DC's Hanna Barbera relaunch had its hits and misses. Some were flawed since the beginning (Wacky Raceland), others became tedious halfway (Scooby Apocalypse, Future Quest) but if there's one of those titles that maintained its quality during its whole run was without a doubt The Flintstones.
Since the beginning, Mark Russell created a strong premise that was pretty faithful to the social commentary that the original cartoon offered but also improved and expanded its concept to make it much more relevant than ever. The execution of themes like family, consumerism, religion, race and sexuality among other things was always something compelling to see, particularly in the way how it was told since the book was full of satire but also never lost the heart of the story. Again, in many instances I consider it much better than Russell's own Prez since unlike that book, The Flintstones always focused on its plot and characters without feeling like just a bunch of ideas packed together.
The final issue is no different since Russell presents a quite heartwarming conclusion where he continues to ridicule humanity as a whole in their different aspects while also showing that there exists hope in each one of them no matter how much they might go against his own beliefs which perfectly summarizes how sometimes I felt about some of the ideas I was personally against.
Steve Pugh also deserves a lot of credit by creating a world full of life and detail that elevated the direction even more.
I don't know what to expect about Russell in the future, this might be one of the best books in recent years and it will be pretty hard to invent something near its quality but I'm hoping for the best.
