Fire & Ice: When Hell Freezes Over #1

/ / Comics

A follow-up to Fire & Ice: Welcome to Smallville, a new mini-series kicks off with Fire & Ice: When Hell Freezes Over #1 setting the two heroes (who are struggling with their swapped powers) in New Kooey. Most of the issue involves showcasing the town and Ice struggling with not understanding her new more destructive fire powers. Fire seems a bit more in control but at a loss on what to do with her new ice-based powers.

Zatanna #2

/ / Comics

I was more interested in who was included in the pages of Zatanna #2 than what occurred. Mostly the comic features Zatanna popping up here and there with a magical sword shoved through her chest that no one else can see (making it hard for the character to explain the situation to others she comes across) and only the person who put it there can remove. At only the second issue in the series it does already feel a bit like filler.

Zatanna #1

/ / Comics

Zatanna‘s new magic tour gets off to a bad start when members of her crew are pulled into various realities within the Astral Plane during rehearsals in the opening issue of the new series. Aside from the opening, where we get a little of Zatanna working with her crew, the comic’s main focus is Zatanna jumping here and there to get her friends back to the real world before confronting the Lady White as to the reasoning behind her attack.

Zatanna: Bring Down the House #5

The five-issue mini-series concludes with Zatanna confronting her past and her father and reclaiming her magic. With the help of the Stranger, the pair arrive at Zatanna’s childhood home (literally as Zatanna is transformed into a much younger version of herself in the home she grew up in, more or less). The issue also weaves back in the Order of the Rabbits who also come to help out in what the Stranger refers to as a war for the soul of magic.

Zatanna: Bring Down the House #4

Zatanna: Bring Down the House #4 offers a calm before the storm. The arrival of John Constantine allows for Zatanna to momentarily leave her current troubles involving the Casters and talking bunnies fighting over her as her ex whisks her away to Paris for a bit of R&R. This pause allows the story, and it’s lead character, a bit of room to breathe as well as catch up the reader on just what the hell is going on here and why everyone is after Zatanna.
