My rating: 5 of 5 stars
A lot of great twists and turns in this finale, as SHOULD always be the case in a time-loop superhero adventure focused on landing that perfect run.
And yes, it's very, very satisfying. Loved all the characters. A lot. I came away with a big ass grin on my face, and that's hardly always the case. Fortunately, this story filled me up with love and hope as well as a sense of awe.
And yes, it continued to be delightfully funny, an R-Rated Deadpool meets My Hero Academia. Lighter, perhaps, than The Boys, and less truly dark than Invincible, it still shines with creative twists and I have almost nothing bad to say about it.
The almost: the whole sequence with the Alchemist was somewhat meh and I'd have preferred to get the core reveals some other way. The build-up and locations (including Malta) were otherwise fantastic, and I'm sure others would have enjoyed the whole Ava thing more, but this is a tiny quibble in an otherwise fantastic run. :)
Totally recommend.
Personal note:
If anyone reading my reviews might be interested in reading my own SF, I'm going to be open to requests. Just direct message me in goodreads or email me on my site. I'd love to get some eyes on my novels.
