Can the device that Fury used to bring back the Amazons also provide the means to power up the new Earth-2, a world without natural resources? Hawkgirl thinks so, but given Furys background and history, can she convince the other Wonders and the rest of the world? Sides will be chosen as the future of the entire world may very well hang in the balance.

    Strong dialogue, art, and pace make this issue sing. It's good reading and its pace is so damn good you could check your watch against it. Read Full Review

    Overall, EARTH 2 SOCIETY #13 is worth a read, especially since it is a start to an intriguing story arc. Though the narrative is a bit slow, Abnett does a great job building the conflicts. There is also so much potential with the Queen Fury and Queen Marella alliance and the looming threat of Ultrahumanite with his army of children (it's always creepier with children). With a solid build-up issue like this one, the story going forward should be fun to read. Read Full Review

    I don't know if I'm just a fickle mush head or not, but again and again this series gets me all excited, but eventually it lets me down and I say that I'll never get my hopes up again.......... but goddamn does this issue get me excited for where this series will go.  I know we're not getting an official Rebirth on the cover of the new Earth 2 series once it starts to act as a prologue to what we'll be getting, but really this arc seems to be just that without flaunting it.  Between the vibrant art and the intriguing story I think I may just be on the Earth 2 trolley once again and if you've been hanging back waiting to see what happens, maybe this is a good time to jump back into this world of Wonders.

    A Whole New World is a decent read, but it could've been more to it. We don't see the reveal of our new villain until the end, which is fine however the rest of the book comes off as a giant discussion about Fury's proposal to save them all. I'm sure that Abnett is using this particular issue as a stepping stone to something else, so I'll give him a pass here on the slow pacing of the book. Dan's previous stories always involve build up to something dramatic, and that's what he's done here in this issue. I love Dan's attention to every part of the story here, and you really get an idea of what every hero's stance is in allowing Fury to use this technology to possibly save them and the world. I believe we're gonna be looking at a great story in the next issues coming up! Check out Earth 2 #13 and see for yourself! Read Full Review

    For such a good comic book, I have no idea why this particular issue felt short. Read Full Review
