Damage Control (Series 3) #2 of 4


Damage Control (1991) #2

  I know that a couple of reviews ago, I said that Ernie Colon’s artwork in DC Series 2 #4 looked rushed and sloppy. Well, after the previous issues debacle with a new artist, I must say that the sketchy and rough art style of Ernie Colon was welcomed by to me with open arms.

In this issue, the crew of Damage Control is sent to Yankee Stadium with a report that a super villain has run amok and destroyed the place. Looking to prove that they are not drumming up business by wreaking havoc on the people of New York, John and Robin bring a detective with them. There, they happen to run into the Hulk! Only, Hulk isn’t there to tear up the place but he is hoping to making a killing if the Yankees can pull on off over the Red Sox! Huh?

This is a really bizarre issue that can only get weirder DC’s new intern, Robbie Baldwin (Speedball) calls up his buds The New Warriors to bring down the criminal syndicate known as Damage Control!

A fun filled issue that turns everything you know about the Hulk on its ear. A very funny issue that I think should be considered a classic. The imagination of Dwayne McDuffie is just full of surprises and he’s a master at crafting the adventures of Damage Control.

Worth Consuming.

Rating: 10 out of 10 stars.
