Doctor Fate is a series that I'll be sticking with through the Rebirth phase if only because of the solicitations and character it teases will be arriving. Right now, the series has felt like it's lost its way after an overly long and drawn out first arc and a second arc that feels like it's just meandering more than anything else. I really like the character of Khalid and all the new characters he's brought with him, but the time as Doctor Fate has increasingly felt unfocused, uninteresting, and just cartoonish in the wrong way. The talents here are strong as seen by those early issues but the pacing of the book and what it wants to do has hit a real slump. Read Full Review
