REVIEW by Brian Fisher
Can it be true that a tie-in issue is actually better than the main title of an event? Well, so far I've been unimpressed by the quality of Final Crisis, but Requiem was a fantastic story, expounding on what happened to the Martian Manhunter before, during, and after his death. Doug Mahnke's art makes this book, and I don't think I've ever seen better work out of him. Peter Tomasi, who I've never really been a fan of in the past writes the script like the Manhunter's biggest fan, filling every page and every panel with a palpable emotion worthy of such a long-running and beloved character. This is definitely a book worth picking up!
