'Justice League: 100 Greatest Moments' by Robert Greenberger is a pretty admirable attempt at the 100 greatest things that have happened to the Justice League.
The 100 items are broken up into 7 chapters starting with the membership of the Justice League. It's changed a lot over the years and yet some of the core members have remained. There is a chapter on headqyarters and we see how the team started on Earth, then moved to the Watchower in Space. From here we get in to the aliens they have encountered, the weird occult situations they've found themselves in, and allies and enemies made along the way. The last chapter deals with their greatest battles, and these range from Kingdom Come to the White Martians to Darkseid.
There are descriptions at the beginning of each chapter except the last. Each major battle gets a more in depth look. There are lots of pages from the comics and full credit is given for writer and artist. The appendix deals with team rosters.
I liked this as a good overview. I've followed the Justice League off and on, but I'm no hardcore fan. It was nice to have an introduction and overview to this superteam.
I received a review copy of this ebook from Quarto Publishing Group-Chartwell Books, and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.

I received a copy of The 100 Greatest Moments From the Justice League through NetGalley in exchange for a fair and honest review.
The 100 Greatest Moments from the Justice League is the perfect collection for a Justice League fan. It’s also perfect for those that haven’t read as much of the series as they’d like, and want a quick rundown of the best moments out there (that’s what I did).
Like any best of compilation, there is an expected level of subjectiveness to them. What you would pick for the best moments and what I would pick would likely be very different. Still, I always appreciate seeing what people find to be the most standout moments/series, and thus really enjoy these particular collections. This one is no exception.
This particular collection did their very best to have as full of an array as possible. They started pulling the greatest moments from the very first issue, back in the 1930s, and got all the way up to 2017 (because of publishing it isn’t surprising that nothing from 2018 was included). I had a lot of fun reading all the moments, seeing the styles and plots change as time moved forward.

A big anthology for the diehard fan of the Justice League. Information and tons of panels from those greatest moments. Those moments can be subjective and it may not be your top 100 but it will certainly bring back some good old memory.
