pretty (Pacheco’s art is the only saving grace) but craptastically bad issue.

Watching The Big Gay Sketch Show season 2 with popapathy after an evening of cosmos and pizza in the Castro when this sketch came on.
Popapthy was amused but had no idea who Elaine Stritch was so I threatened to take away his gay card and had to go on a youtube tear to demonstrate the talent of someone whose been a great old broad since 1970.
Here she is from a behind the scenes look (part 1 of 2) of the final song taped during the initial recording session for the 1970 Company Original Cast Album. Check out her pupils. She knew how to party. Well it WAS 1970.
