Wonder Man #7 Review by Peter Silvestro (February 8, 2014)

Review: Issue-long fight is terrific but seems like padding to drag Wonder Man into a leading role in the tale; really cool but seems a bit superfluous. Easy to overlook in all the excitement, though. The epic as a whole? One of the best multi-comic crossovers, marked by a complex story, tight plotting, strong characterization, and consistent quality. And it actually tries to mean something in the end!

Comments: Part 4 of Operation Galactic Storm.

The battle on Earth continues to Wonder Man’s disadvantage until he finally catches on to the timing and is able to deliver a stunning blow to the villain when he reappears.
