This is it the cataclysmic conclusion of the miniseries that launched the FIRST WAVE universe! Every life on Earth is threatened by Anton Colossi's mad ambition. But The Spirit is at death's door, The Batman is near his breaking point, and Doc Savage is at the mercy of a mad scientist! The stakes couldn't be higher and in FIRST WAVE, anything can happen!
An uneven finish to an otherwise solid homage to the pre-Golden Age of comics and heroes. It doesnt achieve the epic feel it goes for, but a strong story nonetheless. Read Full Review
First Wave ends as definitively as one might expect from the first arc of an ongoing series. Sadly, this isn't an ongoing series. We can only hope that DC has further plans for this universe, and that Azzarello will remain involved. With so many cookie cutter superhero books on the market, First Wave has offered something decidedly different and more pulp-influenced. It deserves a longer lease on life. Read Full Review
