Strangers
The third issue of the four issue series and still keeping me interested. I am riding this wave all the way to the beach.
Typhon has taken the helmet and amulet from Dr. Fate. He is now wreaking havoc upon the world. Maybe the Lords of Order were right?? Maybe chaos is supposed to reign over the world. Ok, we now it's not going to happen that way, but it's fun to be teased that way, right?
The problems have caught the attention of the Phantom Stranger and he's here to help out. I had not read anything with him in it before. What a cool character.... he's like Mr. Calm Cool and Collected all rolled into one.
The continuing struggles between Kent and Nabu and the decisions that are being made is a great story. Kent want's out, Nabu needs a new host body, but Eric is not ready to battle as Dr. Fate. Kent is finally getting his chance to think about his life and what he did/didn't have. He's mad at Nabu, he lost his father... the part that sums this up for me is when he is let's out his emotion on Nabu and says, "You didn't let me cry!!" That really summed it up for me... said it all. His lived this whole life as a hero, but in the end, missed his father. Didn't have a family. The price he has paid for the world is monumental. Great stuff.
Let's get on to chapter four and find out what happens!
