Absolute Power #1 felt serious, like things that were happening mattered. Task Force VII #1 feels like the writer thought "this comic has two kids as center characters, so of course it needs to be comic relief!" It also doesn't add anything interesting to the main event. Yes, they were imprisoned, Parasite is probably dead or unconscious, at least, and now we wait for the next issue. One word to describe Task Force VII #1: pointless. I hope the next one is better.

To quote Homelander: "It was perfect. Perfect. Everything, down to the last, minute details".

Another solid Absolute Power tie-in by Jeremy Adams! I miss him writing The Flash, but I am so happy he's on the Green Lantern book! That dude can do no wrong, it seems! But the back story by Marc Guggenheim also deserves a lot of praise. It was a short, emotional, awesome ride, that gives us a little bit more depth on the situation involving the Green Lantern Corps. Simply amazing!
