Scooby-Doo Team-Up #19


  It's Halloween night and the magician Zatanna invites the Scooby-Doo gang to a special show. But entertainment isn't all that the mage has in store for the detectives. Someone has kidnapped her father Zatara, again!
     The gang accept the case but while teaming with Zatanna, they discover that many mystical icons of the first generation of DC magic heroes have been stolen within the past few days. With the clock ticking to midnight, Scooby and friends race to solve the mystery least a sinister plot come to find fruition at the Witching Hour.

   This issue of Scooby-Doo Team-Up was a lot of fun. Dozens of magically powered characters from over 75-years of DC Comics pop up for cameos in this. Many I remember from reading my dad's old comics and some i had never heard of before.
    I really appreciate how writer Sholly Fisch ties in Zatanna’s first appearances in comics when she enlisted the Justice League of America to help find her dad the first time way back in 1964-65. It's little Easter eggs like this that makes this series a joy for older readers and not just the young generation.

   Before closing, many thanks to those of you who have become a fan of Scooby-Doo Team-Up. It was just announced that the series will be be going monthly starting with this edition. This means that the series is growing in fan-base. I really love this series and the move from bi- monthly to monthly should mean that there is more epic team ups to come starring the crew of the Mystery Machine.

Worth Consuming

Rating: 10 out of 10 stars.
