I liked this because it introduced me to a bunch of heroes and villains I didn't know anything about, I kind of like the sci-fi/cosmic thing too. The little boy totally in love with Starfire was pretty funny, but not as funny as Forerunner deciding the hunky warrior guy was now her sex slave and his trying to resist her. I liked how Forerunner's story ended, the final line was great. After enjoying Jim Starlin's Mystery in Space series, I've kept my ear to the ground for more DC Comics space opera, and the first book in that vein to come out since then is this, a collection of an eight-issue miniseries of the same (awesome) title. It was all right. Not as good as Mystery in Space; the story was a pretty bog-standard zombie/plague one. The arcs for the main characters (Adam Strange, Animal Man, and Starfire) weren't the best. For example, Adam Strange is called to task for abandoning the people of Rann for year when he swore to protect them, and so he is replaced. There's good potential there-- obviously it wasn't Adam's fault he left Rann, but you can't blame them for wanting a new protector. (Though waiting for him to come back before they do this is highly bizarre!) But his replacement is an arrogant jerk who ends up going evil and being killed (even though they cure all of the other characters who go evil), which totally robs the plotline of any dramatic potential it might have had-- wouldn't it have been more interesting to see him working with/against a well-meaning, competent replacement? (Adam still has a cool costume, though.) The other characters suffer from similar problems. The artwork (which switches pencillers halfway through) is nothing exceptional. A disappointingly average effort in the end.
