Final Crisis has been dubbed as “The Day The Bad Guys Win”. Its DC’s darkest night (NIGHT, not Knight). For a good amount of time, I have been a large fan of the Spectre. Anyone who read Infinite Crisis will remember the Spectre as the entity that tried to kill all Magic in the DC Universe. However, he was finally put back in control when merged with the spirit of recently deceased Gotham city cop, Crispus Allen.
After Infinite Crisis, Spectre was given a short series, but not much noise was made to let people know about it. The series was a look at Allen adjusting to his new role, and coming to accept it. The character of the Spectre was taken to new depths as it was explained to Crispus by the Spectre Entity that it is not his job to decide who is innocent or guilty for what they do; simply to be God’s right hand of vengence.
Now, we come to the 5 part Final Crisis tie-in that revolves around Crispus as the Spectre. DC kicks this book into high gear in a quick way. Many people know the Martian Manhunter was one of the first victiums of this Crisis. As a Spectre fan, I’ve often wondered why the Spectre would never choose to go after men such as the Joker or Lex Luthor. Sadly though, as a comic fan, we call all pretty easily figure out why. BUT, tying into the Crisis, DC lets Spectre actually do what he does best, and attempt to seek Vengence for his fallen Super-buddy.
The story is fast paced, and gets back to the spirit of the old Spectre comics with ironic death and such in a big way.
*SPOILER ALERT*
Spectre gets vengeance on the two men who brought in Martian Manhunter, Dr Light and Effigy. In a true nod to the old ironic deaths of the original Spectre Comics, Spectre turns Dr Lights body into a melting candle, and sets his head on fire. After a few minutes, he himself snuffs out the flame in front of three girls Light just attempted to rape. It was truly shocking to see DC end Dr Light’s career, considering he was in a big way what started DC’s major turnaround back in Identity Crisis. At the same time, I also got a good laugh out of the irony of Light being turned into a candle.
In the end, its a very compelling story, and you really have to feel for Crispus. The story was originally set to be a 3 parter, but DC has since changed it to 5. Hopefully, they will continue to have the solid story to fill out this Mini bordering on Maxi series, and we will get a look inside the character of the Spectre we haven’t seen since “Day of Judgment.”
Final Vote
9 out of 10 *Gotta leave some space for it to up.*
Till next time, this is your Final Crisis Correspondent, Kyle.
