Anyone know much about this? The mention of Earth-Prime made my ears perk up, so I’m at least interested…I liked the Batman RetroActive from last week, were the other two good?
Wonder Woman RetroActive was fun.
I was very disappointed that the reprint story featured in this issue was the first part of a two-parter.
And I think the art for the new story portion of this issue was lackluster.
I really looked forward to this comic, but it was a let-down for me, desite the cool guest-stars.
Here’s to hoping the other Retroactive JLA books are better.
Fun book! I love earth-prime stories.
The best of the Retroactive attempts I’ve read thus far. Which ain’t to say it’s great, but it’s pretty good. Sometimes the story tries too hard to be 70s (Green Arrow kvetching about disco), sometimes it doesn’t try hard enough (mentions of “hacking” are a little premature for the 70s), and sometimes they get it just right (check out WW’s groovy-mod disguise on Earth-Prime). The art is the closest I’ve seen thus far to what I remember of the 70s, and the pacing of the story was pretty spot-on. I wish all the RetroActive one shots had this level of care and detail.
