![]() ![]() Let’s start with issue #1: The issue starts off with Elongated Man and Firehawk watching a mysterious box (which we find out contains one of Lex Luthor’s armors). But I will discuss that more after I do an issue by issue retrospective. There are a lot of characters that are in this story that either haven’t appeared in the New 52 universe or haven’t been portrayed as well as they once were. How does it stand up 10 years later? Continuity-wise: it never happened because DC relaunched the whole line with their New 52 initiative. I just love the way he accentuates the heroes’ bodies and makes them look like gods, which is ironic because this series shows how human our heroes really are. ![]() One of the things that initially drew me to this series was the fantastic covers by Michael Turner. It was much more personal and that is what I loved about it. To me this specific crisis was very unique because it was not on a big scale like Crisis on Infinite Earth’s or Infinite Crisis. If there is one thing DC comics are known for, it is their crises. The DC Universe had a completely different landscape back then. And I remember when it first came out people either loved it or hated it and I was one of them that loved it. I had only been reading Comics for a few years at that point and it was one of my first BIG DC events. ![]() It’s hard for me to believe that it has been 10 years since Identity Crisis came out. ![]() This review does contain “spoilers,” but since it’s been out for 10 years, I’m not all that worried about spoiling things for people. ![]()
