This is the same formula they used for 52. Take some B-list (or less) characters and show their involvement in some really big event. Not bad. The art's consistently good. The "history" or the multiverse gets kind of repetitious, but they've got my attention, I'm curious where this is going.

I was reading for Jason Todd but there wasn’t much Jason. I need more context to properly enjoy the story on its own. Wasn’t bad tho

Loving it so far. 52's pattern of storytelling was a success in my eyes, and this follows it in all the effective ways with different characters.

I honestly thought this was outstanding. It focused on only a few characters who, I assume, will play big roles in Final Crisis. It gave time to depth and patience to narrative. It was properly done across the board, I think. It's slow, but it's detailed, and, sometimes, that's what you're really after in comics, since it doesn't always happen that way.
