While it's an interesting premise, this is ultimately a shameless cash-grab by DC. Hardly worth paying Five dollars for Four issues. If this is something you're interested in, probably better to just trade wait.
Parts of the story did throw me through a loop and had me guessing. But again, better to just wait for the collected book.

Wow, this comic was poorly written even by the standards of recent months. Taylor threw everything away and gave up on writing anything good. Now it's time to count down the months for the new writer, who will have to clean up a lot of the mess that Taylor has been leaving behind.
Redondo's art isn't bad, but it doesn't have any standout moments.
