Wow, Black Adam is not joke.

Reseña de Roberto Jiménez para Fancueva:http://www.fancueva.com/comic/52-la-t...52: La Tercera Guerra Mundial, mala manera de atar cabos sueltos52 ha sido una serie semanal disfrutable al cien por cien. Aun con sus momentos de bajón y sus semanas que avanzaban bien poco, lo cierto es que el resultado final es un muy notable cómic de superhéroes. Además, debería servir para que las dos grandes, DC y Marvel, se diesen cuenta de que hay muchos personajes abandonados por el camino a los que se les p...

I'm a big fan of 52. I've been a big fan since it was originally being published, and I became a bigger fan the better the weekly comic got, when Charlie died so poignantly, when Steel got to defeat Lex Luthor, when Booster Gold finally found his niche, when Lobo quit his brief tenure as space pope, when Sobek chomped down on Osiris...Ah, about that. Kind of the big turn that started Black Adam's descent into berserker madness, that led to, well, World War III. But the full story of Black Adam's...

Not nearly as good as it should have been, but it's still an interesting read.

This was pretty okayish. 2.5 stars.It starts with Black adam after the loss of his family attacking every country and well fighting heroes first the Teen titans and while thats happening we follow Martian Manhunter as he ponders quetsion of being human and through him we see various viewpoints and heroes after the Infinite crisis aftermath and the events of "52" and its amazing and his life also, then JSA vs Black adam in china which has huge ramifications and changes a lot of things. World war

A weak tie-in to 52 that focuses largely on Martian Manhunter, who is nowhere to be found in the original book. Beyond the Martian rethinking his view on humanity, this book really does nothing.

Thank god for the second two issues written by John Ostrander because the first two were just some of the most boring and insignificant comic books I've ever read. The whole 52 weekly comic book idea was interesting in the beginning but it died quietly in the end and this WWIII thing just nailed its coffin shut. Ostrander pulled some good bits with Martian Manhunter although there wasn't a lot of space to manouver. Just goes to show who's actually a reliable and dependable writer amongst the lot...

World War III : Black Adam vs. everybody else! :DSorry, but I don't see why he gets to kill millions and millions of people before they are able to stop him, with having like a gazillion superheroes with their "amazing" powers... Since I was reading "52" I thought okay let's take a break just before the end and give this one a try... But I must say, this chapter was absoluty redundant.. It didn't add anything valuable to the story according to me.Of course, you're free to see for yourselves ;)

Spin-off della maxi-serie "52" della DC comics, senza infamia senza lode.E' incentrato su due figure: Black Adam da una parte, Martian Manhunter dall'altra, con un mucchio di eroi a fare da comparse. Qualche disquisizione filosofica interessante, sparsa qua e la tra le pagine.Disegnato in modo discreto, la trama non è nulla di eccezionale.

Wow a comic without Superman, Batman or Wonder Woman... This comic was awesome and very well written, the art was also awesome. Although I was a bit sad with some of the deaths but all in all a very good read :)

The World War III limited series (collected here) serves to elaborate on the events of 52, and in particularly week 50 (refer 52, Vol. 4). Now, if you’re going to read World War III I’m assuming that you’ve read 52, otherwise a lot of what’s going on here will be lost on you. Sure, you could read it for the action sequences, but you’ll come away from it somewhat baffled. The provocation and eventual unraveling of Adam is explained in some detail over the course of 52, which is what gives this co...

This wasn't necessary at all. World War III was an interesting wasted concept of DC, everyone at one point or another had asked ourselves what if...?, in this case: What if one of the most powerful characters in DC Universe go on a killing rampage? Well, this happened, and was a waste potential. In this comic are interesting moments before closing the 52 series, however the story could have been handled better and another reason as to why no one apreciates this event as to what it is, is because...

Simple review, this was fine but served no purpose. This takes place in issue #50 of the 52 series and nothing more was needed to tell that story, so DC decided a four issue limited series made the most sense. The art was very good though, especially some of the two pages spreads. Overall, not much happened here but it looked good.

Let me start by saying this is high 2 star review but I just couldn’t give it a 3. They story is rather pointless as I bought it in hopes of learning something new not found in the 52 series. However it was an obvious cash grab as it adds nothing to the overall story. It’s like buying a movie’s deleted scenes instead of the movie.

Well, this probably wasn't necessary. The World War III miniseries filled in some of the blanks on Black Adam's rampage across the world, which ended in the 50th issue of 52. This trade collects the four issue mini, plus that 50th issue. It's sadly dissappointing. It is kind of interesting to see what all Black Adam was up to, but it just wasn't needed, and it really doesn't add that much to the story.

Puntaje: 4.2Uno de mis arcos favoritos de 52 fue la Guerra Mundial III, este comic me gustó mucho, en especial porque Martian Manhunter nos da una visión más holística de todo lo que está sucediendo y la destrucción generada por Black Adam.Me impresionó la muerte de un personaje, tengo que averiguar si esta fue su muerte definitiva en esta continuidad.

Black Adam's rampage from 52, extracted and displayed in longer form, with the Martian Manhunter's touching narration.

In the 52 limited series that occurred between 2006 and 2007, Black Adam lost his closest members of the family when his brother-in-law Osiris and his wife Isis were killed. The tragedy was so devastating that Black Adam put the blame on everyone and began to kill the human race and fight against superheroes. To stop the madness, countless superheroes of JSA and JL along with Teen Titans, Doom Patrol assemble to take on Black Adam.World War III is a four-issue limited series that gives the reade...

World War III Review:World War III is a 52 event by Keith Champagne and it focuses on the DC superheroes trying to stop Black Adam's havoc throughout different cities after the death of the Black Adam family. Now I wasn't really familiar with this story nor ever read any of the 52 books. But I gave it a shot because of how intriguing the premise is.It ended up being a huge disappointment for me imo. While the art is really good and the comic is filled with action scenes that are really well done...
