This issue, visually, looked as good as the first two. While there were, still, a certain number of balloon boobies, it was easier to overlook than the last issue. Maybe I'm just getting used to it. The art itself moves well. The coloring and line work together made everything easy enough on the eyes.
The plot totally lost me. Why? Because this issue relied heavily on information about two characters from the Young Justice universe, about which I know absolutely nothing. So by the end of the issue I had figured out what was going on, but meanwhile I just kept going "Huh? And who is that? And what's she doing? And what the hell was that all about?" And so it suffered. As a crossover, and me a SpyBoy reader, they couldn't keep me up to speed. Which made me wonder if the Young Justice readers have been equally confused in reading the last two issues, which made perfect sense to me.
We'll see where it goes. I freely admit that I read this for SpyBoy and crew. And particularly because I can't get SpyBoy any other way. If it keeps being so Young Justice heavy, they may lose me completely.
