Looked real good. The story conceptually was good, but the writing let me down. Didn't buy much of anything that was presented.

Right away, I'd like to say that the art is absolutely stunning. Beautiful.

Prometheus, the main villain, is a badass. I love it when they make C- or D-list villains suddenly badass. It worked for Dr. Light in Identity Crisis, and it worked for Prometheus here.

I did feel like some characters were portrayed incorrectly, though, namely Hal and Ray. But I did like that Hal's taking action, because he IS the law in this sector.

A lot of people were upset about what happened to Roy, but I'm indifferent. Call me heartless.

And Mikaal and Bill make a really cool team.

This was interesting. I like the struggle the heroes go through to define what justice means to each of them.

Eh. This was weird and dark and not particularly good. I liked that it highlighted some atypical JLAers like Green Arrow, Supergirl and the new Shazam. I wasn't interested at all in the Starman/Congorilla stuff. Overall this was moody and just okay. I loved the art though.

Own as individual issues

Enjoyable but dark Justice League miniseries. Liked that there were many underused heroes and villains in play here including Animal Man and Congorilla and Starman.

The ending left little room for joy but that's often the way of the hero.
Great artwork helped to make this a good read.

I atcually liked this. A much darker version of the JLA than I had been reading. A team that questions exactly what is Justice.
