Yes, because they
DID fight(ish), it WAS a misunderstanding and
they DID team up to take down the bad guy. It’s
the crossover formula that has worked for
decades on end. Marz probably figured, ‘if ain’t
broke, I ain’t fixin it.’
And no, because
despite this there WERE some surprises. Some
people will like them, some will despise them.
Witchblade and Devi have a mystical energy
clash, have a vision and it’s settled, just like
that. Tama gets a can of two on one whoop-ass,
as advertised, but his great and intricate plan
has the mother of all holes in it and he gets
arrested.
It was different
in that sense, the same in others, and probably
will be subject to a whole lot of hating in the
online community. You know, of the ‘they didn’t
even fight’ variety.
Overall, an
improvement on the first issue, with some more
great artwork. Some flaws, saw good points. A
mixed bag, you might say. Virgin comics and Top
Cow fans will like it, others may well be split.
If you’re looking for girls tearing people to
shreds with appendages that shouldn’t be there,
you may be disappointed. Violence is toned down
this issue.
On the plus side,
Rahul is Bollywood to the bone, and one of the
Tama’s minions is a particularly well-known
celebrity. . .
