Not memorable but okay. I generally do not read much about the Green Lanterns but I'm liking Jessica Cruz as a character.
It is a collection of some nice and decent Justice League stories, but there is really nothing epic or noteworthy here that we've come to expect from these books.
A series of smaller stories, where Flash is trapped in time travelling antics, some Jessica Cruz stuff that has been covered, we get an ok story about Mera and her badassery, and then we get big warnings about a multi universal threat... again.It seems that this volume is one of those volumes in between main stories, as it is kind of retreading on themes already addressed several times in other books or even this book itself. The Flash story is written by Hitch, and it is semi interesting, but i...
Justice League Vol. 4: Endless' from DC collects issues 20-25 of the series. Rather than a longer story arc, it's a bunch of shorter issues with different creative teams.The title story Endless is a sort of Groundhog's Day type story with the Flash reliving an incident over and over again, while trying to stop the death of a team member. It's the best story in the collection. In the second story, the Watchtower gets quarantined when Lois Lane and Jon come for a visit with Superman. The third sto...
Easily the best volume of Rebirth Justice League. Four different writers tell short stories here, with the majority of them focusing on Jessica Cruz and Simon Baz.
Probably my favorite of the JL Rebirth volumes so far. Shorter, punchy stories - Jessica Cruz, the endearing new Green Lantern takes a central role in 'A Thousand Little Things' (featuring a nice cameo by Lois Lane) and 'Fear Itself,' and receives some mentoring from Wonder Woman and Batman; Flash thinks he's trapped in his own deadly version of Groundhog Day in 'Endless;' Mera surfaces (pun intended) to cause trouble / give a cry for help in 'Fury' - comprise the majority of the book. Only the
The Rebirth Justice League series is a complete mess. This volume is the most jumbled one yet and is basically a collection of one-shots. Based on the nature of single stories, this volume may resonate with fans of the original Justice League TV show, though on a very low level as the writing is nowhere near that caliber. As usual, and as before with all volumes prior to this one, it ends with "something bigger is coming." This series is like an overlong ad to what I assume is building to whatev...
Somehow I've missed reading JL up to this point but it was easy for me to jump in as the characters have been in other titles I'm following (ie The Flash & Green Lanterns specifically tied to this volume). We have a set of three separate stories but the whole theme is that the League (and the planet) are to be DOOMED in the near future. First Flash has a groundhog day he keeps repeating where he's trying to save Jessica from being killed. Turns out not to be the coming Doom. Next, millions of bu...
This volume does little to advance any plot leading to the next volume, I missed nothing by skipping it, especially with it containing 4 one-shots and a 2-parter. Coming back to it there’s still some things to enjoy from it.Flash’s stuck in a time loop 2-parter, seemed to have a couple sci-fi tropes, but was surprisingly executed well. (Hitch writing and on art as well, to those who are fans)The saving grace on ‘a thousand little things’ the ‘infestation/quarantine’ issue was Shea Fontana writin...
The DC universe has been reborn and The Justice League is back in action. Justice League Vol. 4 (Rebirth) collects issues 20 through 25 of Justice League and is written by Bryan Hitch. There are a few different storylines in this book but the main one focuses on The Flash. With the Justice League dead and Manhattan destroyed the Flash finds himself in a time loop repeating the events that lead to the destruction that he believes he caused. Eventually he gets help from Batman and they are able to...
5 🌟The Flash is trapped in an endless cycle of Jessica getting murdered by a man who believes the Flash killed his family. The Flash and the Justice League figure out what caused the explosion that killed hundreds of people. The Green Lanterns bring an alien swarm onto the Watchtower after they clean space. The team also encounters Mera after Arthur is overthrown. The team plus Mera deal with Shirak.
some nice shorter stories also Jessica Cruz is fast becoming a favourite character
Not bad. A bit scattered.
The first two-part story was quite nice; the rest, boring as Hell. And now I wonder if Hell can be that boring. I mean, with all the torture and that...And you know, this book was so boring, I'm actually rambling in its review, so, bye.
A collection of one shots, all of which have individual problems. Aquaman is essentially absent, Batman given nothing to do, and Superman ignored; while the two worst Green Lanterns are featured issue after issue. Until the title goes back to group adventures rather than under-performing title promotion you might want to skip it.
A bunch of shorter stories, mostly with guest creative teams. Most of these stories are just boring. I didn't think it was possible to make the Justice League boring until now. Bryan Hitch's storytelling is terrible. In the Endless story, The Flash is travelling backwards in time but it's told in this obtuse way that is confusing. Hitch comes back and writes #25. The whole thing is just one large info dump. I literally nodded off and had to force myself to finish. The only story that stood out w...
Some interesting material here. Hitch is still setting up for the big bad that's coming. There are also some shorter one shot stories that add some character development to the two Green Lanterns, as well as bringing Mera onto the team while Aquaman is occupied in his own comic. Although not strong, these one-shots are a nice break from the multi-issues stories we've seen recently.
This was my least favorite issue so far
2.5 starsEndlessly dull. The first bit revolves around Jessica (once again) trying to overcome fear and/or feelings of inadequacy.Shutthefuckupwiththatshitalready. I simply could not care less about these Green Lanterns and yet here they are again. But if you like these guys (and they do have a lot of fans!) then this might be a bigger winner overall for you.The stuff with Mera was better, but it wasn't enough to salvage the entire volume, in my opinion. I am happy to see her take a spot on the
Basic Plot: Something is coming to threaten Earth, and we don't know what it is yet.This was largely a collection of shorter stories. We got to know some characters better, especially Jessica Cruz. We got to see the addition of Mera to the team, definitely a new choice. There is definitely a sense of impending doom that pervades the whole volume, making the reader wonder what the newest big bad is going to be..Everything felt a bit disjointed and rushed, of course a bunch of different artists an...
