| The Zoo Crew aren't really fighting each other like this cover implies. I hate when books don't match the material promised on their covers. |
In this the second all-solo adventures issue in
a row, we finally learn of the format change. It appears that series artist
Scott Shaw went off to greener pastures and so in an attempt to stay on target
with not having the series go into delays or even get outright cancelled, the
publisher has had a team of artists and writers pushing out small vignettes
when time allows.
The 3 stories are very good. But, the framing
piece which has half of the Zoo Crew going to the mall for some pre-vacation
shopping and the other half perusing Yankee Poodle’s secret files is
disjointed. First, of all, Alley-Kat-Abra is supposed to go to the mall, but
here story has her at the opera, but there isn’t an explanation as to why she
went there instead. Then we see Rubberduck and Pig Iron gasping over some big
secrets hidden in Poodle’s file, but what they are is seriously overlooked. I
wish some better story editing of those framing pieces would’ve been executed.
It would’ve made this a superior issue. Instead, it’s a hoo-hum comic starring
Funny Animals with super powers.
Rating 5 out of 10 stars.
