This book is so good and it has been from the beginning. #10 was no exception. The writing is energetic and intelligent. The artwork is dazzling and the characters are three-dimensional and very interesting.
I'm so sad that we only get two more issues of this terrific series. It's times like this that I wish DC would revive Adventure Comics, so we could see more continuing stories for concepts/characters that supposedly "can't carry their own titles."

Wow, I wish I read that series. I read instead this not very interesting series called Infinity, Inc. I know they blamed the art, but I have to say, it was the story.

I will say that #10 was about the best of the series. But that's faint praise on my part.

Lt. Marvel, you should try this Infinity Inc. #10 instead, for the conclusion of an awesome storyline:

Pre-Crisis, this was one of the greatest stories ever told with the Earth-2 heroes. The Ultra-Humanite arranged for six of the greatest heroes of the JSA to become corrupt and ruthless. Those six heroes race off to pursue their own selfish agendas, causing great havoc and battling both the rest of the JSA and the next generation of heroes, Infinity, Inc. In this closing chapter of the storyline, Infinity Inc confronts the gathered corrupt heroes as well as the Ultra-Humanite himself.

I have that one.

#10 isn't the best of that series, though. The one where Brainwave wiped the memory of Fury was the bestest!

I think the book was hobbled by having that inappropriate name attached to it (which I suppose DC felt it had to do to get the nostalgia readership to buy it). I too loved the original Infinty Inc, but this current book is quite good too on its own merits.

#10 was the best issue in awhile and probably of the entire series.

The writing is the only reason I'm still reading the book. I'm finding the artwork atrocious. Not only do I have a hard time telling the female characters apart (thank goodness they changed hair color), but a lot of the action sequences are dificult to follow. Stylistically, it just looks unexciting and somewhat flat. I really think the artwork killed the series more than anything. (That, and it wasn't the Infinity Inc. that people wanted to read about)

Looks like we will be getting a look at the real Infinity Inc. again in the JSA annual this summer, when Power Girl tries to go home.
