Justice League of America #1 !!!
Justice
League of America #1 was simply a setup issue.
It was rather disappointing that the first collection of the JLA was
Amanda Waller and Colonel Trevor deciding who made a good team member or
not. There were a number of headshots
and assumption that the person picking up this comic had been reading all the
“new52” comics up to now and did not need to be brought up to speed on what was
going on in the DC Universe. I think
this was a mistake because I for one have no idea what has been happening with
the characters being brought into the JLA.
I do not read Green Arrow, Green Lantern, Vibe, Hawkman or
Catwoman. When I heard that the JLA was
getting a comic I kind of assumed that it would be another Superman, Batman,
Wonder Woman, Aquaman comic. I mean that
was the Justice League of America back in the day and that was the JLA in the
cartoons. If DC was hoping to bring in
new readers with a throwback to earlier comics giving the reader all these new
folks is just going to turn off those new readers. I did like how the Martian Manhunter showed
up but I was equally disappointed when we find out who the shadowy figure turned
out to be as he “died”. I also feel the
need to repeat that this whole talking episode was boring. There was no grand fight or surprise fight or
crisis brining the Heroes together. It
is just the government plotting against the Heroes
