razzatazz's Mister Terrific #8 - The Truth is Out There review

    Just keep rolling

    So it comes to the end of this series, which for me started off pretty well but never really maintained the interesting start from say the first half of the first issue.  The series in my mind was constructed as an attempt by DC to create an Iron Man like character, but in so doing I think they likely went too far with it.  All too often the min character here spouted out scientific sounding words which were so out of place that they made little sense.  This particular issue also suffers a little bit from the typical final issue compacting, where what seems like the story arcs for the next couple of years are put in one issue.  And although the ending has been somewhat foreshadowed, this issue was not as bad as other which preceded it in this series, as it seemed a little more polished and coherent than the others.  I will not be sorry to see this go, but at least it ended with a bit of composure.

      This was quite a fun series to pick up and read each week. Some might have thought it boring and campy but I loved it. I really enjoyed how Eric Wallace handled the series after it was announced that it would be cancelled. He seemed to commit to every idea and story he wanted to tell with this book. And he did it with just eight issues. He told more story with those last few issues than I thought possible.The ending! Man oh man the ending. A story is only as good as its ending. Eric Wallace pull...
