    My reaction: Eh.

    It was sort of underwhelming. I mean, I was intrigued by the Darkseid part, and the Mary Marvel part, but everything involving Duela, Jason, and the villains sort of bored me. The whole Monitor thing caught my interest, and I'm wondering why Ray Palmer is somehow integral to stopping the "Great Disaster".

    Thoughts?

    Booster saved the Multiverse and no one saw that coming (except you) so I guess it's just the same thing. Except...this time they told us.

    Haha, well, Booster actually came and told me the future. It's sort of an inside tip.

    Did you read the issue? I'm just not sure if I'm going to be as into this series as I was with 52.

    I read it. I wasn't impressed but I figure I'll give it a shot like I did with 52 and see if it gets better.

    My review of the issue:

    Meh

    I pretty much agree with Scoodle's assessment of the issue, except I don't really care all that much for anything involving the New Gods. but I'll keep an open mind, maybe this series will bring the New Gods back in my esteem. It will all depend on whether or not they are used consistently.

    I'll keep buying it, just to find out what happens to Mary Marvel. I've got a page to update.
