I’ll be honest, I originally wasn’t going to pick this up because I felt it was a little cheesy of DC to being doing a politics book this close to the elections. But for whatever reason, I saw this on the stands and felt compelled to flip through it. The art alone pushed me to lay down the $2.99 and I’m not gonna lie, when I saw Wonder Woman had a dialogue balloon (albeit a small one) I couldn’t help myself. Surprisingly, the story itself was very intriguing. After an assassination plot on presidential candidates is revealed, the superheroes must volunteer to protect them. Green Arrow of course suggests that each hero be able to choose who they protect versus random assignment. By the end of the issue Green Arrow decides to fully endorse his chosen candidate, a decision that will change the way DC politics are done, and forcing other heroes to make their own endorsements.
