Whether it's poor editing or just poor scripting, I had huge problems with Final Crisis and his work on Batman before the...
I had misgivings on this based on The Last Angry Geek's review of the first issue. I shouldn't have been so concerned. This is a really good start to the series, and I'm definitely going to read the next trade.
