    Absolutely gorgeous!

    I only wish we had more info; the solicits have been kind of vague as to the JLI's actual involvement in this book, and I don't want to commit to a 12 issue series until I know their presence will be substantial.

    From the solicits at least we can suspect than Ice is the femme fatale from this detective story.

    I expected as much when we saw the first preview of her in Chance's office.

    Although hopefully it's a subversion because...could anyone really buy Ice as a Femme Fatale or a suspect in an assasination?

    Not really, but that wouldn't stop King...

    He was not the one I wanted in charge of her. I fully expect she'll be mangled before this book's through.

    I just miss Guy and Ice together. Apparently she's about to become a serial killer, though. At least in the books I've read, the answer to the primary question of King's work ("Did Scott kill himself/Did Adam do it/Did Wally do it?") is always "yes, and there is no twist."

    So yes, she killed someone. Because that's King's track record thus far. Hurray. She doesn't even have the fanbase Wally does to correct what he does to her.
    May we never forget:

    I don't think anyone is going to take this as canon (isn't it Black Label too?) so I wouldn't be too worried about lasting damage, but I feel like since he's writing a detective story there's a likelihood there will be a twist and it's not the main suspect.

    I'm just trying to stay positive...

    They're going to make me buy this book off art alone. Damn it all.

    I want that to be true, but she gets used so infrequently it may just be considered her touchstone story in the modern era. Still, I suppose we'll see what happens in the book and afterward, but I really can't be excited knowing what he did to Adam Strange. That book was great for Michael Holt, but DC shouldn't have let King do that to another hero like Adam.

    I really like the Phil Noto style art.
    At least it looks pretty.
