Effectively a very long (but nicely presented) secret origin of Stargirl.

I'm old enough to remember when these sort of things were done in a single page. Sigh.

Kind of a mess. Didn't expect the Stargirl and Martian Manhunter exclusive duo the whole time. Bet it was fun to draw with all the big players on splash pages.

I found this comic painfully boring to read. Expect for the very last story which was pretty good. The art was really good that was not the problem but the storyline was the terrible part.

Originally put together to take on the real Justice League, this second and last volume isn't really about a group of heroes doing anything, it's a couple here and there contributing to saving the world from the events of the "Forever Evil" event.

Martian Manhunter is a total badass in this and I was pretty impressed with Stargirl, who I assumed I would hate.

5.5/10
This volume mostly focuses on Martian Manhunter and Stargirl as a tie in to Forever Evil, but ultimately feels like a waste of time, as the majority of the story is fake. There is quality character exploration for stargirl and her relationship with being a hero and her relationship with Martian Manhunter, and eventually she fights through her doubts and saves the Justice League proper. A very cool moment, with Superman and the League answering to her, but is eventually revealed to be a figment of her imagination as she is trapped in the firestorm matrix with the other missing League members. When she is released, the JLA is disbanded and a basic followup on each character is shown. I see promise with the follow up, Justice League United, but am ultimately dissapointed with this volume

Okay, I don't get the hate. There's something charming about Stargirl, and her naivite and youthful hope being the thing that saves her wh n the big guys and down for the count.
She reminds me a little of Ms Marvel, the Kamala version. There's an aspect of both characters where their lack of cynicism, their excitement about everything,and youthful stubbornness and arrogance is the thing that lets them keep fighting.

Decidedly average. No great plot, and sub-par art.

Full review to follow.
