Crisis on Infinite Earths by Marv Wolfman

3.0

Man did this book quickly become a complete chore to read! I wanted to read it to learn about the beginning of the “modern” DC universe to help kickstart me into all the amazing books in the DC universe. At first I was intrigued, the book was obviously very dated (and had not aged well in terms of writing), but it was still enjoyable. However, the CONSTANT repetition of events was so tiresome. When something did progress the story (very slowly) it was interesting. But you had to get through the 500 word bubbles of filler per page for 30-50 pages before anything even happened. Long story short, I respect this book for what it is and what it did in its time, but go look at the synopsis on Wikipedia, and see how short the full story is told on there, and then wonder why on earth this book is almost 370 pages
