DOCTOR FATE-A QUESTION OF FATE

DR. FATE-A QUESTION OF FATE-Director Gary Lobstein is back with this sequel to his first Doctor Fate fan film, Dr.Fate & The Crawling Chaos. This time around it's up to The Question to save the day when Dr. Fate is declared missing after his encounter with the ancient evil forces set free from The Book Of Chaos. With help from a crazed college student, maddened by his encounter with The Book Of Chaos, and female student of the meta-physics, The Question sets out to find Fate and return the evil spirits back to their own dimension, but at what cost? This one features a nice cliffhanger ending, possibly opening the door to a third installment?? Well, I for one hope so, because I really enjoyed this second installment of Lobstein's Doctor Fate saga. Lobstein's choice of The Question as the films co-star is a logical one. after all, who better to find the good Doctor than a skilled Detective who's had his fair share of run-in's with evil of all shapes and sizes. The Question is decked out in his blue suit, and orange shirt in the film, and voiced by Lobstein himself. Lobstein's impersonation of The Question mirrors the voice work of Jeffrey Combs in The Justice League Unlimited series. Not a bad thing, since i think the JLU incarnation of Vic Sage was dead on. The short also marks the return of John Dedeke as Dr. Fate. The film itself has an overall dark feeling, with modest, yet effective special effects work, clever use of comic panel shots, and darkened rooms to set the mood. Although the film has an overall dark feeling, it moves along at a pace that's just right, bringing to mind the old movie serials of yesteryear, leaving you restless for the stories conclusion, and the fate of the hero. With this sequel, Mr. Lobstein proves once again, that characters as intimidating as Dr. Fate can star in their very own Fan Films, when placed in the right hands. Nice one Gary!
