    The Batman Universe - Jim Remolde Apr 21, 2017

    This was basically your typical action issue to end the arc. This may be the only issue that completely followed a linear telling and that made this issue easier to follow which is not a complaint. I like different ways to tell a story and I for one do not mind thinking when I read comics. The action here is satisfying and each of the characters had their part in the final victory. On top of that we have a cliffhanger to keep us engaged with what will happen next. Read Full Review

    This is a fun issue with fantastic art and big action, but don't expect the resolution to be anything more than superhero stuff. Read Full Review

    Now I don't know what this thing is coming for Earth, but part of me want to think I do. If it is, then maybe we are getting somewhere big with Justice League compared to other Rebirth books on shelves. Though until then Justice League #19 didn't leave us with the same punch as they could have to wrap up Timeless. Read Full Review

    This issue keeps dropping hints that a much bigger evil is on the horizon, but that constant foreshadowing doesn't make for a very exciting conclusion. We're curious about Hitch's endgame with this comic, and hopefully the next storyline will begin to clear things up again. Read Full Review

    What I have been saying about this book since the beginning still applies. It is very well drawn, and very well scripted, but the plotting really needs to pick up the pace. Read Full Review

    Dark Knight News - Tyler Harris Apr 23, 2017

    As the final chapter of “Timeless” closes off this arc by leading into the next one, I hate to say that I won't miss it. This arc was set up to be something more than what we got, and I feel as though even one more issue could've redeemed it in my eyes. Read Full Review

    Comic Book Bin - Deejay Dayton Apr 19, 2017

    The only moment in this issue that sparked me at all was the death of one of the kids from the future, the ones who I thought might be a reworking of Infinity, Inc. As the person dies, they say that nobody knows what they are doing. Yup. That is true indeed. I have no idea. The accuracy made me laugh, but not in a good way. I also dont really care.

    Comics: The Gathering - Hussein Wasiti Apr 19, 2017

    Hitch ends the best arc of the series so far with a fizzle of an ending, and not much else. There are some Rebirth teases here and there, but they offer nothing new that we don't know. A major plus was that the art was consistent across the arc, which is something DC should strive for when it comes to the rest of their series. What this book needs is a new writer, plain and simple.

    Lyles Movie Files - Jeffrey Lyles Apr 19, 2017

    This arc had a lot of promise, but Hitch isn't developed enough as a storyteller to deliver on these epic set-ups. As we're approaching the two-year mark with the title, Hitch has failed to create compelling and engaging stories featuring the world's greatest heroes. It's time for DC to start considering moving in a different direction with its flagship title. Read Full Review

    Nerd Church Radio - Ariel DuPey Apr 19, 2017

    If you've read any of my reviews before this, you know I have been unhealthily obsessive with finding any hint of the coming Watchmen story. Both Tempus and Molly are doing this in order to avoid the hell coming their way. To me that screams, DR. MANHATTAN! I've been trying so hard to like this book because I know it will play an important role in what is to come. I'm hoping with the DC having such tight reigns on the Watchmen plot, that the higher ups will give Hitch direction on how to address it. You know it's not good when someone says they hope corporate gets involved… So overall I do believe that the Timeless arc was an improvement from previous stories, but it's still too confusing, too busy, and too disordered.

    GWW - Deron Generally Apr 19, 2017

    A good end point for this particular arc with a lot of interesting questions raised about the future of the Justice League and what impact this story has on the rest of the DC universe. The art is really well done, but Superman's motives and characterization continue to be iffy to me. Read Full Review

    Weird Science - Jim Werner Apr 19, 2017

    I hated this issue.  I hate this book.  We get another non-ending to a story that made little to no sense and had no payoff whatsoever.  Avoid this book like the plague it is. Read Full Review

    Justice League continues to be a wreck. Something desperately needs to change. Continue saving your money for less regrettable entertainments. Read Full Review
