Some thoughts about Earth 2 #15.2: Solomon Grundy



Solomon Grundy, born on a...

A long time ago a family worked at a Slaughterhouse, their circunstances were hard but the father still endured until one tragic day when his wife commited suicide due to the constant abuses of their boss which prompted his husband into becoming a murderer and killing himself. Now, Solomon Grundy has returned from his exile in the moon thanks to Green Lantern and everything that crosses into his path ends dead.

Matt Kindt handles the new origin of Solomon Grundy and he does a wonderful job at creating an interesting background without contradicting what happened in the previous issues of Earth 2. He actually made Grundy a sympathetic character instead of just a rooting zombie looking for destruction and death, not to mention that he introduces a logical reason behind his famous phrase and possibly a future sub-plot for him, what happened to his son?

Aaron Lopresti does the art and his work stunning, pretty detailed and emotional, I missed him.

Contender for one of the best issues from this week, funny that its competition is another issue written by Matt Kindt
