![]() ![]() Even though I don’t know what happened before his first issue, it is very clear that this is a new group, forming out of the ashes of whatever happened to the previous one and even if you don’t know what their motivation is, you care enough to stick with this and find out. This serves to set up Morrison’s take on Doom Patrol. ![]() I cared about every character in this story and I really hope that maintains as I get deeper into this series. Morrison does a fine job of throwing characters at you and finding something within them that allows him to connect with the audience. I can’t quite say that this is a legendary comic book run, as I need to read Morrison’s entire Doom Patrol catalog but this is certainly off to a very solid start. I’m trying to rectify that now, as I want to better understand these characters with the Doom Patrol television show starting in a few weeks on DC Universe. Over time, I collected a few issues of Morrison’s run but I never completed it and never actually read a full story arc. ![]() It’s something that the older, cooler kids talked about but I was more into Batman and Spider-Man at the time, as comic books were still kind of new to me and I hadn’t yet expanded too much beyond that. I knew all about Doom Patrol back when Grant Morrison was writing it in the very late ’80s and into the ’90s. ![]()
