Tom versus the JLA annual number three or the holidays just got real awkward around Red Tornado's house.

Welcome back for JLA annual annual entitled The Force of Nature, written by Dan Mishkin, penciled by Rick Hoberg, inked by Michael Gustavik, colored by Gene DeAngelo, lettered by John Costanza, edited by

Alan Gold with cover art by Paris Cullins and Mike Macklin.

This is a crisis on infinite Earth's crossover issue.

There's red skies everywhere and lots of foreboding.

We opened this issue with red tornadoornado on board the satellite.

Now this is going to cause some continuity problems.

Crisis of an Uninfinite Earths at one point, red tornado gets blown up.

He's made to go crazy and start causing problems everywhere.

I don't know where this quite fits into that, honestly. I'd have to

reread the main series to see exactly where in the story this goes. I know in the main series,

he does freak out at some point, but it also seems like it would have happened somewhere in here

and it doesn't quite work. This also doesn't tie in completely neatly to what's been going on the JLA story

since they seem to be so wrapped up in the battle with Infinity Inc.

And then they move in on the next thing.

This kind of fits somewhere in there.

But like in any big crossover, it's not horrible.

Nothing doesn't make, nothing is completely nonsensical. I mean, it's just, it's

sort of a little odd if you're obsessive, compulsive about it like me. And I should really let go of that.

As should you. So Red Tornado is on board the satellite, doing some sort of experiments on

himself. The anti-manitor had informed him that he was, quote, unquote, more than machine, more than man,

which got him curious. Red tornado, of course, obsessed with his perceived lack of humanity
