THE TRINITY OF EVIL HAS WON. DC's epic summer event kicks off with a bang, as the combined might of FAILSAFE and the BRAINIAC QUEEN has at last given Amanda Waller the ability to steal the metahuman abilities of every hero and villain on planet Earth. As chaos erupts in the streets and a massive misinformation campaign sways public opinion to her side, the founder of the Suicide Squad methodically targets each superhero dynasty one at a time, starting with SUPERMAN. But even in this darkest of hours, a resistance is forming...and BATMAN is out for vengeance. It's a shocking blitzkrieg across the globe that is decades in the making--and will s more
Absolute Power#1 was more than a warning shot it was a shot to the heart, on multiple fronts. Brace yourselves, loyal readers, the war has only just begun. Read Full Review
Absolute Power #1 is a grand slam of a start for the DC Universe's latest big event. Mark Waid and Dan Mora nailed making this start work as a culmination of all the storytelling with Amanda Waller since Dark Crisis On Infinite Earth #7's epilogue. This is a must-read comic book for fans of the DC Universe. Read Full Review
Absolute Power #1 presents oodles of action, adventure, excitement, and drama to get readers on board with DC's big Summer event. As a bonus, Dan Mora's art is an exquisite match for Mark Waid's surprisingly engaging script. That said, the story only works if you choose to believe Amanda Waller can take over the world without anyone lifting a finger to stop her, which is a mighty big pill to swallow. Read Full Review
I can’t remember the last time I was excited by a summer event, but Waid and Mora do the trick. The art is, as always, uncanny. Mora might be the best artist of his generation. Waid is a comic book legend and need no praise. I understand that you need some suspension of disbelief to accept that Waller could defeat the justice league with little opposition but I think Waid (and Tom Taylor) prepared the build up to the event really well.
while I am not a big fan of Amanda waller's characterization, I do like the intriguing plot on how Amanda Waller managed to trick the world by misinformation. I wish we are shown on her doing it instead of off screen, but it's good regardless. I don't like Amanda waller to be honest, and I think it's a little plot convience for every single superhero to lose their ability by technology, but so far I'm enjoying this start.
The art is good, but we have to wait. I didn't think it was a great start.
