I have enjoyed the Freedom Fighters a lot in the past, and I really like some of the characters, but so far, this arc really isn't doing much for me. If the whole team has been taken out that easily, how are we supposed to believe they are going to come back from this? I suppose they could call on reserve heavy hitters like Miss America/Cosmos and Neon II, but the writers have said in interviews they intend to keep the team smaller to start, so I'm not sure that's going to happen. Firebrand is hugely out of his depth here, and barely makes an appearance. The Ray, a personal favorite, is downed what seems to me to be a bit easily for someone of his power level. Right at the moment, I'm leaning towards finishing out this arc and then dropping the title, but we'll see. Maybe they will pull the proverbial rabbit out of the hat next issue. This team was fantastic on the first year of Power Girl, which I loved, but this seems to be written by totally different people. Read Full Review

This is a book that is making a decisive move to lock itself onto my regular pull list. Palmiotti and Gray are delivering a strong story that offers much more than good guys and bad guys. This title offers new bits of mythology, new adversaries, old friends, and even historical reference. This is definitely not your dad's comic book. Read Full Review

I can't say I didn't like this story, but I really didn't enjoy it either. It was just sort of there. Read Full Review
