JLA Fantastic issue. I know there’s a lot left to go, but hot damn the finale for this run so far has just been so so well-paced. It’s also just loaded with giant visual superhero moments (punches!). Really enjoying this ending.

JLA As you can see from the art here, this is a real rumble of an issue, with everyone basically both taking and giving punches. There is a reveal of Mageddon here before we close on Batman prepping to fight Prometheus.

JLA I did not read this issue in the original run for whatever reason, but if I had, I think I would have REALLY liked it when I was 15 or 16. It uses superheroes and philosophy in a way that feels perfect for that age’s thinking. Today? Not as provocative.

JLA This felt a little more disjointed than most issues in this run, coming in between guest writer one-offs. The crux is a prison break story, but in a larger sense it seems to be setting up plot to be paid off in the near future in about three different layers.

JLA Another one-off (sort of) that ties into the concurrently unfolding No Man’s Land story arc. I think it’s a credit to this run that even these event tie-ins largely feel additive to the over-arching story, nice bit of planning and forethought at work there.

JLA In which Triumph has just about the worst day any foe of the team has had in this run yet. Trying to destroy existence is one thing, but if you let minor grievances spin into an evil revenge plot? Hoo boy, watch out. Lex Luther got kid gloves compared to this.

JLA It’s fun the way these comics draw from the past of all the cast members. This issue is a great example of it, in that the villain is revealed to be a foe of Aquaman’s, of all characters. Nice little twist that makes the cast and shared world feel more robust.

JLA Great rising action. Also, this issue features Captain Marvel punching Superman, and when you have these two characters in one book, you should always contrive a way for Captain Marvel to punch Superman, or vice versa.

Petition to add Plastic Man to all major incarnations of the JLA in perpetuity.

JLA Kind of a loose one-off story, based on a philosophical debate over whether a bigger league is better...this story doesn’t quite answer that question, but The Atom gets to feel like a super smart guy who is needed...so good for him? Idk

JLA This run has a steady ebb and flow of the team getting totally dismantled by some enemy...before then regrouping, figuring something out, and saving the day. And yet. It’s still a fun ride to get there, which is a credit to the creators.

In JLA/Avengers, Wally got sent to Earth 616 where he lots his powers and got to see how they treated mutants, he was not there for the bigotry lmao

Been a while since I posted to this.

Commissioned this from the lovely artist known as Candra via patreon back in 2017 and it's easily one of my coolest Tomorrow Woman pieces. A pretty perfect take on her JLA#5 appearance.
