What does Grodd do in a world without The Flash?
Grodd has escaped from the Speed Force and is going to take the Gem Cities as a symbol of his superiority despite that both humans and gorillas were about to make peace. Grodd doesn't care about anything but his destiny and is able to take over both species easily but something is still wrong, there are no other being who can prove to be a worthy rival of him.
*Kneel before Grodd!*
WOW! Brian Buccellato actually manages to make an entertaining story, I'm pleasently surprised about how much his writing has improved lately with both this and his work on The Flash Annual. The portrayal of Grodd is quite fitting and even adds some layers to his motivations, he is a really savage beast who considers everyone else beneath him and doesn't even think about killing others to prove his superiority. The strongest point here however, is how this goes accord to the Flashpoint story Grodd of War, in a world without nobody who become a worthy adversary Grodd doesn't know what to do. Don't expect a lighthearted story here my friends, this a pretty brutal tale.
I have one complaint though and is not really a complaint as much as nitpick, but I was really excited to see a new version of the Rainbow Raider named Chroma being introduced just to be disappointed a few pages later. Mr. Buccellato, you're a tease.
Chris Batista handles the pencils and his work is excellent. I'm glad that all The Flash villains issues have so many great artists working on them.
One of the best issues from this run. This makes Rogues Rebellion a much more promising read.
