A FOREVER EVIL TIE-IN! Pandora seeks answers from the one man who seems to have them...Earth-3's The Outsider! But first she must make it past a rabid Vandal Savage, who wants revenge for what Pandora has done to him! All this, and an unexpected visit from the Hellblazer himself, John Constantine!
Forever Evil: Blight still seems like a slow burn. While I enjoyed this issue, and continually enjoy Ray Fawkes writing on Pandora, it seems like we're constantly waiting for the real story to start. We're given some fine action, and a lot of WTF moments that keep you on the edge of your seat, but I have trouble seeing where this story is going. Can the JLD actually kill evil? Doesn't seem likely. So if that's the case is this just a throw away story line for the Dark characters to keep busy during Forever Evil? Don't get me wrong, for what I've been given, I've been enjoying. Pandora is being made into a very fun strong character I hope to keep reading for a long time. While it's not meant for first time readers, if you're a Dark fan this is for you. Go check it out. Read Full Review
If Portela had been the only artist on this book, it would've received five globes, but the jarring art shift is just too much to call this book perfect. Still, this is the best issue of this series yet, from a story standpoint, and an excellent addition to the crossover that is Forever Evil: Blight. Read Full Review
For the most part, Forever Evil: Blight has gotten off to a good start in its first month. But the conflict seems to be moving by inches at times, and I really want to see the next big hook or twist that's going to justify the writers wringing another 14 issues out of this crossover.

It's kinda okay if you take it for what it is. Forever Evil has been a great event so far, but not all of the books are going to be essential reads. This one is probably one you can afford to miss. Not much happens, the creative juices of ray Fawkes are on autopilot throughout, and the art although competent isn't exactly something that you need to be shelling out your hard earned money to be checking out. The front cover is nice though, but apart from that this is as average as a comic gets, and if you're following the Forever Evil arc don't worry if you fail to pick it up. It's not a bad book, but on a Christmas week where you've already spent all of your money on pressies for the family and friends, you really don't need to be picking up this by the numbers issue of Pandora.

Trinity of Sin: Pandora #6 is just another part of the Blight crossover. It's not particularly great and feels very much like a middle issue of a crossover event. On the other hand, it's not bad either and has good art to it. Only get it if you are determine to see this crossover to the very end. Read Full Review
So with the cliffhanger, we now know as the readers that there is a reason for the deaths. They don't really mean anything at this point. This is sort of a cop-out, but I'm glad that they at least have acknowledged that this is not the best of plans. I'm interested to see how they explain whatever this plan is to the readers, because, to be completely honest, this event-within-an-event is a bit weak so far. It's an interesting premise, but something crazy needs to happen soon. If not, I'm going to keep saying "cancel these books" every time I write a review. Come on, DC. Prove that you're the authority on all things magic and supernatural like Marvel is for all things space and time. I know you can do it. I have faith in you. Read Full Review
