Biff Bam Pow Comics

So, here it is - another review that probably won’t win me any fans.

***MAJOR SPOILER ALERT***

This book is a bit of a mixed bag. Actually, it’s not just a mixed bag. It’s a bag of s&@t. I’m sorry - major things happened in this issue - Batman got caputred by Granny Goodness’ new incarnation, the Martian Manhunter had a send off, the Daily Planet got bombed (and Lois was very much in the middle of it), oh and Barry Allen came back - and it was a complete letdown.

Barry frickin’ Allen came back. And you know what - it was probably the most underwhelming comback ever. For something that should have gripped me from the word go, trapping me in its steely little teeth - issue two was just a waste. I’m stunned to say that I actually preferred issue one more.

In a word - “avoid”.

Pete’s Score: 2 out of 5
(pick it up only if you want to see Barry Allen’s return - otherwise, wait for the graphic novel)
