 Rating:  - This Ain't No Civil WarI am only an occasional DC Comics reader. To be honest, I am a little out of touch with the DC Universe, apart from Batman, so Infinite Crisis is probably not the best place to start. In reading this, one does need to connect the dots with previous tie-ins, but it's not that confusing. However, as an epic, it's underwhelming. It's not exactly as coherent as that other crisis in the Marvel world - Civil War; House of M, etc. Over the years, DC characters have not changed as much ... Read More Rating:  - Discombobulation CrisisI've been getting into comics and graphics novels lately. And I was a big fan of the Justice League TV series. I had heard somewhere that Infinite Crisis was an epic DC Universe story that shouldn't be missed, so I was compelled to give it a go. Now that I think about it, most of the hype that heard was from DC Universe fans that had been (closely) following the events in DC releases in the years prior to Infinite Crisis. And perhaps the hype from DC fans was well-founded for this apparently ...

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, but in this ... Read More Rating: - A Better Crisis Than the OriginalI 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. Though ...
