Batman/Superman (2019-) Vol. 1: Who are the Secret Six? by Joshua Williamson

My rating: 3 of 5 stars


A Batman/Superman title can be a fun-filled adventure bringing together the world's most popular heroes for monthly adventures...or it can be a depressing tale detailing the consequences of their decision in a mini-series that includes turning several heroes evil because it's part of the Batman Who Laughs' plan (or because they're not helming popular series take your pick.)

It's not horrendous or the worst thing ever, but this is really bleak downbeat stuff particularly for a Batman/Superman series. The Batman Who Laughs turns heroes and turns them Emo when can be a little bit annoying. (more than a little bit.) But there's some cool action scenes, the plot's decent. There's some set-up that could intrigue you, but this book left me feeling decidedly meh about the future of the series.
