Summary
“The Dark Gods” part one! In the wake of DARK NIGHTS: METAL, new secrets of the cosmos have been revealed and taken form…and though she doesn’t know it yet, Wonder Woman is at the center of their plans!
Positives
The cover by Emanuela Lupacchino and Romulo Fajardo Jr. is great. I love the colors; the use of purple works well. The Dark Gods looks promising and I like the scale presented.
The interior art is by Stephen Segovia with colors by Fajardo Jr. I love their work in this issue. Segovia’s Diana looks great. The characters are all well drawn; they’re expressive and distinct. Fajardo Jr.’s colors are gorgeous as always.
This is a decent set-up issue. The premise is interesting. People are being affected by something. They believe their gods are dead which is driving them mad. That is a cool concept and I am interested to see where it goes.
Negatives
There are no negatives worth mentioning in this issue.
Verdict
This is a solid issue. I like the premise. This is a potentially interesting story with an intriguing mystery. Additionally, the art is gorgeous which makes the story a lot more engaging.
