Justice Society of America #11 Review

JUSTICE SOCIETY OF AMERICA #11

This Thy Kingdom Come arc is moving at a snail's pace. I like it and all that, but every issue, outside of the "OMG it's KC Superman!", feels like fluff and filler.

As of this issue, KC Superman has arrived on our Earth. He's had tea and a chat with the JSA before saving a girl from jumping off a roof. This issue saw him chat with the JLA, confirm his identity through DNA, Wonder Woman's lasso and other various means. After that, there's a brief fight between some random heroes and villains and the issue ends. I don't mind decompressed story telling, but after three issues, I'd like something, anything even, to happen.

The only other thing of note from this issue is the God-complex killer. He's in the sewers near the body he of the guy he killed last issue with the cops surveying the scene and claiming to be Mr America. I'm no major DC buff, but I take it this guy is new? Because I, honestly, have no clue who he is or if the character should be significant. And is he invisible? The cops don't seem to care he's standing over the dead body in the middle of the sewers.

Verdict - Check It. It's still JSA and the issue is fairly good, but if you are only interested in the KC Superman stuff, there's not much to see here and very little of note actually happens. JSA fans will love it, but for everyone else, I'd almost recommend avoiding it.
