It's now or never for Batman Beyond and the heist team to make their move on TerrifiTech.
This has been a really good bunch of weeks. We've gotten answers, progressed the story and characters have become interesting and or likable. Now these seem like normal things that all comics should have, but boy was I worried about this title having none of these awhile back. For now all my fears have been put to rest as Futures End has continued to be great and I haven't had to yell at my cat about things it will never know or understand. Just another great issue with Scot Eaton on art duty this week and that's always a good thing. Go check it out and get lost in Five Years From Now. Read Full Review
This week brought us some anticipated scenes as well as made fresh some older narratives. Deathstroke getting some answers of his own, and the reminder of what Superman means to everyone creates a strong read this week. Read Full Review
The New 52: Futures End #19 continues to deliver its weekly blows but after nineteen issues there are certain questions I want answered. And in my opinion it's time for the series to take a chance and actually explain what happened during the war these icons keep talking about. But, as individual outings go this one managed just enough progression to keep me around. Recommended. Read Full Review
The art quality isn't the best we've seen from Futures End, as Scot Eaton's usually flair for clean, precise superhero storytelling becomes somewhat muddled. Weekly books rarely tend to bring out the best in artists. Read Full Review
If more issues ofFutures Endwere like this, I'd be a much happier person. There is nothing life-changing here: it's just a forward moving issue all around. Several story lines will hinge on this issue in the future I'm sure. I'm really excited for upcoming issues and that's really what this series needs: excitement. Read Full Review
FUTURES END takes a since break from the crazy plot twist and begins the deal with the ramifications. While the pacing has slowed down once again, it feels natural and needed. With minor action sequences and a little bit foreshadowing there should be plenty of pages to keep readers entertained. While the cliffhanger seems lackluster for now, I have hope that next weeks issue will prove me wrong. Read Full Review
I want to like this series more than I do, as a DC fan I should like it more than I do. Its writers have proven track records. Its art is great, with the realistic style that I prefer in modern comics. But where DC's 2006-2007 series 52 left me wanting the next issue, Future's End mostly leaves me feeling mostly indifferent and dissatisfied. 19 issues in, I'd really like to see more about the war which lead up to the events in the book, an often mentioned but never explained war with Earth 2. There's still time for this series to pick up the pace but one has to wonder about who (other than hard core DC fans) is still picking this up after 19 weeks and will new readers jump on in the middle of the story?

So the Shadow Council finally makes an appearance.
Good issue. Liking this series more than most.
