DC Countdown to Infinite Crisis
Too many names have sent the world of DC Comics reeling from an over abundance of shout and twist. The collection of artists working on the 80-page monster special,
Countdown to Infinite Crisis reads like a who's playing with the hot knives and forks in the DC universe frying pan.
From
the solicitation text direct: "Written by Geoff Johns, Greg Rucka and Judd Winick; Art by Rags Morales, Ed Benes, Phil Jimenez, Ivan Reis, Jesus Saiz, and various; Cover by Jim Lee and Alex Ross."
The project is set to feature all the major characters currently making names for themselves through their exploits in the DC universe. From Wonder Woman to Superman and Hawkman to Green Lantern, omissions will surely be seen as a sign of mediocrity.
On the claims that this will be "a project that will resonate for months to come" short work is made of the just exploded Grant Morrison architecture of the
Seven Soldiers mondo-series.
In light of events in Australia's Asia Pacific neighbours, the earthquake
crisis of Indonesia is looking more and more like the result of art and life running parallel.
Not only is the name,
Countdown to Infinite Crisis, a stark reminder of the sheer will of Mother Nature, but the cover of the said epicentric DC ripple shadows the ever going plight of officials and relatives looking for confirmation on the victims' identity.
