Comic review: Sinestro #10- All Dominators Must Die

Writer: Cullen Bunn
Artist: Brad Walker
Publisher: DC Comics
Released: 25th February 2015


This book doesn’t deserve a full and detailed review.

The narrative is centred on two individuals, but in terms of mindset they are the same person, a dominator, the kind of person who has made, and continues to make the world what it is today.

Hitler, Stalin, Bush, Blair, Clinton, Obama, Putin, Cameron.

Different personalities, but exactly the same poisonous mindset. It’s the mindset of the dominator, the man/woman who needs to be obeyed, an insane individual who is so deluded, so arrogant, and so detached from moral truth and spiritual reality that he has somehow convinced himself that he alone knows what is best for everybody else.

Nice smirk from Dominator #2

Little Hitler’s everywhere. In shops, schools, offices, politics, families, and we still continue to let them get away with their world burning insane arrogance. Wives, children, families support them, their work colleagues support them, their communities support them, their countries support them, and thus, we get the Hell that is planet Earth in 2015.

Sinestro #10 is about two dominators fighting each other for control. Is one a good guy, the other a villain? No, they are both villains, as they are both dominators, and their only goal is domination over others, to sit on a throne and give orders. Who wins and who loses is not important. It’s like voting between red and blue. The only loser is YOU.

That’s all you get in this book, and that’s why it’s not worth my time, or yours.

If you want to read about fictional dominators then buy the book. If you want a window into the kind of mindset that is shared by humanities ‘leaders’ in 2015 then buy the book.

Personally speaking, I’ve had my fill of dominators, and every time I see a new one, in real life or on the lying box, or in a comic, they just make me want to puke my guts out in violent rage.

I picked up this comic book because I wanted to give it one final chance before I stopped reading it forever. That chance has now come and gone. I didn’t hate it. It gave me a chance to talk about real world dominators and how they destroy the world in order to satisfy their psychopathic need for domination, for control, for order. That mindset needs to be chucked into the dustbin of human history alongside capitalism and statism, but that’s the challenge of our age. Recognise the poison. Stop ingesting it.

Rating: 3/10 (For the artwork. I enjoyed the smirk on Dominator #2’s face)
