Buried on a Sunday! With the Death of Solomon Grundy, Cyrus has no distractions or lies to hide behind anymore. We finally learn the answer to who killed Cyrus Gold and why. But will Cyrus forgive his killer and end his curse forever? And with his past mistakes, will Hell let him go? Time runs out for Cyrus as Blackest Night hits. Is this the end of Solomon Grundy?
The greatest strength of this series all along has been the weird, exaggerated and emotive artwork of Scott Kolins, and that hasn't changed with the final issue. He captures the gruesome and powerful nature of the title character incredibly well. Michael Atiyeh's colors add a lot to the visuals too. I love the contrast between the bright but eerie green tones of Green Lantern's powers against the murky darkness of Solomon Grundy's corner of the world and his flesh. Read Full Review
The art is consistently good and in intensity and menace, it tries to make up for the failings of the story but it simply isn't enough. Scott Kolins, who did both art and story, maybe outstanding in the former area but falls short in the latter field. Read Full Review
