Last issue: The League was down, save for the traitorous Martian Manhunter, as well as Batman, who’s discovered the Hyperclan are [gasp!] Martians! After taking out four superheroes, Protex seems to lose it and hits the doomsday button,…

Grant Morrison’s JLA (1997) #1: “Them!” (part 1 of 4)

“Comics sucked in the ‘90s!” has been thought by many to be “common knowledge”. And I get it, because I was caught saying the same thing a time or two when I looked back at some of the dreck I…

Avengers/JLA #4 of 4 “The Brave... and the Bold”

JLA/Avengers #3 of 4 “Strange Adventures”

It’s another amazing cover from George this time, with an honest attempt to get every single JLAer and Avenger on it. I mean, he has both Crimson Foxes on this thing! If he missed anybody, it must have been a…

Avengers/JLA #2 of 4 “A Contest of Champions”

So before we jump into the game, I just have to break down this cover. It’s a fantastic work, and it’s great to see the one, true Captain Marvel featured on the front. Although I do have an issue with…

Justice League of America #200 "A League Divided" (part 1 of 2)

Back in the early ’80s, my comic buying habits were a bit erratic. Other than X-Men, there weren’t a whole lot of titles I was steadfastly wedded to. However, I do remember really enjoying Justice League of America when…

DC Comics’ Legends #1

It was 1986, and DC Comics had delivered a game changer. Crisis on Infinite Earths had ushered in a new and exciting age, and as a comic book fan I honestly wasn’t sure what to expect. You had John Byrne…

Will Justice League be new and fun, or just Batman v. Superman 2?

Don’t get me wrong, I want to see Justice League. I absolutely won't miss it. But the truth is I'd see Bridget Jones 4 if Batman showed up in it.
