Djinn is going to help her teammate to find a lost loved one but that jourmey could be more dangerous than any of them anticipated.
An anniversary issue has arrived and I've to say that I've enjoyed this one much more than other recent examples.
Adam Glass uses this oversized chapter to deliver the Secret Origin of Crush and how that connects her to her parent. Crush's early days draw clear parallels to Superman's but the writer does this on purpose to play with the idea of what means to be a hero and how childhood can form your fate. The way how Crush's parents are portrayed completely different from the usual responsible Kents though, they were basically drug addicts who somehow got the responsibility of a child, the best part about this though is that Glass doesn't create one-dimensional junkies and instead makes them compelling people who despite of their bad habits still tried to take care of their daughter which is something that you don't see that often and is welcomed.
The friendship between Crush and Djinn is also further explored which makes their contrast between their personalities and connection much stronger (and there's a hint that it could become more than that?). Plus, the sub-plot about Lobo's involvement is still being developed and kept as a mystery.
Robson Rocha handles the art and is really solid with beautiful characters and a vibrant style.
There's even a second feature focusing on Roundhouse suited during the time when everyone thought he was dead and this also gives us a bigger insight about his personality and past including the complicated dynamic with his sister, it was more emotional than expected. Max Dunbar's artwork gets the job done in terms of storytelling.
Quite content packed and entertaining. Definitely got my money worth.
