    Age of Eclipso!


    Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 
    Now I am not lying when I say pick up this book right NOW! This is the best and I mean best issue of Robinsons run heck even the whole entire Justice League Vol and guess what the JLA is in it for Two Pages! Brett Booth is perfect for this Arc.  I am a big fan of Obscure Characters and this issue has alot of them. This is kind of like a Face of Evil issue it focusses on Eclipso who sheds a whole lot of blood. there is a page that really shows how evil Eclipso is when he rips a guy's head off! Well a serten character dies a character who is a big part of Bruce Gordons Life which is sad.  I knew a decent amount about eclipso but after reading this I know alot more.  Can't wait to see what happens to Doctor Mid-Nite. We're introduced to a new Cool Canadian Character(Good Job DC!)  I can't wait to see the next issue to see what happens to the Spectre who doesn't appear in this issue. Great Diologue I mean there have been a bit bad diologue problems lately with his run but this issue is Wonderful!  Pick this issue up and for spoilers on who dies scroll down............................

Robinson seems to recognize that Eclipso is a villain that a lot of readers recognize as a visual but really do not know much about. This is as much about explaining Eclipso's history as it is about him recruiting a shadow t...

      The Good: I'm completely over whatever issues I thought I had with Brett Booth's art. It's not perfect, but he makes Eclipso look AWESOME when that design could easily go wrong. Giving us the history of Eclipso was a good idea, because I had very flimsy knowledge of Eclipso. And it skims enough not to seem too obnoxious. Getting into the head of a villain like Eclipso, right after seeing his full backstory, was really interesting. What Robinson's been doing very well is weaving all his arcs toge...
