rebus's review

3.5

Moore continues to bring realism into the moribund super hero genre with his post modern take on the legal troubles that would ensue when anyone has super powers, and the marketing angle and many other elements of the series certainly were an inspiration for the Boys. My only real issue with it was a sequence attempting to sum up the last few decades that falsely claimed that there was a nobility to the 60s (I have to say OK Boomer to Mr. Moore in this case). I did delight that he said the Dreamworld leads to madness, simply because I hope it's snark toward the hack Neil Gaiman.
