rating:
The three stars I am giving this go toward the fantastic art and color schemes throughout the series. Visually, this was excellent. And I really dug the introduction of Pariah, an immortal cursed to witness all tragedies of the multiverse.
But the story, for the most part, reads like an episode of Dragonball Z. DC heroes and villains team up to fight the extremely powerful Anti-Monitor and each of the ten gazillion times they think they've finally killed the bastard, he comes back more powerful than the last time! Superheroes apart from Justice League members like the Flash, Superman, and Wonder Woman suffer from disappointingly weak characterizations. Overall this series really wasn't as cool as I was expecting it to be.
