Impulse #
Other than the cover,
there’s nothing remotely about Thanksgiving in this “Thanksgiving Special”
issue of Impulse. That’s why I bought this issue! Not all is lost, as some
parts of the book do revolve around Christmas, primarily, young Bart Allen’s impatience
to hurry up and decorate the school Christmas tree without using the speed
force.
That’s not to say that this was an awful book. I found it
very funny. The majority of the plot splits between a crime boss hiring a
mercenary to intimidate some witnesses from testifying against some illegal
dumping of chemicals into a local lake, while Bart and his friends at school
must deal with the annoying new school counselor.
I really enjoyed this book. I found it fresh and as I said
very funny. I’m not sure who the main villain is as she’s referred to as both “White
Lightening” and “Moonshine.” Which is it?
Despite this flaw and the blatant false advertising on the
front cover, I am very interesting in pursuing Impulse as a part of my ever
growing comic book collection.
Worth Consuming.
Rating 7 out of 10 stars.
Holiday atmosphere rating: 3 out of 10 jingle
bells.
