review 1: There is nothing really wrong with this title. Geoff Johns' writing is up to his usual standard. The multiple pencilers is slightly off-putting but doesn't really take away from the overall experience. It merits just three stars because there isn't much of an actual story here. You're introduced to a new (admittedly awesome) character but you don't get much of a sense of the role he'll play in the larger story still to come. Reading it, you definitely get the sense that you are in the middle of the movie and you're going to have to pony up more dough to learn the ending. It's an enjoyable read but only worth your time if you plan on reading the rest of the Blackest Night storyline.
review 2: Alone, this didn't wow me. As a prelude to a fantastic book (Bla... moreckest Night), it did its job: it introduced Larfleeze and the orange light into the DC Universe. I think I would have liked this more if I had read it before I read Blackest Night, but that's no one's fault but my own.This book explains who Larfleeze is, how he got his ring, what his constructs are, and pretty much everything else you could want to know about him. It also tells the origin of Glomulous (or the end of Glomulous, depending on how you look at it). less
