Something Rotten this Way Comes

First off, that is not a Shakespeare reference, it's a Bradbury reference, which is a Shakespeare reference, so maybe the title of the post is a highbrow reference, instead of an obscure sci-fi reference. But moving on.

Two months ago, I reviewed Animal Man and Swamp Thing #12 with mixed results. I spent most the time geeking out and going on overly long rants about how awesome Animal Man is. (It is.) I'll try to avoid that this week. Oh, and I hate myself for the ending joke. I had to wait two months...not one. Damn you, DC!

Rotworld: Prequel

Rotworld. The mega cross over book of the year. Sure you can have your Court of Owls. Your Avengers vs X-Men. But none shall hold a candle to Rotworld, the Animal Man and Swamp Thing Cross over. (Featuring other books in the Dark family.)

For two reasons. One, every book that will be apart of this cross over will be good. (I'm looking at you Red Hood. And you...Avengers vs X-Men.) And two, more than two issues are written by Scott Snyder. Let us dive into Rotworld Prequel.

This is spoiler heavy, so If you want to read them, do not read this. I can't recommend these two enough, and they aren't bad jumping on points for new readers to either of these series.
