This is DC junk food. Fun with superheroes. But it’s actually quite good, if uneven.
First thing you’ll notice is that the art is so-so, especially in the first third of the book, then it improves and stays good.
As for the story, it starts very quickly and then slows down a bit to have some added complexity, which is welcome. But there is still at least one major fight per issue, it’s very action packed. It’s also very linear and easy to follow.
Not the best Justice League story, but it’s fun and is very easy reading. It does tackle some interesting questions on superheroes, especially Superman and Batman, but it’s much more entertaining than philosophical.
