. There are some crazy twists this issue, including Alfred continuing his pattern of having unexpectedly big roles in post-apocalyptic AUs, but this issue's best segment focused on a mysterious figure carrying a baby girl. Read Full Review

This issue feels important, but it also feels thin. Having the story jump around to so many locations and characters reminds us this is a battle across a lot of areas with a lot of characters, but it also means slight plot progression in each chapter. Still, meaningful moments take place, and the larger war and all the implications become more clear. Read Full Review
DC vs. Vampires: World War V continues to be one of the best looking books in the DC slate thanks to Otto Schmidt. The books various plot threads currently feel a little distant, but the promise of what is to come is more than enough to keep the plot running. Read Full Review
There are a lot of moving parts in the main story, but thankfully, not all of them are focused on at once, giving each of them some much needed breathing space. We don't see Damian in this issue, but we feel the ramifications of his actions. The story is still mostly setup at this point, but it does enough to spice up the story with bits of action now and then, and the art is decent, if not spectacular, and shines through during the big moments.

Excellent. Perfect balance of adventure and horror. This Elseworld is fire.
Excellent.
We go back to this world with two good issues. We've got setup of interesting plot points, but what makes it really work is the character interactions.
I loved Green Arrow and Black Canary's little conversation after the reunion and I'm intrigued by Damian's endgame objective.
But What I loved was the final sequence of issue 2. BANGER. I loved how tense and claustrophobic it felt, reminded me of the first half of the last series. And always a it of dark humour sprinkled there.
Let's keep this up.
Another great issue. Great action, writing, art, everything just worked together very well to make an entertaining book.
SPOILERS AHEAD
Very strong issue. Stronger than the first imo.
I'm pretty intrigued by all the plotlines in all honesty. I wonder what they're doing re-growing the plants, the magic side looks like it will finally get some focus which is great (and not for a second did I ever believe Spectre had been killed in the first series lmao) - Perhaps we will find something about the nature of vampirism?
And I'm pretty interested on who is that baby. At first I thought they were Jack Hawksmoor and Jenny from the All-Out War mini story but he seems to Mister Miracle here (and calls her his daughter). Maybe it's just a title thing though.
And that final part was brutal woah.
On the one hand, I sti more
this was a much stronger issue than the debut issue.
There's a lot I like about this issue. I'm still confused about why Aquaman looks like Deathstroke. Wonder Woman is scary and intimidating as a Vampire. The fight was Talia was good and the surprise twist with Alfred was amazing. I really like that ending and I'm looking forward to seeing where it goes.
