And this was honestly the only exciting thing that happened this issue.
Well, there's also Little Desaad being all cute and adorable hugging his purple cat, but that's covered in another story.
Anyway....




Five bucks says the climax of this story will reveal that Desaad was the guy Huntress and Power Girl followed through the Boom Tube from Earth-2. Which by then won't be much of a climax. Or does this scene right here count as the climax? I'm honestly not sure since there's been no build-up to this point.
Admittedly, Desaad is one of those characters I'd like to see his origin fully explored. I don't trust Levitz to be the man to do it, but I'd like to see someone flesh him out nonetheless. I'm especially interested in knowing how he went from being the cute kid below to looking like the guy above besides being tricked into killing his favourite pets.

Date: 2013-04-09 07:23 am (UTC)I was more thinking an entirely new little kitty to provide DS with a sort of Koko-the-Sign-Language-Gorilla companionship.
Although, then again, Dex-Starr might just do the job if he traded his red ring for a blue one...

Date: 2013-04-09 09:27 am (UTC)The nondescript grubby robes leave a lot more flexibility to the imagination as to what he MIGHT be wearing underneath (or not, as the case may be) so, as in Morrison's words about the Joker sexuality, "He's whatever freaks you out the most".
If this was "classic" Kirby Desaad, the band playing in the glass box would actually be in some sort of torment, and be able to see out at everyone smiling and having fun, apparently, at their pain, unaware that their outward appearance didn't match the reality.
