I was delighted to see Etrigan and a few other interestingly title characters do battle with some Amazons until this cricket saves the day when I first jumped in, but things went right down hill as soon as the writer decided to spend more than two panels telling this guy's origin. My opinion is that they could of just totally skipped the origin and left it a mystery. If they would have just jumped right into the other bug characters joining the resistance against the Amazons, I think people would have enjoyed this one shot a little bit more.
Then things pretty much settle down until the Amazons attack the little band of rebels and the witch character is snuffed out. Right when things were finally starting to get fun again, BANG, now it is over!! See ya later, alligator!! OOPPs, I mean cricket...
If this is the guy who is going to be doing pencils on Morrison's big Superman project, then I'm not impressed. There were a great deal of panels where I found myself squinting just to understand what was going on in some of those smaller panels. It was like reading Batman & Robin #6! I'm not a giant DC nerd so I don't know much about Morales, but one thing is for sure, he needs to step up his game if he is to put out a top tier book EVERY month!! If this big DC reboot/relaunch/renumbering/re-something becomes plagued by delays (which happens to Morrison books quite often), then things are gonna fall apart fast over there! They'll lose regular readers, let alone gain potential younger ones.
