Another very good story here. Superman clearly has some issues that need addressing. Even though this idea can seem kinda redundant, Taylor and company are keeping Injustice from falling into cheap theater.
I think the title is only getting better. I love the Green Lantern line anyway, so when we get a super-war between the greens and yellows, all I see is tons and tons of red.I can't believe how good these are. It's like stepping into an alternate universe where good writers and artists stepped up to the plate and decided to mess with our heads and do it right.Thank you!!!!
Damn this book hits ya hard. Not as many deaths as the last volume, nor as "OMG" moments but there are still a few, it runs nice and easy, and overall another volume to read that's too fun. Check this out, it's so good for any DC fan or not.
Vote: 4,5Can you believe a videogame-based Elseworld could be better than the comics universe inspiring it?No shocking main characters deaths like in previous volumes, but this one hits hard and low the reader too... and it's a real pleasing surprise. Sadly sometimes artworks are just not as good as the (awesome) storyline.
4.5 starsI admire that Year Two, Vol. 1 is largely talking-head dialogue / scheming scenes, involving dozens of characters - the real action is only in the last quarter of the book - but yet it's still one hell of an entertaining superhero soap-opera. Or does it sound better to call it a 'serialized drama'?Taylor & company are keeping the quality consistent, and there is a perverse joy to be had watching these former co-workers clash with each other (the early Superman / Black Canary exchange is...
Thank you, NetGalley!4.5 starsI was understandably worried that this would suck...or at least not live up to my expectations.I mean, Injustice has been the on a short list of Must-Read titles for me since I managed to get my grubby paws on the first one.After the shocking ending of Injustice: Gods Among Us, Vol. 2, I've been wondering if this title could keep the momentum going. The deaths of several major characters, plus that thing that happened to Batman at the end?How the hell is Taylor goin...
I think the story remains interesting here with the introduction of new characters and yet we are starting to see stories splinter off and the main story slightly running out of steam. Still great art though.
This volume opens with a much-needed light-hearted flashback featuring Hal Jordan, and adorably playful interactions between Oliver Queen and Dinah Lance. It's cute, shows how secure and comfortable Ollie is with himself, and Dinah gets to show off a little.And then it's back to the present where the situation continues to become more tense between Superman and the heroes who don't support him. The Guards of the Universe (or whatever they're called) have just about had enough and are going to in...
4.5 StarsThe first volume was pretty good but this volume is all kinds of awesome. Tom Taylor pretty much did the impossible in making Guy Gardener one of the more despised DC heroes of all time kind of cool. The 2nd half of the book is all action with most of the Green Lantern Corp heavies trying to subdue Superman which was a real treat for the eyes. Actually I was wishing they’d really kick his smug ass into next week but there’s always next year. Give this a read if you want to see Superman
Riveting stuff. Superman's rampage continues. He's decided that he needs to rule over mankind so he can keep it safe. Not everyone is down for it, so things come to a head between him and Batman. Heartbreaking, really. Batman will not give up. He's not made that way. Even he will take on a madman with unlimited power. Superman has lost his grip and he's developed a cult of personality around him. Very timely subject matter. Some leaders can do that, and that's when people have to make the truth
Another good volume in the Injustice series. Not as good as year one, but that may be because there's a lot more behind the scenes dialogue and intrigue instead of out-and-out battles. Of course, it ends on a cliffhanger. Thanks to Netgalley for the advance copy.
Slightly disappointed by this volume. The art was kinda shaky. I'm also not a huge GL fan, making this volume a bit of a grind.
Re read this because I released I missed the volume before it. Tom Taylor does a good job of juggling so many characters. Like a boss.
The first issue begins with a hilarious little flashback scene that had me all giddy and happy and shit and then immediately made me super fucking sad. It's weird how such a fun, action-packed comic can be drenched in so much bleakness and depression. But it works. It works brilliantly.
Damn Tom, three in a row. Tom Taylor’s Injustice: Gods Among Us title gets it’s hat trick with this, the third volume in the series. Never woulda thought a series based on a video game set in an alternate reality could be better than the DC universe’s “actual” reality (the New 52). Now that I think about it, comparing it to most of the New 52 isn’t saying much, but shit is this GOOD. I’m actually wishing this was the New 52, but DC doesn’t have the balls for that. After the first collection I re...
Which is more improbable:a) the third volume of a video game tie-in comic remains one of the best things published by DC comicsOR b) Guy Gardner has been developed into a character who doesn't make me grind my teethYour answer doesn't matter, because Taylor did both. Instead of being focused on Batman, like the previous year's stories were, this volume was very Green Lantern. See, Oa is not looking favorably on Superman's agenda, and they just don't trust the guy. But Hal does, at least for now....
SO GOOD!This series is amazing, it just gets better and better. We see Superman sink deeper into darkness and Sinestro steps in to take advantage...man he's a bad ass.This book was Green Lantern heavy which I loved. Plus we start to see Gotham City push back against Supes' police state.There is a great balance between action, drama, and comic relief. The series continues to be well drawn and move at a fast pace. Death and destruction stemming from America's favorite hero makes one hell of a show...
Why are they showing us awesome Green Arrow/Canary scenes?! ;( I'm grateful for the flashbacks, but WHYYYYYYYYYY *SAD FACE* I wish we could have explored their partnership more.Not nearly enough Batman in this volume, but given his condition... understandable. It was great to see Jim Gordon step up and I can't wait to see the effect his 'game changer' will have in the next volumes!The only issue I have is that this reads TOO FAST. I came to the end all too suddenly and I don't have the next volu...
This was a pretty interesting read.We see things going cosmic this volume as we have the Guardians intervening and well Sinestro allyng himself with Superman and we see how the conflict begins and escalates and interesting stuff with Hal and John and how the mahinations of the villains manipulations happen and I love the conflict growing in Hal's mind and it will lead to some interesting things down the line. Plus BOP and Jim and Harvey putting up a resistance that will be a big plot point later...
Great continuation, even before you can play the second part of the video game. The plot is on the right track I hope I did not end up hating the comic.
