Deathtrap Going Better Than Expected


Just read issue 12 of Deathtrap: Part One and it wasn't a piece of crap.

Well, it wasn't particularity good either. If Jericho is going to be bad, then make him bad, not some whimpering fool. I miss the days of Evil Joey in Azarath. Now, he's only caring about not being like his father, yet he initiated this "Deathtrap". Crazy guy.

Spoiler Alert! DO NOT READ IF YOU DON'T WANT A REVIEW OF ISSUE #12.

So, this is after Joey (inside Cyborg) tried to murder the Titans and beat up Beast Boy pretty well (he admits that he had to turn into a salamander to get proper healing). You can practically feel the animosity between Raven and Beast Boy. Apparently, she denied him.

So, anyway, Ravager is still off of the radar after the whole Dark Side Club thing and Kid Devil is not so devilish anymore (bring Eddie's powers back!). Troia, Cyborg, Red Arrow, Raven, Beast Boy, Starfire, and Flash decide to fake Cyborg still being controlled by Jericho to bring out the Vigilante, who wants him dead for some reason or another. They do indeed manage to lure out the Vigilante, who shoots Cy in the head. How's that for a cliffhanger?

I liked the artwork. Unzueta wasn't bad. It's softer than some other issues of DC I have read lately. Keep up the good work.
