"Day of Vengeance" sounded like a great idea going in. Willingham is one of the underrated creators in comics, and throw in a legend like Walt Simonson as cover artist, and there's enough to interest any longtime comics fan. Unfortunately, the execution fell short of what it could have been. The story read like a "house without a foundation". Certain scenes and characters were well handled (this story breathed new life into Detective Chimp for the first time since he guested in Flash/GL in the mid-nineties). However, the overall story lacked direction. It all just seemed disjointed. One big part of the problem was that "Day of Vengeance" was not a stand-alone story. It's part of the larger "Infinite Crisis". Unfortunately, there is every expectation of an actual resolution. After all, any story collected a TPB deserves at least some kind of independent conclusion, even if it is part of a larger whole. Don't you think? Grade: Incomplete, because this is unfortunately not a whole story. Recommendation: Get it if you are an Infinite Crisis completist. If you are a casual Infinite Crisis reader, you can probably pass if you want to save money. If you have no idea what Infinite Crisis is, then don't even bother.
