Convergence: Justice Society of America #2 Review

Title: Convergence: Justice Society of America #2
Story: One Last Time
Characters: Flash (Jay Garrick), Doctor Fate (Kent Nelson), Hawkman (Carter Hall), Green Lantern (Alan Scott)
Creators: Dan Abnett (writer), Tom Derenick (artist)
Publication Date: May 2015
Available In: Print Digital

Summary: With the arrival of Qward's war machine that they appropriately call 'the weapon,' the four present heroes of the Justice Society accept the challenge and go off to fight it.

In the middle of Metropolis, the weapon is tearing the city asunder, and the citizens of Metropolis are seen fleeing for their lives. Charging ahead is the mighty Justice Society who work together to both protect the fleeing masses, and figure out a way to keep the weapon from doing more damage. Alan Scott shields the people of Metropolis from debris with his power ring, Carter Hall slams some cars out of the way, Jay Garrick grabs any people he can and gets them away from the danger, and Kent Nelson uses his magic to put out the conflagration the weapon started.

Convergence: Justice Society of America #1 Review

Title: Convergence: Justice Society of America #1
Story: Society
Characters: Flash (Jay Garrick), Doctor Fate (Kent Nelson), Hawkman (Carter Hall),  Green Lantern (Alan Scott)
Creators: Dan Abnett (writer), Tom Derenick (artist)
Publication Date: April 2015
Available In: Print Digital

Summary: It's a regular day in domed Earth-2 Metropolis, and GBC's Alan Scott is on the air at MPSB radio delivering the news. At least what passes for news in a domed city. At one of the local hospitals, Jay Garrick pays a visit to his old friend, Dr. Kent Nelson, who is lying in a coma. He updates the unconscious Kent on his life and how hard it's been for him to adjust to old age. As a man used to always being up to speed, he's not happy that it takes him 45 minutes to get out of a bath or that arthritis makes it difficult for him to do the things he used to do with ease. Things such as climbing a flight of stairs, remembering names, remembering where he puts things, normal, standard stuff.
