A review by midnighterbae
52, Vol. 1 by Geoff Johns

3.0

Lots of storylines and set up, but it's cool seeing "side characters" like Booster Gold, Renee Montoya, Black Adam, Question, Ralph Dibny, and Steel get their due. If the team of writers can resolve all the dangling plot threads, it could be a masterpiece. Even though some story beats like Starfire, Adam Strange, and Animal Man fall flat, there were great starts to character arcs, like Renee Montoya finding her role after her breakup and leaving the police and Booster Gold losing his fame and beginning his journey to become a "real" hero. Some times the book felt like a detective thriller with colorful costumes and cool powers...
