A nice summation and epilogue to your recent Crisis. Nice development of personalities on the whole, and the final scenes were done nicely. A good effort, and a worthy parting. Good luck on your next project(s)!
Take care
Don

Great issue, Brian! Loved the character interactions, particularly between Barry and Hal; the strife between Superman and Batman was a hard to read--- or maybe I'm just not a fan of that approach to their relationship! All the cameos were pretty fun--- I was glad to see my favorite Golden Agers represented, and Power Girl! I am very excited about how the League is filling out; there are some great new additions in this issue. I am especially looking forward to seeing Elongated Man and Hawkgirl on this team. I am sorry to see certain characters go: J'onn and Superman will be missed, but I'm sure they aren't gone for good, either. The reserves list reads like an all-star team itself! Hmmm...   But where's the cover? |

Nice stuff. It wraps up the Starro-line (Starro storyline) well and sets up for a new League. But what about the future?
Will Hal Jordan be a good father to his love child? Is Aquaman's hand truly evil? Will Ollie make it home in one piece? Tune in next month. Same Justice time, same Justice channel.
I'm having an off day, in case you can't tell.

cover?
I liked the issue as an epilogue it worked well...as an issue however I cant say Im too pleased about the new line up. For me all my favourite Leaguers went and some guys Im not a huge fan of turned up. Good writing and Ill probably still read the title I just felt more disappointed than I exited.

The Supes/Bats stuff has already noted. The fanboy in me wants to side with Batman, but my brain says Superman is right. Batman is being a powermongering ****.
Not as much as Luthor, though. In his way, DC2 Luthor is as insane as Joker is. He's not that chaotic, but he is that far gone. Anyone who could talk about protecting humanity from the metahu mans like that after threatening to sell Earth to the Starro entity just to be able to counter Batman, (especially when talking to Poison Ivy who could give a toss for 99% of the human race), must be totally loony tunes. He's got his delusional/paranoid fantasy world structure wrapped around his brain, and he's sticking to it.
Oh, poor Zatana. What have you become?
I like Hawkgirl. A little too much, maybe.
Wonder Woman is the voice of reason in all this....good luck to her.
Brilliant as always, Brian.

Good luck on your next project(s)! Take care Don Thank you sir, and as this is my last issue I have to say that this has been both a fun book and probably the most difficult book for me to write. I've enjoyed every bit of it though and I have a feeling that all of you are in for some great stories as Don takes over the writing chores. I know I'm going to be here every month! |

Great issue, Brian! Loved the character interactions, particularly between Barry and Hal Thanks, Barry and Hal are actually very fun to write as a duo. Of course I took a lot of their friendship from Mark Waid's Brave and Bold. |

Is Aquaman's hand truly evil? Will Ollie make it home in one piece? Tune in next month. Same Justice time, same Justice channel. Good question with Hal and we'll just have to see what happens in his own book. Speaking of own books... tune in this next week to see issue #0 of Green Arrow! If your a GA fan, you might just enjoy it! I thought it was pretty funny. Thanks for sticking with the book! |

don't know.  Glad you are going to stick with it. I think Don does some great work and I'm personally excited to see what he's going to do with this line up. And thanks for reading, and responding. |

The Supes/Bats stuff has already noted. The fanboy in me wants to side with Batman, but my brain says Superman is right. Batman is being a powermongering ****. Well, I responded to the Supes/Bat stuff as well and I have to agree with you on both sides. That's what I like about their friendship so much, when they don't get along, you can see both sides and understand both sides. I'm glad that's coming across, Jay, because keep an eye on Action Comics. She's become the focus of her own miniseries. ;D Well... *uncomfortable silence*... I suppose that's okay. I loved Wonder Woman in this series. She is the voice of reason, and I enjoyed that. Thanks for hanging out and responding, my friend! |

Still waiting for that cover...  This story was a nice way to sort of "fall back and regroup" after the last Crisis. Good characterization all around, although the Supes/Bats bickering did get old fast. Glad to see a lovely comprimise on the new headquarters as well...how long until some writer blows up the Earthbound HQ just so they can use the satellite? ;D |

With me writing, you're MUCH more likely to get the reverse. I hate the satellite, to be perfectly honest. LOL
Take care
Don

Just got around to reading this issue and I love the interACTION between the characters and the setups for things that are going to be coming out in other ACTION packed titles. What has poor Z done? And how will it now affect Arthur since now he owes her? Hmmmm Hmmmm
I like the Batman/Superman relationship. I think they're friends, the kind that can speak what's on their mind to each other and yet remain friends. Sometimes one has to take ACTION. And I loved the Luthor/Elvis moment.
Thanks, Brian for the entertainment!

Thanks Susan and Roy for commenting and glad you liked it. As I have said, I enjoyed my short run on Justice League and will miss these folks, but they are in great, great hands! Roy... subtle dude... very subtle... ;D |

So many fun things going on this issue: The opening scene with the big three rocked. Not because of the obvious reasons but because Wonder Woman put an end to it so...regally. The scene between Hal and Barry was utterly priceless! No one can do these scenes better then you! The scene with Aquaman and Zatanna was...unexpected. What the heck happened there? Lex is a little pissy huh? Loved it. I wonder what Plasticman is going to do or where he is going to go? And the satellite headquarters huh? Again Wonder Woman steps in here. Another Batman scene as the paranoid jerk. Not my favorite portrayal of him but it does work to balance the 'light' of the rest of the League. On that same note I am of the belief that Batman and Superman would never be friends if we were to see a realistic portrayal of both characters. Good example here as to why that would be. Hints of the Justice Society returning to action huh? Could it because of this so called JSA series that David keeps hinting at? A nice wrap up to a short run on this title Brian. The new membership seems interesting. I am not anxious to see what Don has in store next. I have to mention how cool the pin-up cover was Adam. Great stuff. Your style works well and its nice to see it showcased on the big Justice League stage. |

LOL Take care Don Well since you've edited a story of mine, you should know that I a not a very good writer. Typo is my middle name. Justice League #8 is next on my list!
