35: Girls Just Wanna Have Fun
While I love the cover of the women in 52...the story seemed lack luster...
The Mary Marvel/Zatanna/Eclipso fight was quick and kinda dull...with Mary left alone not understanding what she had done that was so bad.
The Storyline of Donna Troy, Jason Todd, Bob the Monitor, and the New Atom is still boring and whoever this queen is that took them is stupid looking...I don't like her as a villain...
The Karate Kid/Triplicate Girl storyline had one interesting tidbit to do with Checkmate...but still dull.
Jimmy Olsen is not let into the JLA thank God. But I didn't understand how Superman can say he doesn't think Jimmy has powers...did he not see him with that Giant Monkey in I believe Action Comics last week...maybe Supes just heard Jimmy talking the monkey down.
Holly and the Amazons is looking to be rather stupid...I mean really the Amazon with a funny face on it...who do you think it is...maybe Harley Quinn...watch me be wrong and have egg on my face.
I love Countdown and the death of the New Gods thing is great...just not here...the death of Knockout in Birds of Prey was shocking to me even though we all saw it coming...I think it is Infinity Man doing it...but I think I was led to think that...
The Origin of Parallax was not well done. Still all if forgiven...a dull issue everynow and then for a weekly series is not bad.
35: Girls Just Wanna Have Fun
I have got to say, I liked some of the stories here. I enjoyed the bit with Jimmy Olsen, I thought it was at least cute. Kind of funny. The bits with Mary Marvel and Zatanna, I did like that but thought it was kind of cruel to see Mary thrown out with no concern for her. You would think Zatanna would be a little interested in why her friend went off the deep end so suddenly. The bit in the nanoverse, well ... I liked the stuff that has happened before, but I do not care for the new villain. I guess this is the issue they start bringing this storyline to a close with since they found Ray Palmer. It just would have been better without the lame Queen character. The Amazon stuff was decent but unexciting I have a feeling I can see where this is going. The best part of the book is the stuff with Karate Kid. I am enjoying his storyline quite a bit. Finally we have the Origin of this weeks villain. Truth told since it was Parallex, I didn't read it. I thought Parralex was the worst mistake made to a good decission in a long time. Over all the book was lackluster. Nowhere near the ones that came before it.
