Jared Matthews’s Reviews > Infinite Crisis > Status Update

The flashbacks are so good. Such clever story writing. I love the golden era heroes facing off against the Earth-one heroes. Reminds me a lot of the super friends cartoons I watched as a kid.

Issue #2 did a great job recapping Crisis on Infinite Earths and some of the preludes, such that even though I have not read those comics, I felt the impact of them. This really is just expert storytelling so far. Geoff John’s is a genius.

My first crisis. Issue #1 did a good job of laying the groundwork and summarizing all of the preludes to IC. The trinity is fractured, for good reason. Geoff Johns and team did a great job coming up with compelling reasons for the group to be in turmoil.

The star-studded villains aren’t pulling punches either. I’m excited to see what the rest of Infinite Crisis holds.
