And Then I Read: WORLD’S FINEST 1

This is part of the Earth 2 continuity, which I have no interest in reading, but I decided to try this one because I like the writer and artists. Though some things are a bit confusing, in general Paul Levitz does a good job of telling his part of the story without leaving me feeling  there are massive gaps that need filling. So, we have alternate versions of Supergirl and Robin (a female one) who have been thrown out of their own alternate Earth into a different one where they become alternate versions of Power Girl and Huntress. Without trying to hard to follow the convolutions of that, I enjoyed the action and dialogue.

The art by George Perez and Scott Koblish on the PG/Huntress section is lovely, though some of the faces are missing the true Perez look that he himself and a few other inkers provide. Still good, though. The art on the SG/Robin section by Kevin Maguire is equally nice, and has more action in it than usual for Kevin, handled well.

In all a good read. Not sure if I’ll read more or not, but you might like to.
