Some thoughts about Forever Evil #2

Superman is gone, this is a job for Lex Luthor.

Lex is decided to confront the Crime Syndicate who are currently terrorizing the world and to accomplish that he will need the help of a project he has't finished yet. Meanwhile, the Teen Titans have gone to stop some of the CS members but none of them seem to have chance which results in the kids being lost in time.

This was another pretty good issue. The portrayal of every character is done pretty nicely, although I have some complaints about Lex's current characterization he's still pretty competent and understandable, but I have to say that my favorite interpretation here is Ultraman's, in past incarnations (especially in Grant Morrison's antimatter version) he was basically an enraged beast that always seemed like he was going to lost control at any time, here he's presented as a much more calculating and terrifying man, always planning for his next step. Job well done.

The plot also progress effectively. We see new developments about Lex's plans to defeat the CS as well as some hints about the fate of the Justice League while giving us little teases about the rest of the world and future appearances.

And hey, David Finch's art looks actually better, there is more refinement in his characters and scenes, the anatomy is still a bit off but is definitely a step up.

Satisfying read, this event is turning to be a pretty iteresting one.
