Action Comics #1005 - Review

2 years ago By kevin

Action Comics opens up with a storytelling device that has so far remained consistent with Bendis’s run on the title: a shot of a reporter’s desk at the Daily Planet. I greatly appreciate this as carryover from issue to issue. In some ways, it is reminiscent of a “Previously on” recapping device from other mediums and clearly a Marvel flair that Bendis has brought to DC. It’s a great way to get any reader pulled into the current arc without having to go into super detail on everything that has preceded it.
