BONUS REVIEW by John Schaefer
The New 52 begins to crumble around the edges as Hawk and Dove bites the dust after only 8 issues. And what are we given in this swan song? Nada. Zip, zero, nothing, the big goose egg. No big reveals, no hidden agendas, no promises of future appearances in other titles. Just a wonderfully dull pep talk about what a wonderful team these two heroes make. The good guys defeat the bad guys in a boring humdrum fashion. Promises of friendship are tossed about like flower petals at a wedding and in the end are heroes are leaping from the rooftop as only Rob Liefeld can draw. This was one of the titles that I had very high hopes for. So to watch it crash and burn like this is truly tragic.
