Broken Trinity #2 Review

Broken Trinity #2
So, I really didn't want to write a review on this since there is only one more issue coming out and the series is running extraordinarily late. The series was solicited as being a summer crossover. October's around the corner and it's still needs to finish up. However, I felt it to be my blogorific duty to let the readers of Doc's Comic Blog know what this crossover is all about.

Speaking of the word crossover, this series so far has had absolutely no impact on the regular Witchblade series. The previous issue of the regular Witchblade series is all about Danielle's fight with some club guy, Sarah and Danielle talking and ends with a rabbi getting killed.

No mention of a giant Irish ice guy who has a third relic to the "broken trinity" or the return of Angelus.

Nice "crossover," it sure "crosses over" into the other series'.

Also, can I just say I'm really tired of the cryptic asian store owner. Seriously, just give the readers a little insight as to who the hell this guy is and why he knows everything about everything but doesn't like to mention anything to anyone. He just gets a little redundant as a character and could use a little fleshing out.

The art is the one thing the series has going for it. Stjepan Sejic's work is always good and I enjoy looking at every panel.

This whole crossover seems to have lost whatever its original intentions were. Luckily, there is only one more issue left and we can probably expect it out by late January 2025. Don't worry though, I'll take one for the team and actually spend some hard-earned student loan money on the issue and review it for all to see and avoid.
1.5/5 stars

  1. I'm confused.

    Does the rabbi die in Broken Trinity #2 or in an issue of Witchblade?

  2. He dies at the end of Witchblade. Sorry for the confusion.
