"Whoa...There's No One Home."
Synopsis
As the "team" slowly work their way together, Enchantress is hot on the hunt for the authentic June Moone!
The Good
Generally the characters are starting to grow on me, us as the readers are now getting the real gist of who these misfits are. Constantine continues to be as rude and abrupt as you can imagine, I quite like what I thought was a faint homage to a scene in Watchmen (can you guess which one?).
The continuing struggle with Enchantress / June Moone is good, I love how all her doppelgangers are out and about murdering their way across the country. There are a couple of especially gruesome shots of the mayhem they are causing. You can't say this doesn't belong in the "Dark" corner of the New 52!
Carrying on with the morbid sights, Madam Xanadu is ever cracking up with the visions of potential futures and all she can see is death and pain left, right and centre. It's creepy and well illustrated to boot.
The Bad
I'm still not seeing this as a team book. Surely, the characters are starting to gravitate their way towards each other,but for now they seem to just be pairing off as various status quos and character building is going on. It would be nice to see them actual work together as a team!
Conclusion
The book is starting to pick up pace, but those expecting the expected team action will be disappointed.
