One actual good thing, IMO was the cliff-hanger in the end. I won't say what it was so as not to spoil it for others.Well balanced adventure This first part of the trilogy has a good balance of story, characters and cameos. Yes, it is a story involving time travel and thus all the classic time travel elements are in the story. Some might see it as cliched - but I see it as consistent. The pairings of the heroes as well as the characters they encounter in the various time periods are well done.
One of the better novels involving super-heroes that I have read.
