Convergence: The Question (2015) #2 by Greg Rucka

viera's review

2.0

It’s a serviceable plot. Themes of self sacrifice, redemption. But it’s handled with all the dexterity of a 5 year old in a snowsuit. The women all have the same personality. “Jealous much?” should be banned from written literature. I have never heard a woman outside of a Lizzie McGuire episode use that term. The conflict between Batwoman and Question is never addressed but they needed to be in a fight for some unneeded tension I guess. Two Face was the real hero of this with Renee being his fridge. The father was a good reference point for the main conflict which was quick and anticlimactic, but I wish it had been handled without Batwoman and redirected the frames of her pouting to action scenes. She’s just so useless in this. Huntress only slightly less so. Art: backgrounds are nearly nonexistent. Faces are consistent if stiff. Poses are nothing to study. Barely any action. Overall, a throwaway issue.
