| This cover is as Holly Jolly as you're gonna get, but the story was a blast! |
Okay, I’m a little annoyed here. This issue was touted on
the cover as being a Christmas issue. Yet, the story begins in January, with
Christmas and all the other holidays long past. I’d really be mad if I just
wasn’t so enamored with the whole series.
Impulse/ Bart Allen is funny. His mentor, Max Mercury is the
perfect comic foil. Plus, this issue begins a storyline about time travel and I
love those stories.
When Impulse and Mercury are sent back in time to the
Devonian Era, it’s like that Ray Bradbury tale where hunters go back in time
but when one accidently steps on a bug, his size 12 error causes all of history
to change. That’s the same with this.
Issue #34 was the beginning of a 3-part tale. I loved part
one so much, despite the false advertising on the front page that I’m now
scrambling to find parts 2 and 3 so I can find out what happens.
Awesome stuff, poor choice of covers.
Worth Consuming.
Rating 8 out of 10 stars.
Holiday atmosphere rating: 1 out of 10 jingle
bells.
