The Justice League splits into teams to battle the dual threat of Brainiac and the Blood Moon, while the Batman team and Mr. Terrific try to take down Brother Eye in the present and the future!
This week has some big character returns alongside some great artwork – and who's that sliding down the elevator cables? Looks awfully familiar. Read Full Review
This week's Futures End sets the stage for what should be the final story to this year long epic. While it's not as exciting as last week's issue, it does maintain a level of hype that keeps me optimistic for the rest of this story and even has me scratching my head as to where the writers will take us and what it will mean for the New 52. Check it out because things are continuing to happen and for this series, that's definitely something out of the ordinary. Read Full Review
Futures End is starting to deliver on the "This is the End" hype from many moons ago. It doesn't explain itself, and I'm okay with that. This is actually an interesting read, and at the very least, it's an issue that makes me glad to be picking next week's issue up. Read Full Review
Since ancient times, people have believed crossroads to be dangerous places. They are points of possibility, places of decision, and strategic nodes that dominate the flows of wealth and control. But darkness and evil always flow to power, and folk tales tell that the crossroads was where one went at midnight to meet the devil and negotiate unholy bargains. Read Full Review
Unfortunately, the story isn't making as much progress as you may expect. Yes, the comic gives the appearance of things happening, but honestly, we've only made a tiny bit of progress by the end of the issue (seems like things are being setup for Convergence). It's rather annoying and disappointing, since after the last issue, you would expect a big battle or some big things to be revealed. Not really the case, and that's a darn shame. The writing and artwork weren't bad though, so there is that. Read Full Review
After a rocky start, Future's End has really found solid footing. The stories have been increasingly more impressive with last issue being one of the best. The carry over, however, isn't here and issue #41 doesn't maintain the same sense of urgency. There's still a lot of story to tell with seven issues left, so we can forgive this misstep, but I hope Future's End gets back on the impressive track it had going. With Convergence looming, this may be our best chance to understand what DC has in store for the future of its heroes. Read Full Review
Well=paced action and solid art, about all you could ask for from this weekly. It's nice to see Batman and Superman prominently in this issue. Looks like Convergence is already starting as we see Hawkman and Multiverse versions of him in a few panels. Great issue, Brainiac looks like he's getting ready to wreak havoc and Mr. Terrific and Bruce are in for a confrontation. Meanwhile Terry McG looks like he's ready to join the final act's assuredly intense action. Oh and this summer Batman Beyond finally gets his own stand alone title. Kudos DC.
Much better. Good.
