Wonder Woman versus…Booster Gold?! Diana finds out the hard way that Booster can be a formidable opponent when his back’s against the wall. Of course, being the prime suspect in a superhero massacre and exposing a secret trauma hospital for metahumans will do just that. Meanwhile, Batman and the Flash combine their detective skills to investigate what went awry at Sanctuary and uncover a serious glitch in the system—not to mention an explosive, spoiler-ific secret!

I Want To Hate This Series...

I Want To Hate This Series...
...and I really should hate this series. It's making the heroes I've loved since childhood seem all too human with the same vulnerabilities and depth of feeling that we mere mortals outside of the DC Universe all share. They're killing off my all-time favorite character in a future issue. Now would seem like the time to give up and turn my back on the whole thing and just rely on back issues for my entertainment. But I can't. This is masterful storytelling at it's very finest. You might not like what's happening but you can't turn away from the most compelling read (for me, at least) in a very long time. The scene between Batgirl and Harley Quinn will rip your heart to shreds... and then put it back together again. I can't wait for the next installment.

4.0 out of 5 stars Stunning Art and Wonderful Story!
Reviewed in the United States on January 2, 2019

Ok, the art is so good in this series...I can barely express how amazing this book just LOOKS! I only marked 4 stars because the artist is obsessed with the female character's butts. It's wonderfully drawn, but I don't need to see sexy butts every page when I'm reading emotional stories haha.

The story has been phenomenal since issue 1, and I love the interviews we get throughout. This story is very intimate. It feels real! The characters are all so well written, it is insane and refreshing :)

My oh my, what will the super heroes do? I love seeing the heroes as vulnerable beings. But, something is amiss, I can't wait to find out what these new developments lead.

3.0 out of 5 stars No Idea Where This Is Going
Reviewed in the United States on January 7, 2019
During one of the confessions at Sanctuary, Black Canary says, ‘Ah, $%@# this.’, walks away and we get six panels of nothing more than the Sanctuary logo. If I didn’t have so much respect for Tom King as a writer I’d follow Black Canary out the door. We’re now officially 44% into the limited series and I still have no idea what the heck King is going for. I love to go on IGN and read the latest slobbering review and then scroll down to the comments which then eviscerate the story. There seems to be a serious disconnect between professional reviewers and readers, but that’s nothing new.

At one point in the story, Batgirl tracks down Harley Quinn and they get into a four-page fight. They fight, they talk and then they embrace. I try to avoid stories with Quinn because I don’t like the character but I’ve never seen her shown as sympathetic. Regardless of whether she committed the murders at Sanctuary, Harley Quinn is a bad person who does bad things. Am I supposed to find this tender moment endearing? This is a 24 page comic, this section took up nearly 17% of the story and that doesn’t include a whole page where Batgirl shows off a couple scars and the final page of Batgirl and Harley dramatically wandering around the city. The amount of padding in all of these issues is just ridiculous and I’m not saying a methodical pace can’t work. Doomsday Clock is moving slowly but I still find it compelling.

I think the reason I don’t find any of this compelling is that I don’t have any faith in the story itself. It’s a murder mystery except my guess is these heroes weren’t actually killed. If you ask me whether it was Booster Gold or Harley Quinn who committed the crime (or non crime) my guess would be neither. I don’t even believe that this story fits into the regular DCU continuity. A lot of people had problems with Identity Crisis but it was an actual murder with a real murderer. Maybe I’ll be proven wrong, but I just don’t believe that Roy Harper, Wally West and Poison Ivy died in the most inglorious way possible. Even if Tom King is true to his word and they really truly are dead his execution is done so poorly that few comic books fans would believe it were so.

I just cannot imagine what kind of plot swerve could save this story. It probably involves some kind of screw up by the big three in setting up Sanctuary and maybe the AI became sentient. We already know it’s capable of creating believable replicants so maybe it made a replicant of Harley or Booster and used them to commit the murders. It’s pretty well confirmed that there was a screw up in the design since the videos were are supposed to be entirely deleted and yet are now being sent to Lois Lane. Despite IGN and other professional reviewers fawning over Heroes in Crisis I do think the damage may be irreparable since few people seem to care who the murderer is if there even was a murder. The 38% drop off in sales from issue 1 to 2 showed an undeniable lack of interest and issue 3 was number 8 in sales which is pretty good but not what one would expect from a major event. Doomsday Clock has consistently sold well over 100k each month while HiC is dropping into the low 80’s. I get no pleasure out of reading bad stories and I am a fan of Tom King so let’s all hope I’m wrong and this ends up being one of the great DC events.

Nothing much revealed in this issue and honestly it feels dragged out. Still good because of the premise but sometimes I wish I just waited when the graphic novel comes out.
