Mini Review: Truth & Justice #4 (8.5/10)

First Truth & Justice chapter with Superman is totally different from Vixen's previous issue. We have more words and more complicated story.Superman is investigating situations when prisoners are found in their homes without knowledge of how they were getting there. When a villain appears it seems to have something to do with teleportation. 

In the background of this story writer Brandon M. Easton (screenwriter for animated Transformers and Avengers and writer of Mister Miracle story in Future State: Superman of Metropolis is solving a question) is about racism at police and chance of Afro-Americans for their defense against injustice of law enforcers.

Eatsman is one of the wordy writers but it gives him an opportunity to better characterise and richer story. You often have four dialogues or captions in one panel (what we know from Stan Lee or Chris Claremont), it is most visible at the scene when Superman is in a political talk show. But this is a thing where the tablet’s format is very good because you don’t have so little of the picture in these panels. 

And it is good to have this space as a chapter illustrated by Jahnoy Lindsay who you can know from Hulk and Luke Cage stories. His Superman and other people are sharp and not so detailed but it actually fits the story. I will remember him as one of new talents at Big 2.

We have an off course cliffhanger at the end of chapter and I’m really curious how it will be solved. Next chapter, with the middle of this story, is planned for February 2nd.
