Tales From The Back Issue Bin!! Vol 1!!

Hey, Waffle here with the first installment of "Tales From The Back Issue Bin!!". Every week I'll be picking a random book from each section of our back issue bin, reading it, dissecting it, and criticizing it.

This weeks book is DARKHAWK #2, from the "$1.00 Comics" section. And believe me, it deserves to be in there.

Well, here we go. It simply starts off with the hero busting through a window screaming "I'M DARKHAWK! FREEZE!" Having never read the first issue, I have no idea who Bazin is, and why DARKHAWK(It's all caps because it was the 90's) is after him. A fight ensues until the Hobgoblin interferes, and attacks DARKHAWK. Now, where the hell did he come from? Another fight occurs, until DARKHAWK falls off the glider, and switches out of his costume. He returns home to find Spider-man swinging around his neighborhood. Another fight breaks out, this time between Hobgoblin and Spider-man. DARKHAWK changes into his costume and yells out another amazing line, "Hey Hobgoblin-- LET THAT HERO GO!" Fight, fight, fight. More fighting, and BAMF, ending. Yea, I'm sure reading the first issue would have made this all clear, but, eh, whatcha gonna do?

Over all, I'll give DARKHAWK #2, 2 out of 5 special gold stars.
Join me next week when I tackle the A:Misc section in
*cough*
