It's good but can it be great?

Dying Breath: 4.0 out of 5

This is one book I did not want to take a look at. I don’t like the concept of this cast as a team, but it is a new #1 and it is horror so here we go. I was wrong. I should have known better since Milligan was writing it, but I just don’t like Constantine being in the main DCU. The story is one hell of a mystery right out of the gate, but as it moves forward things begin to fall into place. I have to say that I do have a soft spot for seeing some heroes go down. The artwork was good for the most part, but certain panels seemed off to me. The standout scene was when you see this enormous Enchantress looming over a few supers. What worked was the introduction of the characters. Will it work when they become a “team”, I don’t know and that is what I am kinda on the fence about. Overall a good first issue, with plenty of mystery to have me coming back for more.

I would like to agree but I can't. For me the story/plot was weak, but the artwork made up for the writing imperfection.
