Issue number 5 is a slight improvement over issue 4. Dan Mora turns in some really good artwork. There is more advancement to the plot concerning both the Gorillas and the Elders, and it is Mary Marvel who saves The Captain. There is a twist at the end where, now that Billy is aware the Elders are manipulating him (although we still don't know why the Elders are acting like bad guys), Billy threatens to give up his powers, only to have Freddy pop up saying he'll take the powers.
What I don't understand is how Mark Waid can be turning in such amazing scripts for Batman/Superman: World's Finest, and World's Finest: Teen Titans, but for this series, after an excellent first issue, the subsequent scripts are so weak. This issue earns a C.
