A Great Question Story with an Unquestionably Embarrassing Amount of Mistakes
By SillyMoose
Helltown is a book all fans of The Question have been in a panic for, thinking we'd die before we'd see it. But here it finally is, and it's Denny O'Neil's way of rendering in prose form what he created in comic form with lots of interesting updates thrown in (he borrows largely from issues 1-4 and 14 of the 1986 series but updates the plot and main characters involved). First I'll talk about what I think is great about this book, and then, because I feel morally compelled to, I'll talk about the mistakes, problems, and huge gaffs in the book. That being said, even with its frankly embarrassing amount of mistakes, I'll take this novel any day against some others. WARNING: SPOILERS HEREAFTER. The novel centers around Charles Victor Szasz's / Vic Sage's return to Hub City after a ten year self-exile and his desire to find out who his parents are. He runs afoul of Mayor Fermin (an alcoholic puppet political figurehead who beats women because he's so easily controlled by his addiction and anyone with an IQ of a four-year-old or so), Reverend Hatch (a paranoiac and demented preacher who wants to bring Christ to Earth by beginning Armageddon himself), and former USM Colonel Thaddeus McFeeley, aka Crate (a vicious, capable warrior who wants to bring back his family's prestige by raking in millions of dollars worth of profit by outfitted folks for the end times). The allies pitted against the evil axis are Lady Shiva (who nearly kills Sage but comes to revere him), Aristotle Rodor (former prodigy, now adult genius who's been shafted in business but creates his own venerable, peaceful life in spite of it all), Richard Dragon (martial arts master extraordinaire), Myra Connelly (a martyr for her child and love interest of Sage), and Batman and Alfred (enough said). Without completely ruining the plot, this story involves threats on the lives of children, high tech weaponry, religious zealots, and the entire misuse of the best qualities of humanity. What I especially appreciated about this story is the addition of The Dream (I'll say no more so that you can experience it completely new, too) to The Question's origin. The story itself is intriguing, thoughtful , well-paced, action-packed, essentially the quintessential Question story. Awesome stuff. Now the problems. O'Neil wants to update the story, but after referencing Kris Kristofferson, Deanna Durbin, and Bob Dylan, he creates anachronisms by using words like "prolly," references Jackie Chan and Jessica Alba, has his characters use GPU (GPS?) technology; this creates a nearness of the 70s past but confuses us in a light speed jump to 2000 and beyond. Weird. Then there are the typos ("he turned onto a barren street without knowing way" p. 28; "Vic hiked up and path until he stood . . ." p. 46; the word "collegues" p. 50; "Vic throught he heard someone" p. 75; I could go on and on, but we'll leave it there). But the biggest mistake is, within a paragraph (p. 242) Jackie Connelly, Myra's daughter, is alternately called "Jackie" and "Ashely"! There are lots of problems with characterization. Batman gives The Question a serious warning about maiming and killing, and that if he does, Batman tells him he'll hunt him down and bring him to harsh justice; but somehow Batman works side by side with Lady Shiva who kills for fun? There are several more, but this review is getting long. Anyway, if you can enjoy the story in spite of its gaffs, this is a great one. And it stands on its own without needing to necessarily read and/or know what happens in the comics. It's ironic that O'Neil lauds Chris Cerasi as a great editor. I'm not trying to be mean, but he did a horrible job. Even so, O'Neil's and The Question's story stands out as one not to be missed.
