$2.99
VERY FINE/NEAR MINT
Written by Dwayne McDuffie Art and cover by Carlos Pacheco & Jesus Merine
Meet Libra and the Human Flame, two central villains in the upcoming FINAL CRISIS! Where’d the Human Flame come from, and who does he hate more than anything in the universe? As Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman assess the future of the Justice League, their days may be numbered.
REVIEW by Brian Fisher

Final Crisis tie-in, ahoy! I've avoided this book like VD since Meltzer left around issue #12. But there was one thing different about this issue that made me give it a chance: Carlos Pacheco. Pacheco should be drawing every DC comic the same way Johns should be writing every DC comic. Every time he puts pencil to paper he creates the perfect representation of any and every DC character (especially Batman and Superman... this man was born to draw those two!). But the art aside the story wasn't too bad itself. The meeting between the "trinity" in the beginning feels unnecessary, but other than that we get a straightforward hero versus villain story that hits all the right notes. But it definitely is the art that puts this issue over the top and makes it one of the better releases from DC this week. I give it 8 out of 10 Grahams
