So Grant Morrison (and friends) finally finished his magnum opus (minus sensus?) on the Final (for now) Crisis to befall the DC Multiverse. And in the end, I'm not sure I know what happened. Which is not to say I didn't try. And it's not to say that I didn't enjoy it either. I enjoyed it quite a lot. The action was big, the character count was huge, and the stakes may never have been higher. This definitely continues his approach in All Star Superman of putting every idea out there. And it's impressive. But awfully confusing. Like listening to a song in Esperanto, I might enjoy it, but I can't honestly say I understood all the words.
As for the art, I was taken aback that this issue was all Doug Mahnke. I didn't have a problem with the art in Final Crisis #6 because for me it flowed pretty seamlessly. It wasn't as stellar as the first couple issues, but it was consistent and it did the job. I really couldn't always say who did what page, at least until I go to the last few pages. Mahnke has a distinct style. It's crisp and clean, but a little head-on. His figures have a touch of stiffness to them. I don't mind it overall, but it was kind of a jump from what we have seen previously in this title.
So when i saw that issue #7 was all Mahnke, I was a little worried. But I got swept up pretty quickly. Every panel has some incredible piece of machinery or a beautiful new character model. It was exhilarating.
Back to the plot. It definitely lost me at times. I get that time and space were breaking down and that this could account for some of the jumps and confusion. But i really didn't get who the evil vampire monitor was at the end, and I'm not completely satisfied with Nix Uoton storyline either.
In the end, it was a fantastically-imagined story, but I feel like big portions of it were only fully-realized in Morrison's head. Now the DC Multiverse has to pick itself up, dust itself off, and get on with business. Like it's done many times before. I don't know what the long-term consequences of this story will be, other than that Darkseid is dead (for now). But for a big-time action story, it was a fun (and unusual) ride.
Art: 5 - Excellent
Why can’t anyone give this a fair and reasonable rating? It’s either 1 or 5?
FIrst, there are some middle-of-the-road reviews and scores on he site. FOr me personally, I really debated giving this a 4 on art and story. In the end, I was just interested and excited by the story enough to give it a 5. And the art was a big part of that. I can’t truly say that this was a perfect comic, but I’m also not ready or willing to dwell on its flaws just yet. For now, my 5/5 stands.
