    More Bleez

    I'm not sure if it was just where i got this issue from or what but there were a ton of ads in this and it really broke the flow of the book. This book clearly takes place before GL: New Guardians, and was predictable. There was nothing bad about this book, but nothing really stood out. I still don't know why a pool of blood makes someone regain their intellect nor why it's needed when it is an effect by the ring. It also brings up the question of if it is just jumping the pool...and Atrocitus isn't always around why don't they jump in or fall in from time to time?

    I also don't like Atrocitus in this book because he doesn't act right. It's even pointed out by Bleez that what he is yelling at her about is counter to his character and counter to his intentions.

    It's a nice store read, but i'd not recommend buying

      The Good: Bleez raises a lot of good philosophical points. Was she better off in mindless rage, not being forced to know the horrific memories that led her to that state? Is intelligence a gift or a curse? Sometimes simple life is a happier life. And what is better? A simple death of mindless rage, or maybe an elongated torture? Which one represents rage? Which one represents retribution? Is either one justice? The Bad: Atrocitus needs a right hand man to help hm quell the incipient rebellion. S...
