Rating:  - Pretty Good for a Blockbuster Movie
I tried desperately to forge my way through the Original Crisis on Infinite Earths and I just couldn't do it. It has that old silioquy style comic vibe going on where characters talk to themselves and basically tell the plot through dialog. I just couldn't get into it. So I was a little suspicious of this sequel to begin with. Thankfully, it's more modern and appealing, if not over the top in some aspects, like the gratuitous violence and killing off of random characters. I never finished the original, ... Read More
Rating: - A Better Crisis Than the Original
I found this to be much more enjoyable than the original Crisis. The story was muddled, the dialog was bad, and at times it just didn't make any logical sense. But this for me was enjoyable through out. Infinite Earths tried to cram every character they could into the story often slowing down the narrative and confusing things. Where in Infinity Crisis it felt like they were able to work in a lot of characters, but I never felt it was getting away from the plot. I also felt like there was more tension. ... Read More
Rating: - The Ongoing Adventure of Crisis!
Great continuing story of the Crisis. This explains the origins of Superboy prime and more regarding the merging of DC storylines into one continuous storyline. Even better than Crisis on Infinite Earths.
Rating: - Very good tie ins to the DC multiverse
The book is a great read for those who want to have some closure on the DC Multiverse. I did my research before I purchased this product so I knew what I would be getting. Great artwork to accompany the story telling. (Who knew Batman even cared!)Of course when you get this many artists together, there will be some periods where the artwork is not what it should be! (The Supermen battle falls way short artistically and is the only point where the story falll short!)
Outside of those two items, ... Read More
Rating: - Infinitely Good!
I'll always wonder what I would've thought of this collection if I hadn't read the novelization first (which is excellent). However, this is still good stuff, and the art, while it doesn't match up to George Perez's art in Crisis, is still quite good. It's an interesting storyline, and it once again leaves things open for a sequel, which I'm sure won't be 20 years in the making again with Superboy. If you liked Crisis on Infinite Earths, this is worthwhile to catch up on life in the DC Universe again!
