As much as I dislike Loeb's writing, here are some of my thoughts...
* The art by Finch was top-notch (ie. awesome!).
* The dialogue wasn't that bad (in Loeb standards).
* My biggest beef is that 'millions' are supposedly dead, but not a single non-superhero body can be seen in any panel.
* I actually kinda liked that panel with Janet. Very graphic, very harsh. One of the few moments, along with the last Xavier/Magneto panel, which shocked me.
* Overall, a better issue than the first.
STORY: 6/10
ART: 10/10
OVERALL: 8/10
