Bendis needs more practise with these characters. They don't sound like themselves.

I'm finding it difficult to muster up enthusiasm for this event so much i even forgot it was a thing.
Is this an important event that's going to have lasting consequences or is it inconsequential? Asking so I can decide whether to pick it up.

However it's good to see Jason take up a starring role in a DCU wide event again.

Is Jason still wearing a mask under his mask?

He's extra like that.

That's the way Bendis writes. One of the reasons I don't like his writing a lot is that he doesn't write distinctive voices that well so often. Another one, that he repeats information every few panels. Here he does twice, speaking about the circumstances with the agencies being under siege by Leviathan, and with Barbara's and Oliver's whereabouts.

I cannot blame him, writing takes time and he's writing like five books at the same time, right? But eh, still, it reads, I don't know, plain, I guess.

(But I wasn't going to read this even. But here I am, reading it. Or glancing throughout it. Geez)

Is Jason still wearing a mask under his mask?

He wears a domino mask, but also a mask in his mouth. They don't overlap, so... I guess it doesn't really count? (not that he wouldn't, for the dramatics)

I thought this was a Superman event. Did Bendis secretly want to write Batman and got turned down by the editors or something?
