Who is Leviathan?
That is a question that many characters ask throughout. It is asked too much; it attempts to build this into a huge whodunnit, but the payoff is not a good one.
Art is excellent. Maleev is a master.
The story starts out with all of the major world intelligence organizations being taken down in the same day. Cool opening move; but then the motives behind it aren't really explained well (because they don't actually really work). The dialogue is often solid, but Bendis doesn't seem to have the same of knowledge of the various DC characters like he did in the Marvel universe (the Avengers were all well developed, quite different, yet very true to their natures; here, Green Arrow and the Question and Plastic Man don't seem to resemble themselves ).
It has its moments, but is largely unsatisfying and forgetful. Tough for me to write, because Mr. Bendis is my favorite all-time comic writer.
