But as luck would have it, someone knows how to save humanity.Unfortunately, it’s the last person you want. Guided by Doctor Fate and thePhantom Stranger…it’s John Constantine to the rescue.
There's a big mission down to Atlantis, as well as a great reveal about the fate of Mister Miracle, but the tone is so overtly chaotic that few characters make an impact except for the bizarrely funny teamup of Green Lantern Alfred and Ra's Al Ghul Batman. Read Full Review
DC vs. Vampires: World War V #9 continues to deliver tense, character-driven storytelling, with Matthew Rosenberg skillfully balancing a massive cast and Otto Schmidt's art bringing the chaos of battle to life.

With DC vs Vampires: World War V #9, our relationship has regressed.

I'm simple, I see dinosaurs, I give it stars.
No, but more seriously, is is mostly what I wanted. The alliance between the human side and the vamps is fun, but fragile and its clear they aren't getting away with what they've done. However, it's obvious they've got their own plan, so I wonder how they'll end. I doubt it's the last we've seen of their conflict.
Darkseid has turned out to be a pretty good villain this, suprisingly, basically because it seems it may be even able to sway some New Gods into his side, which is very intriguing. Barda and Scott will obviously do their own thing and I very much doubt Orion will side with Darkside under any circusmtances.
