Review of
Wednesday Comics Number 3, July 22, 2009
Four out of five stars
Very much like the Sunday supplement comics
While this
publication features well-known comic book characters, it has the fundamental
form of a Sunday comic supplement. The fold is along the long axis and each
particular story takes up one full page, so it is of necessity a brief segment
of a more lengthy story.
The characters
featured are Batman, Kamandi, Superman, Deadman, Green Lantern, Metamorpho,
Teen Titans, Supergirl, Metal Men, Wonder Woman, Sgt. Rock. Flash, Catwoman, and
Hawkman. Reading them reminded me of my younger years when the story line in
the Sunday newspaper comics were different from what appeared in the dailies.
It was frustrating to read only a short segment and then have to wait a week to
see the next installment.
The stories are
interesting, which is what generates the frustration. For if they were uninteresting,
you would not experience the impatience of longing for more.
