Frost King. Sounds like a refrigerator brand you’d find at Lowe’s or Home Depot. Methinks I’ll give this frosty event a red hot pass.

It looks like somebody smashed Joel Schumacher's take on Mr. Freeze into Lobo.
I'm actually having some fun with this one. this first issue felt like a solid opening episode to Justice League/Justice League:Unlimited, or a lighter-tone Young Justice. There were one or two eye-rolling lines but overall everyone bounced off each other well and behaved in-characters. the one thing holding it back in my opinion is the art, while I'm not a huge Porter guy, his art doesn't usually distract me so much (the way he draws black male hair always irks me) but it couldn't all the way look past it here. It's not HIDEOUS but it's just so bulky and awkward, it kinda robs the story of that element of epicness a little. in a lot a ways it feels like Scott Snyder's first Justice League issue (I still love that opening arc) but Snyder had the superior artist imo. the last two pages look really good, had they swapped the artists I feel it would have dug it more than I do; but I still really enjoyed this first issue. I'm definitely going to follow this one all the way.
"another"? how many events center on Wonder Woman? in what ways does this focus on Batman more than any other hero that appears in this event? if anything it's a Black Adam and Wonder Woman at best, if not simply a Justice League event.

Copied from another thread-
"I read it and liked it. It feels like a good one off episode. It actually reminded me of the CW crossovers."
Who'd have thought the Superman book would be the one to get me completely invested in this event. I was always going to read it just because I wanted to see what some of these characters have coming but I feel the Superman book does the best job of selling the Frost King for me. I liked his origin and in intrigued to see how he got from where we leave him in this book to now. The actual Superman story was solid too, I like when DC isn't trying so hard to sell the "strong independent woman" angle with Lois Lane and just let's her do her job and help people if she can. I loved the running op-ed throughout the book, and by the time Superman came in the scene it felt like I was watching the animated series before I knew it. let's hope they keep this momentum in the other books (which is always the challenge of these events).

I feel like the story so far are pretty solid,
just not that Event-worthy
