Following their battle against Mantis, a Boom Tube mishap forces the Forever People to find alternative transportation back to New Genesis. After getting some unexpected help from Bat Cow, they arrive home to learn that Azur Te has come to join the team and Guy Gardner has brought the Green Lantern/New Gods conflict to their doorstep!
I love the Infinity Man and the Forever People. I can see why some would be turned off by a book that wears it's craziness on it's sleeve, but that's the reason I am so fond of it. I am having so much fun with this book that I hope it never ends. I'd love to recommend it to everyone, but it is such a personal taste thing that I just ask you to give it a try and see what you think. You just may join the Cult of Infinity with me.

If "Infinity Man and the Forever People" #4 was a first issue, it would lose a lot of readers, but as the fourth issue of a series, "Infinity Man and the Forever People" #4 acts as a railway turntable, waiting for the train to load, then shifting direction once more before taking off in a new direction. That said, this series is mere steps away from needing a glossary or character key and the final page appearance propels this series into its next adventure, seemingly once again plucking the destiny of "Infinity Man and the Forever People" from the hands of the creative team.

Overall, the book could use some more New Gods/Infinity Man-type action and a little more clarity. These characters come from the mind of the great Jack Kirby and are packed with potential. With just a little more oomph from the creators, this book could be outstanding. Instead, it's hovering around okay. With any luck, the upcoming crossover will give it the boost it needs.

If you buy this for Bat-Cow prepare to find it sadly lacking. This is a goofy, fun, old-style comic book like you would expect to find on the stands in Kirby's era, which means it probably has an appeal for connoisseurs of that sort of thing. If you're just a Bat-fan wandering into this strange territory, feel free to skip it unless you absolutely want the cover for a pin-up. Read Full Review
