Reviews

[David Dalton · Rating 3 out of 5]

I think I am beginning to lose my interest in this title. To tell you the truth the storyline has been going downhill for the past several months. Hard to figure out what is going on. Not so with all the Rebirth titles. Suicide Squad is going strong, as is Justice League and Justice League of America. I think I will quit this title in the next few months, after the upcoming Teen Titans cross-over.

It's fun picking up random comic issues in the middle just one or two issues and trying to enjoy the story for what it is. Graphics for what they are and the characters for what they are.

I have always loved comics, and I hope that I will always love them. Even though I grew up reading local Indian comics like Raj Comics or Diamond Comics or even Manoj Comics nows the time to catch up on the international and classic comics and Graphic novels. I am on my quest to read as many comics I can. So you also give a chance to comics and Graphic Novels and Keep on Reading.

I loved reading this and love reading more, you should also read what you love and then just Keep on Reading.

Showdown with Deadline causes some collateral damage. Or does it?

Well, is the storyline confusing? Yes. Do I like it? well, maybe.
I really like Deathstroke's character, but up until now, it felt like I'm reading side stories.
