Worlds' Finest #1

There was so much slash in this book I couldn't even pick out which panels to post without exceeding the 4 page limit. So I'll settle for posting the Earth-2 aftermath instead.

First things first, the fate or Helena's Robin costume:

-Sniffle- RIP Helena's Robin costume. :(

Well, that answers the question of how Helena will eventually run into Earth-1 Batman. Very Bertinelli-like there Helena. Or does this make her more like Selina?

And now, Huntress Begins!

I think between Perez and Maguire, Maguire draws Peege the best. Perez's Peege looks ten years older than Helena. @_@

Aside from the problematic Helena Bertinelli death off panel, this was actually a very good issue. Both Maguire and Perez impressed me with their art, plus I like how Levitz writes Hunts and Peege in this book. I'm game for #2!

	So E2 Helena Wayne stole money from E1 Bruce Wayne... was that really the wisest course of action for someone trying to keep a low profile? Stealing from BATMAN? Also "Robin's no use against Darkseid anyway. I'm a joke, you're the one with the superpowers"?? Really? I can't imagine the daughter of Batman and Catwoman EVER saying that.

	I took this to mean that Helena feels she has nothing else left to lose after all that's happened. So I don't think it's too surprising she's pushing her luck in a world where she doesn't exist and recklessly takes on whatever challenge comes her way. She did this in her solo series as well.

	From what I could tell from both books, too, was that Helena's probably more convinced of her father's death than Karen might have been of Kal's. (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent)

	well, I've seen some panels from older Batman stuff and he was at times shown admitting the best he could do was pray. (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent)

	Yes to both; the first one is only plausible if Bruce has already figured out the situation and decided to let her get away with the hack just to see where she was going with it. (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent)

	It's been a month since she saw the deaths of Superman, Wonder Woman, and her dad. It's hard to blame her for being a bit demoralized. Though I'm not sure why she doesn't immediately assume Earth-1 Batman is also Bruce. (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent) (Thread) (Hide 1 comment) (Show 1 comment)
