Salvation Run #4 of 7

As the cover for this issue shows, things turn very violent. The showdown between Gorrilla Grodd and Monsieur Mallah is very brutal. Sean Chen's art is extremely good here with the fight sequence being very easy to follow. Matthew Sturges characterizations of each of the villains is very good as well. We now have three camps with Lex Luthor, the Joker, and Vandal Savage in charge. With Martian Manhunter hanging around and reporting back to Batman, you can see where the intersection with Dwayne McDuffie's "Justice League of America" is headed. Matthew Sturges took over for Bill Willingham last issue and does a fine job getting through the halfway point of this miniseries.

Even though DC had to replace the writer midstream, this mini has not missed a beat and is still an entertaining read.
