After some delays, and some shuffling of release order, we finally get the Justice League: Darkseid War special. As much as I want to be upset by the delays, I find myself incapable of getting too angry because each issue ends up being so damn satisfying. This issue, is no exception. Based on the cover…
Let’s be direct for a minute. If you’re reading this review, then you’re probably already reading Justice League at the moment… So I doubt you’re here to see if this issue is worth picking up, and you’re actually here to just discuss the issue… But IF you’re not reading Justice League at the moment… ……
Justice League #47 "Darkseid War Act III, Chapter 1: Gods of Justice” Written by Geoff Johns Art by Jason Fabok Colors by Brad Anderson After a slight delay in getting Justice League #46, we now have a quick turnaround for Justice League #47! The first thing I want to say is how amazing Fabok’s art…
Justice League #46 "Darkseid War: After Death” Written by Geoff Johns Art by Francis Manapul Colors by Francis Manapul After a month delay, we’re finally getting a new issue of Justice League. Thank God all of those one-shots fell in between issue 45 and 46, because I feel like I would have had a conniption…
Justice League: Darkseid War: Green Lantern #1 “Will You Be My God?” Script by Tom King Art by Doc Shaner Colors by Chris Sotomayor There's something to be said about humanity. The struggles we face. How we adapt and recover. The grand meaning or purpose that lies behind everything we do. We spend most of…
This issue serves as an epilogue to the Darkseid War, but oh man does it kick off an interesting set of events. I was genuinely curious as to what would happen and what Darkseid's death meant in the world. Turns out that this wasn't a simple winner/loser battle. There's been a major shift in the status…
Geoff Johns and Jason Fabok pull us back into their Multiverse spanning epic with Justice League #44. A battle of mammoth proportions wages between two of the most powerful entities in the universe with Earth serving as the battleground. Right smack in the middle of the two evil armies is none other than the Justice League,…
The Darkseid War continues as the Anti-Monitor and Darkseid finally come face to face in this PING-tastic issue of Justice League. Using Earth as the setting for their destructive battle, the League along with Mister Miracle must act quickly to save reality. But when the gods are at war, what side do you choose? Which…
The wait is finally over as Geoff Johns and artist Jason Fabok deliver the first installment of their new Justice League arc The Darkseid War! I've been anxiously waiting for this story to kick off. I've been play LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham just to fill the Justice League void in my life. Fortunately, I…
Justice League, Vol. 5: Forever Heroes? A more appropriate name would have been "Forever Evil: The Supplemental Material." Volume 5 doesn't really feature the Justice League at all. These chapters fall smack-dab in the middle of Forever Evil and that means that almost all of our heroes are being held captive somewhere and the evil-doers…
We've finally reached the conclusion of the Amazo Virus arc and let's just say that it was AMAZING! Honestly, I feel like I've offered a bit too much praise in some of these reviews, but I thoroughly enjoyed this story and this was a fitting end to this arc. Johns and Fabok really found their groove…
Chapter three: The Secret is January's issue of The Amazo Virus arc in the Justice League title. After a failed assassination attempt on Lex Luthor, an abandoned experiment of his has been released into the world. This issue starts off with a screen call from Colonel Trevor to the U.S. President explaining the dire situation…
If you bought the Jason Fabok cover (Jim Lee's is above), take a look at it. It's very misleading, however, it's creative in how it misconstrues the truth of what happens in this issue. I would liken it to a visual representation of how a rapper would use a turn of a phrase to speak…
I think the first thing I must say about this issue is the art. Jason Fabok's art is extraordinarily solid. The title page is nothing but a Metropolis street with crashed cars and $100 bills floating around... but it looks amazing. He has a knack for those stunning hero shots similar to Jim Lee with…
I tried explaining to my wife the ironic timing of The Amazo Virus arc that begins in this issue of Justice League with the current Ebola virus situation in the real world. She thought it was as strange as I did. I don't know if Geoff Johns had the Ebola virus in mind when the solicits for…
I'm glad Justice League is getting caught up from the delays. The cover by Jason Fabok looks great. Jessica Cruz's character has an interesting development. Unfortunately, these are the most positive things I can say about this issue. I did not find it worth $3.99 or perhaps $2.99. I must confess: I did just get finished reading Grayson #3…
We take a break from our delayed Justice League series to answer the call of Futures End month. Here, Jeff Lemire (co-writer of Futures End) takes us on a far-out and heady journey five years into the future. It is a big departure from the Justice League as we know it. Batman, Wonder Woman, and Superman are all absent. For you…
Justice League comes to us delayed for a couple issues, but it's nonetheless here. Do you remember what's going on with the new Power Ring? Jessica Cruz was chosen by Power Ring to be its next host. The Doom Patrol and the Justice League along with Lex Luthor all converge on Jessica Cruz's Power Ring breakdown.…
The solicitations lead you to believe, among other things, that more will happen between Bruce and Lex this issue. The great cover by Ivan Reis is terrific imagery for the Lex/Bruce situation as well. But if you come to Justice League #32 looking to further that particular story line, you may be disappointed. What we have here is…
I'm absolutely pumped about this issue. After having read Futures End #8 earlier today this comic is a welcomed breath of fresh air. There are multiple narratives in this installment and each one made a significant progression from the last issue. If you are a Batman fan (which surely you are, this is Batman-News after all) then…
