Justice League #3

Parademons are attacking all around the country. Wonder Woman joins the fight against this threat and everyone eventually meets Aquaman. 

Justice League has received mixed reviews since it's inception a couple of months back. Lots of people dislike Geoff Johns writing. I'm not one of them. I'm not a critic and I'm not saying I like everything, but this series really isn't that bad. It has been plagued with slow pacing as the team has yet to come together completely and this is the third issue already. Timing is everything and you obviously don't want to rush things, but by now they probably should have had the team come together. We just now finally received our first look at Darkseid. Slow pacing is really the only negative this series presents. I think Johns just wants to be thorough by filling in readers about these characters and how they were and they were perceived by humanity.

A lot of focus was put into Wonder Woman this issue. She's a little different then we've known her to be. Then again she's younger right now. This story is set in the past. Perhaps after this story arc we'll see her more like we know her to be. I look forward to next months issue to see what they do with Aquaman. 

The art is by Jim Lee so you pretty much know what to expect. As always he does great work. Seeing his art anytime is a treat. I'm looking forward to next issue to see him draw Aquaman more.

Justice League is a series that is suppose to be fun and exciting. It's not suppose have a complex plot that slowly unfolds over time. It's suppose to be superheroes defending the world. That's why they formed the team. You have to take it for what it is to enjoy it. If you want a detective mystery, read Batman. You don't like superheroes, don't read this. You should already know what to expect honestly. If you're not into this kind of stuff then why pick it up? I'm enjoying this series but I will be honest when I say it's not exactly a series I look forward to each week. Perhaps in the future it will be.
