Trinity 52
It's finally over. As expected the cliffhanger from last issue is dealt with quickly, as a flashback. There isn't even any fight, since all heroes are next to the trinity to protect them. The CSA can only fled. Another part of the issue is dedicated to wrapping up all the various plots. I'll just mention them here for the record: - Enigma [...]
Trinity 50
At the end of last issue I was afraid that the world would be repaired with just a “magic wand” gesture, and it’s basically what happens, but what lead to it was more interesting than I anticipated. Krona is finally in front of the Worldsoul and starts asking her all sorts of questions. But the Worldsoul doesn’t understand, she only [...]
Trinity 48
Last issue Batman came up with a plan to defeat the evil Trinity, which we see at work in this story. The Trinity share the plan in unison, as if they were one facet of one single being. Then they simultaniously fight the enemy and recruit people to help them with their plan. They're successful and nobody saw it coming, not Krona or Morgaine: they [...]
Trinity 46
The focus of this last part of the series seems to be how different the Trinity is, and how the other heroes and friends deal with them. As Gods they can see the big picture and heal the whole world, but they're also blind to their own people and feelings. I wish they would just stay as Gods, but it's obvious they're slowly starting to listen to [...]
Trinity 45
After dealing with the annoying loved ones, the Trinity finally arrive at Castle Branek, where they deal with the CSA easily and quickly. The CSA are then sent back to Anti-matter earth by Enigma. Meantime Morgaine is still trying to find the power to stop the Trinity, and in the end he finds it on the moon: Krona himself. The backup story [...]
Trinity 42
The Trinity is now going from city to city to restore them as they were before, eliminating the villain's version of the cities. Joker in Gotham is one example. Then they go and let the JSI choose if they want to stay as they are or return to normal. They obviously go back to normal. And they vanish again, while their loved ones still want to talk [...]
Trinity 40
The first story starts with a brief interlude about Krona, the GLC and the return of the CSA. Then we go back to the big battle, which feels epic at first, but then the Trinity snap their fingers (metaphorically) and the world is back to normal. That was easy... On one hand I've had enough of fight scenes, so I'm glad that's already solved. On the [...]
Trinity 37
The war between the 3 Gods continues here, and reaches a climax that shocks them out of their madness. They finally realize their fight is pointless, and start thinking about peace. It's ironic that Wonder Woman both started and ended the fight. This flashback is over, and now they have to deal with their loved ones. In the backup story the [...]
Trinity 36
The Trinity is back so this is the beginning of the third act in this mega series. But we still get a narration of their history. This time they have a fight and each go their separate ways. This obviously parallels the events of Infinite Crisis. It was nice to have a full story featuring the Trinity, even though they're different. The backup [...]
Trinity 33
In the main story we learn more about Kellel and Dinanna and we see the reminagining of what happened with Wonder Woman and Max Lord. I love seeing the Trinity again, even if it's just a narration and they're a different version of themselves. The new costumes look cool, I like what Bagley is doing with them. The backup story is all about [...]
Trinity 31
The opposing arcane groups are almost playing a chess game, with Tarot and Charity basically dictating what to do. One problem I have with Tarot is that she's often just an object used by Morgaine, she doesn't really have the power to change things with her own will. The revelation of the new villain joining the evil team was lost on me. He [...]
Trinity 27
In this issue we finally see the scene that was teased way back in issue 1, when Konvikt joins Morgaine and Enigma. It's clear that Morgaine is tricking Konvikt, promising him what he wants without telling him the consequences. I am surprised that Morgaine doesn't get rid of Graak, certainly she knows how to communicate with Konvikt without the [...]
Trinity 26
Tarot's role is finally explained thanks to Charity's help, even though she doesn't even know it. Tarot is connected to the sould of the world, and her job is to guide humanity through that connection. But she's not the first one, many other women before her had that connection. This is typical of the DC characters, they all have a history and [...]
Trinity 22
After an eventful issue we get an action issue with little important information. The order is also inverted so first we get a the backup story about Khufu in ancient Egypt, who I assume is supposed to be an old incarnation of Carter Hall, Hawkman. He gets a vision and re-lives all his future reincarnations in just a few seconds, and decides to [...]
Trinity 21
This issue finally shows us what happened to the evil trinity. Not only that but we also learn more about their past. Morgaine's past is tightly integrated into the Arthurian legend. I didn't get much from her story, the flashbacks are too disconnected to make for a organic story for me. Enigma's past in the antimatter universe reveals more [...]
Trinity 18
Here starts the new arc of this series, a world without the Trinity. Obviously there's a lot that's changed, so we slowly learn about this new world, thanks to Lois's report. She's a very different Lois, yet we can still recognize her personality. It's just been changed by the course of history. However even though this is a new world, there [...]
Trinity 17
This is effectively the end of the first long arc of the series. The evil trinity have reached their goal and seems to have replaced the trinity. But the last page hints that what's happened is not exactly what Morgaine planned, instead Enigma is happy about that. Reality has changed, but how? Is it just the Trinity replaced by Morgaine and [...]
Trinity 15
This issue was a very nice surprise. The CSA arc was barely done, I was expecting a few issues of the trinity recuperating and working on the big puzzle, instead this issue starts with a bang! The Trinity has already found the evil trinity! We do get a flashback with explanation of how they got there, but it was really cool to see them so [...]
Trinity #10
This issue starts with Sun-Chained-In-Ink (that's not long...) stealing Luthor's blood. It was cool to see Lois at the center of it, even though the mystery created by her narration didn't last long. Next we go to JLA and a whole lot of explanations about the Anti-matter universe and the Crime Syndicate. Frankly I was a little confused, I felt [...]
Trinity #9
After an issue of relative calm, this is the start of a new story arc involving Swashbuckler. His goal is to steal artifacts of the Trinity's friend, foe and foundation, for a total of 9. The first one is Etta's badge, which is given to Morgaine in the last page of the main story. At this point I don't see the need to disguise her identity, it's [...]
