1 post | 3 read
Written by rising star Steve Orlando (BATMAN, MIDNIGHTER) and illustrated by a league of superstar artists including Ivan Reis (GREEN LANTERN) and Andy MacDonald (DETECTIVE COMICS), this JUSTICE LEAGUE VS. SUICIDE SQUAD spin-off is a JLA for a whole new era--exploding from the pages of the blockbuster DC Rebirth event! The Justice League and the Suicide Squad„the WorldÍs Greatest Heroes and its worst„went to war. A team unlike any other rose from the ashes. Batman. Black Canary. Vixen. The Atom. The Ray. Killer Frost. Lobo. Some are heroes, some are villains and some exist in the gray area in between. But the Caped Crusader sees the potential in all of them to show everyday people that their superhuman guardians are just like them: capable of fighting for justice despite their flaws. Batman had better be right, because Earth is about to be invaded by a threat from beyond our universe. The tyrant called Lord Havok and his army of Extremists are out to make the planet safe again„by destroying the free will of all its inhabitants. Can this untested new Justice League help America fend off the ExtremistsÍ agenda? And can the Dark Knight contain the Main Man„the living weapon of mass destruction known as Lobo? Discover the answers in JUSTICE LEAGUE OF AMERICA VOL. 1: THE EXTREMISTS! Collects issues #1-6 and JUSTICE LEAGUE OF AMERICA: REBIRTH #1.

Batman‘s new team of misfits take on DC‘s very intentional version of Dr. Doom, Lord Havoc and his Marvel-inspired cronies in this new JLA‘s 1st team effort, with an emphasis on the political ramifications of superheroism.

Our misfit heroes discuss supporting community infrastructure while busting goons‘ heads and I dig it.

Plus grad-student-turned-new-Atom Ryan Choi‘s friendship with semi-reformed mass-murdering alien Lobo is adorable.
