Justice Society of America #10 Review

JUSTICE SOCIETY OF AMERICA #10
Written by Geoff Johns & Alex Ross

I can't see what the delay was for this issue. It reads ridiculously fast. Couple minutes flat and very little happens. The art is fairly average and pretty much in line with every other issue, as well. Not sure if it was held back by DC for marketing reasons or what. And while some might appreciate the painted Kingdom Come splash pages, they didn't really bring anything to the actual plot.

I was looking forward to the Power Girl interaction, but she was kept off panel the entire issue. Only really decent part of the issue was the interaction with Starman, which was hilarious, and the rest of the JSA in the opening 3 or 4 pages. Rest of the book felt like filler.

Also, was there a reason for the generic super hero fight as KC Superman went to save the suicidal girl? Could he not just say there's someone about to die and he has to go? Why did he bust out through the door into all the heroes when he could have just went out the side of the building, avoiding all the JSA? Resorting to cliched 'misunderstanding fights'? Johns is better than this.

Verdict - Avoid It
