Animal Man #19 (2013)


Cover:

The paparazzi know little of this called tact.

Plot:

If Bruce Wayne thought his life was hard, here comes Buddy Baker!  After the death of Cliff at the end of Rotworld, Buddy’s entire life has crumble to pieces all around him.

Our Hero:

He and Bruce should form a support group.

Our Villains:

Eh, why not call the Red the villains at this point.  They certainly acted like this.

Our Side Characters:

Poor Maxine, caught in the middle of all this insanity.

Action:

There we go!  That’s how you deal with the paparazzi!

Dialogue:

Buddy, you really need to work on how to talk to people at funerals.

Art:

It looks icky entering and leaving the Red.

Most Memorable Moment:

Whoa!  His breath has got to stink.

Final Page:

Hey wait a minute!  He didn’t enter the place wearing his costume

What We Should Take from This Comic:

With everyone having cast him out of their lives, what is Buddy suppose to do now?

What We Do Take From This Comic:

Being a superhero with a son right now just flat out sucks.

Yay or Nay?

Yay?

Animal Man #18 (2013)


Cover:

Kkkkhhhhaaaannnn!!!

Plot:

It’s all over.  Rotworld has ended and Buddy Baker has gotten back to his normal time and place.  However, will he be able to save his family regardless?

Our Hero:

Well… your life is at least sort of better than Swamp Thing’s.

Our Villains:

I hate that kid.

Our Side Characters:

That’s right Maxine, you kick that evil boy’s ass!

Action:

Ah… they were dissolved into goo.

Dialogue:

Who wouldn’t want a costume with your kind of powers?

Art:

Hooray for one artist this time!

Most Memorable Moment:

Taproot?  Ascension Chamber? … are we perhaps hinting at something with Black Orchid?

Final Page:

I’m not sure what to say.

What We Should Take from This Comic:

Buddy managed to save Maxine from infection by the Rot and she managed to uncover something rather surprising about the Hunters 3.  However, with all of this success, tragedy still struck.

What We Do Take From This Comic:

Great, now Buddy has to go find Grant Morrison again and see if he can undo this.

Yay or Nay?

Yay
