I Love the JLofA, and So Does Brad Meltzer
Let's just get this straight: I love the Justice League of America. I always have, and I always will. I loved the Detroit stories, I loved the "Bwah-ha-ha" era, I loved when Jurgens tried to get it more serious, and I loved it when Nuklon and Obsidian joined the team. When Morrison came along, I thought the comic book gods had smiled upon us, and when Waid took over from Morrison, I thought all was still right in the world. When Joe Kelly came along I was thoroughly impressed, and then, after he left, well, things got a little rough for a while. However, who comes in to save the day but the otherworldly Geoff Johns. And then, well, it got rough again. However, when I heard Brad Meltzer had been tapped to reboot the title, I was more than ecstatic. Meltzer earned my undying loyalty with Green Arrow: The Archer's Quest, and Identity Crisis was very strong as well. I realized from those two works that Meltzer's strengths are definitely characterization and the...
Amazing Story...Great Starting Point.
First let me say I used to collect comics like a junkie back in the day. Every week I was at my local comic shops to see if they had anything new to get my Batman, Superman, Spider-man, and others fix. As I got older and grew up I moved away from these gems that I used to love so much. It's nice to see that the books grew up as well as I did. I got to say even after all these years away Brad Meltzer grabs the reader and within the first few pages and brings you back with all your old friends like you never missed a day. This story (and no I won't give spoilers...I think a review can be just that without ruining it for a future reader) will grab you by the collar and drag you to the last page. I found myself unable to put it down. I have always thought the Red Tornado was cool...hell I was one of the geeks that had his mini-series DC comics put out in the early 80's. The character of Red Tornado in the comics of old was always trying more and more to be human, but...
Slow Burning Relaunch by Novelist Meltzer
For those comic book fans expecting another , this collection is bound to disappoint. The latest JLA series isn't a complete bust, however. The first issue is slow-moving as the lineup is revealed, and the suspense about who is on the new Justice League team doesn't hold up when all of the characters are on the cover! Like some other reviewers have pointed out, the story arc was too slowly paced to work as a monthly comic but holds up better as a collection. The focus on the Red Tornado brings some humanity back to the character...is he an android? An elemental? Or...something else? When the villains are revealed, things get a little complicated and can be confusing if you're not too familiar with all of the characters. This collection is also "missing" issue #0, an oversight that I would...

Two stars for the story; One star for DC's poor production quality
Justice League of America: Dark Things collects Justice League of America #44-48 and Justice Society of America #41-42, all originally published in 2010. Like most of DC's recently published graphic novels, Dark Things is cheaply produced--almost unforgivably so, in this reviewer's opinion. The boards, though featuring silver foil-stamps, are unfinished. And the binding is so tight that the interior sides of pages cannot be seen clearly. The graphic novel's editorial treatment is similarly bad: all the original editorial copy (individual issue titles, creator credits, annotations, etc.) has been removed. Even nuttier, the actual covers have been relegated to an appendix; as a result, it is impossible to tell where issues break and which specific issue you are reading at any given time. To say that this negatively affects the rhythm of the story is an understatement.As for the story itself, in which a newly resurrected Jade must save her father from an inexplicably sentient...
The JLA (Roster still askew...)! The JSA! JADE!!! Green Lantern, Supergirl, Power Girl, Oh my!!! A worthy effort.
Okay, so I'm irritated by the low marks this book has gotten thus far. Don't get me wrong, I'm one of the people who was TICKED when the JLA Roster went through a HUGE shake up from the events of Cry For Justice. But come on, there's a GREAT reason for the shake up folks. Plus, Batman died! And was replaced by Dick Grayson! Bottom line, our B+ (albeit upgraded from my initial marks of a C+ league when I first heard about Cry For Justice) Justice League is woven together with a GREAT story, which is fairly well written. Plus it had Jade, and the JLA/JSA teamup, and my favorite Green Lantern, Kyle Rayner. (Don't get me wrong folks, I love Hal Jordan, but I grew up with Kyle and didn't know much about Jordan then.) The low stars seem to come from people getting an admittedly (by myself as...
"Eww, this is getting too Luke and Leia!"
So I've pretty much lost track of what's been going down with the JLA, just plain lost interest. I only picked up this trade because it marks yet another annual get-together with the Justice Society, one of my favorite teams. But, oh my giddy aunt, the changes in the JLA! Eying this roster, I'm not sure it deserves its street cred as the world's preeminent superhero crew, not when it's got obscure folks like Congo Bill and Mikaal Tomas drawing a paycheck (do JLAers draw paychecks?). We open with a scene in the JLA Watchtower, as the new Justice League undergoes a sort of getting-to-know-you training session in a holographic room Batman calls "the Kitchen" (cough*DangerRoomRipoff*cough). The team building experience is abruptly cut short when a green meteor hurtles thru the satellite, and only Starman's newfound ability to fly thru space saves Donna Troy, who had been jettisoned into space. The JLA tracks the meteor to Earth and, cracking it open (the meteor... not the...

Do Your Homework, It's Worth It
This is Volume 6 of the post-Infinite Crisis Justice League of America series, preceded by: ...
Worst Collection of the Series
OK, perhaps I'm at a disadvantage. I've never heard of the "Milestone" characters before and I'm don't really care for them. They're hardly given an introduction, just plopped down into the book like we're supposed to know and care about them. I didn't. I'd suggest skipping this story collection, and reading the others in this series.

A mediocre League
Justice League of America has proven to be a very, very mixed bag. Brad Meltzer started off the series with a very slow, heartfelt story...that didn't really feel like the Justice League at all. Enter Dwayne McDuffie. Veteran comic fan, TV series writer, everyone thought he would know just what the JLA needed, and would knock it out of the park. Has it? Not really. Each issue of JLA isn't bad. They all feature good characterization, pacing, and art. But as you look at the collection of all the issues, you begin to realize just how much JLA lacks a sense of purpose and centralized storyline. Nothing seems to be holding this book together. While they try to build subplots with some of the lesser known characters - Red Arrow, Red Tornado, Hawkgirl - none of these, in my estimation at least, have panned out. And certainly none of these - started back in issue #1 - have reached anywhere close to a culmination. The main storylines have proven to be...
The League confronts new foes amidst a gathering storm
This is a mixed bag. The League is faced with supervillains asking for sanctuary in the Hall of Justice, since they fear the government's program of sending supervillains to a prison planet. Meanwhile, Vixen's losing her powers and can't figure out why. Wonder Woman and Flash team up in a nice standalone where they face Zazzala, who's stolen a matter transporter, and a new villain called Libra joins the roster of villains after incapacitating Hawkgirl and Red Arrow. The backstories are nice, but for some reason, I can't get into McDuffie's work here. And I love the Justice League and Justice League Unlimited series.

(Titan)

The Green Lantern might not seem the most likely candidate for a big-budget blockbuster . He’s certainly not your typical superhero, being based more in the world of retro sci-fi, his powers derived from a ‘power ring’ bestowed by the Guardians of the Universe that creates solid constructs founded on the wearer’s imagination. It may be a touch hokey but he’s been a key player in the DC Universe and Justice League of America since the 1940s.

But such is the studio hunger for superhero projects, the movie is indeed on its way with Ryan Reynolds in the title role. He also provides the new foreword in this repackaged, film-friendly reissue of Geoff Johns’ retelling of the character’s origin story, wherein test pilot Hal Jordon is bequeathed the power of the Green Lantern by alien Abin Sur.
