Justice League 1

Hal Jordan has got

Ehh I mean, this volume definitely had a ton of heavy lifting to do, in terms of rebooting the entire Justice League. It was fine, I guess? I'd be more interested to read volume 2, now that everything's been set up. But, uh, these days I'd be even more interested to read an Avengers book.

This was a very...curious story that hinges its sense of dread and drama on the reader knowing who Darkseid is and why he would pose a huge threat to Earth, but also assumes the reader is ignorant enough of the JL that they'd be happy with the first half of the book be nothing more than an introduction of the heroes, their powers, and relationships. Ultimately it didn't really do anything for me other than remind me of how awesome Rock of Ages was.

The later parts of the story were pretty good, but, boy, the New 52 versions of Hal, Bruce, Diana and Clark are absolute freaking dicks.
