James Robinson's Earth 2 is a series that takes place on another Earth (duh!)different from Earth 1, with some changes here and there to various characters, especially golden age characters like Jay Garrick Alan Scott for examples . For the most part, I liked the changes to this series that were made from Earth 2 Vol. 1: The Gathering (The New 52) into a world building and character building series that isn't riffled with continuity (not just yet). So I decided to give volume 2 a try, as well as the re-introduction of one of my favorite DC characters, Doctor Fate. How does E2 book still hold up? Still the same solid book with the same problems.
EARTH 2 VOL.2: THE TOWER OF FATE collects issues #7-12, #0, and a Mister Terrific story from DC UNIVERSE PRESENTS #0 (Amazon has the description wrong.). After the battle with Grundy, the Earth and its world government, the World Army, are in question of the events and the return of super powered beings known as "wonders", that beings include the Flash, Green Lantern, The Atom, and Hawkgirl. The World Army is putting into place its counter-defenses and Steppenwolf, the general who lead the attack on Earth 2 five years ago, is stranded on earth and looking to rebuild an army. Flash, Green Lantern, and Hawkgirl are dealing with their new powers and paths as wonders, to which Hawkgirl thinks the best option is to unify as a team and protect the planet, and in doing so, needs Doctor Fate to hopefully join this new union.
