What sets you apart from the other superhero universes is a unique way to get closer to the superhero ratios. The fallout from the big alien/multiple war is explored in sparkling black. Inferno Girl Red is learning the protagonist who learns to use his beliefs as a literal superpower. Here, the unjust aspect of the sun, passed from generation to generation, means that each sun has their own ideas about how to fight evil, but Rogue Sun #28 takes it to a completely different level.
First of all, there is the backstory of the current villain. Ryan Parrott and Nick Cotton jig at places people might expect them to have a zag, giving him some real weight to his actions, and some shades of grey and Ollie’s quest to stop him. I hope that the big obvious was having problems sooner (I had to give up the story momentum due to the sparkling black/illegal sun crossover, but it still hits quite hard – like a big twist on the last page that is pretty close to rival Radiant Black #34.
The artwork of Abel and Bruna Frenda continues to highlight the supernatural elements within the injustice sun. There’s no one there, so the image is unstable, but the harm is writhing in pain. Other scenes like Dylan have a hard time lifting the elevator, swimming through vast scenes, and thanking Nasalia Marquez for her work in colour. The golden orange of the illicit sun flame, bright green smoke with harmful green smoke exploiting, and the bluish black of the night sky. It all comes together in a great palette.
The true standout of Rogue Sun #28 is in the scene where former Rogue Suns Marcus and Caleb fight in the spiritual realm of Sun Stone. I have seen this realm in the previous arc with all its sun bleached glory. However, with Marcus and Caleb exposed across the sky, the page is packed with plenty of action. The art team can’t hold back anything. Because there is a huge explosion of fire in the sky, one or both combatants are sent flying through rocky formations. Also Abel and Frenda have given both the Rogue Sons their own personal visual talent. While Marcus is pure black, reflecting his desire to save a child (if not necessarily a moral character), he wears a suit of pure white armor, reflecting that his own desires reflect the way his own desires distorted his sense of judgment.
Rogue Sun #28 has some surprising twists as the current story is coming to an end, including the conflict between two different generations of Rogue Suns. The way this series plays at superhero conventions is one of the reasons why I’m drawn to it and hope it doesn’t change.
