52 Aftermath: The Four Horsemen #5


 52 Aftermath: The Four Horsemen #5

  As an infection rattles his body, Superman must fight off Famine. Batman and blast from the past, Snapper Carr battle each while fending off Plague. Wonder Woman unleashes her inner fury as she tackles War over the Pacific. That leaves Death, whose taken his army of the undead from Bialya and transferred it to Oolong Island. Who will defend the island of villains? Enter: the original Doom Patrol! (Wait a minute, aren't they dead too???)

   This is an action-filled issue. But I really am confused about the appearance and role of the original Doom Patrol. The team for the longest time been the Uncle Ben of the DC Universe. It other words, they're dead and the stay dead (Okay- to be fair, Robotman survived and Miles Caulder wasn't even there when the Doom Patrol died in the final issue of the original series with the same name (issue #121, 1968.) So, when did they come back? Or because the Horseman Death can raise the dead, have members of the Doom Patrol been revived as well?

  Worth Consuming but man do I have questions.

   Rating: 8 out of 10 stars.
