Review: Interesting story - First things first - i have to say that the artwork is wonderful "most of the time". But at someplaces, the artwork is terrible and if you guys see the pictures i uploaded here then you will see an aweful looking wonder woman in two pictures. You will understand what i mean by terrible Second thing - the story. Story was moving at a nice pace in the begining. Every character had a great role, but when we reach mid way, the story seems a little boring when many new characters are introduced and batman is sidelined for a long time. I loved the role of constantine in this story, he is at his usual best - smoking and cunning. As the story moves on, wonder woman is also sidelined. And her role in this story is not something to be worth mentioning. Superman has somehow lost the ability to think and batman is hell bent of stopping him at any cost. Batwoman is wasted, and i also loves the the little role of green arrow and black canary. Their pairing was awesome and a few good moments in this story. Flash has nothing much to do, and biggest disappointment is shazam. It would make no difference if he was not even there in the story. Much importance is given to sinistro and lanterns. Harley quin has a good role, but her face does not look that beautiful. Best looking girl here is black canary and best looking guy is green arrow. Third and the most important thing - "pricing". When i bought this omnibus, the price was ruppes 6700 and when it was delivered to me, i again checked the price and it was rupees 5700. So desertcart, what the f*** is this. I have cut one star for this very reason. Review: un must have - Un chef d'oeuvre tant graphique que scénaristique;...indispensable dans toute bibliothèque de passionnés.
