Due to a screw up at Diamond, my LCS missed out on loads of comics last week, so I got both these issues at the same time. Since nothing really happened in either of them, I’ll review them both at the same time.

I’m going to keep it brief tonight, as it is late, I am tired, and I am in a miserable mood over a potential disaster that could destroy my wife and I’s hopes and dreams tomorrow. Oh well, I won’t pull you guys down with me

OK, so the plot is that in #5 the trinity take down Konvict, the tarot girl gets attacked by some Z list villains, her buddy turns out to be a vigilante called Gang Buster, who saves the day. Then, in #6 there is a lots of talk about why the trinity are a trinity, tarot girl gets kidnapped, and Gang Buster teams up with Hawkman. I just saved you $6!

Other than that nothing really happens, It wasn’t bad, but I did actually drop asleep for a few minutes while reading #6. I read 52, I even read all the way though the crap-fest that was Countdown to Final Crisis. After 6 issues this is failing to wow me, which is a real shame because I love everyone involved in this project, with the excepting of Scott McDaniel. Then again, I like chocolate spread, and I like Marmite, that doesn’t mean that Marmite and chocolate spread on toast will be a good thing. Yik! I’m going to let it hit #7, the magic number, before I decide whether to drop it. Sigh! DC, why do you do this? Do you not want my money?

Grade: 5 out of 10 - You should just go read a bus timetable, it is just about as memorable
