Summary: Graphic SF Reader
Comment: I had a look at this because Warren Ellis was writing it. It is not bad, and not good, either. It is basically an average Justice League of America story, with a little bit of a JLA twist. Ellis only fans probably won't be too interested, but JLA fans won't mind it too much at all, it is just another of things.
Customer Rating:
Summary: New Maps of nonsense more like it.
Comment: Ellis should be ashamed that he wrote this.
There is no motivation for any of the characters to act they way they do.
And why is Green Lantern all of a sudden being drawn in a costume that was never seen before.
Truly, a missed opportunity.

Summary: What I expected, nothing more.
Comment: I've disowned the JLA ever since The Tenth Circle came out, but I picked this up because I desperately missed the company of my old DC friends. The art work was definently some of the better stuff I've seen, but the writing was not what I wanted to see. I got an overall sense of a blase attitude from the JLAers in that "Sure, this guy is a little tough, but we've seen worse, we'll beat him eventually." There was very little doubt in both my mind, and I think the characters' minds that they would overcome the threat by the end of the book. And that's what I hated the most.

Summary: Alright for the JLA, Bad for Ellis
Comment: I'm a pretty big fan of Warren Ellis' other stuff and Guice's art looks very nice (he draws a great Oracle!!!) but this story, at best, is mediocre JLA stuff. You know, the type of JLA story where they go fight something powerful, lose in the fight for a bit, but eventually beat it. While that may be considered good for other writers, I was really hoping Ellis would have it be better than that. Unforunately, that's not the case.
