The League may be on to something here
First of all, when the Justice League is good it is a lot of fun. When they are in a rut with fringe characters because of what is going on in those other books, it can be a drag. Currently, the JLA is in that rut. I do not buy that book to read about Dr. Light or Vixen. Go back and read Meltzer's arc that started the newest JLA and see how and why it can be great. Or, go look at the Morrison/Porter issues (and beyond) of the last run, which was also terrific. So, when I heard that the writer of this Cry for Justice arc was going to move onto JLA when this series is done, I was excited to say the least. Geoff Johns has made Green Lantern one of the coolest premier hereos in the DC universe right now and he can definately carry the JLA into the future if Superman, Batman and WW are off doing other things or dead right now. Green Arrow, Supergirl and the Atom are also cool charaters that bring a mix of young, old and muscle to the group. Now, Congrilla and that blue guy from outer space, whose name escapes me, may need to convice me why they are there, but I am willing to learn more. As for this series itself, the art is amazing and worth the purchase price alone, but the stroy is getting better, the charcthers explored well and a team is beginning to gel that might/hopefully take over the regular JLA title so we can get some real tension and action in these stories. The recent Arcs in JLA have been terrible and an infusion of some old school Justice would be much welcomed. (find a way to keep Firestorm, though, he is cool. And Black Canary). Buy this series, it will lead into what is going to happen in JLA and the art is superior.
