Well... It looks great. But the ending was choppy, rushed, convoluted, and forced by necessity to push a reset button on the whole thing to the point where it doesn't even matter if this is in continuity or not. Disappointing, but pretty.

An ok conclusion to an ok series

Reread it after many years, expecting to be disappointed. In truth, the opening twist is quite good, even though the reveal and resolution are patently superhero-silly.Beautiful art throughout, though.

Now this was good and I think better than the past two volumes, especially the first one that I wasn't a huge fan. The story was good and the art was good. This brought the conclusion for the League going against their enemies and Brainic, who was the leader (don't tell that to Lex).

Justice has been a surprise hit for me but does it finish strong? This is it. The villains are out in full force, but so are the heroes. After the build up of all the heroes getting their asses handed to them it's their turn to fight back. Huge world battles all around. Multiple heroes facing off against multiple villains. It's almost as if the writer and artist had all these toys and started placing them in a bin and playing with them with pows and kicks and so on. Good: There's some great mome...

It's kind of clever the way the plan came together at the end, although I feel like this was more a series of cool moments than a unified story. I am going to have to single out Captain Marvel crushing Kryptonite in his fist so Superman doesn't have to be afraid of it ever again. That isn't going to work. It can still hurt him even if it's in little bitty pieces and now it's harder to clean up. Wisdom of Solomon my ass.

The cover made me think the heroes are ready for payback!!!

The only way to describe the conclusion to this story is to call it spectacular.

Overall, gotta admit that I enjoyed this story a little more than expected. Parts of it didn't entirely work for me - the ease with which Brainiac's turning humans into robotic life was undone, the literal deus ex machina of Wonder Woman being reborn, anything with Zatanna (sorry - I can't get past the lameness of talking backwards to cast spells, or the anything-goes-except-what-the-writer-doesn't-want aspect of her powers - she can chase Brainiac anywhere, but couldn't say "NamauqA, raeppa" wh...

This was a fairly satisfying end to the series. There were some nice moments in these last four issues. As I said in previous reviews, the plot is overly complicated and the whole thing is a bit too high-concept. But it's fun to read and it gives Braithwaite and Ross a lot of opportunities to create some amazing art. If you like Alex Ross and the Silver Age JLA, you can't really go wrong with this.As a side note, I found myself thinking about Brad Meltzer's Identity Crisis a number of times whil...

This review is for the entire Justice Maxi-SeriesAs it went along I became aware that justice was nothing short of a big, stinky turd, which may be a bit crass, but seems the only phrase befitting it. What promised to be a superhero epic that examined true heroism and villainy continually became more and more predictable and disappointing. The writing was often times cheesy and/or muddy, leaving me scratching my head as to what was going on or laughing at the utter stupidity of what I did unders...

I don't really have much to add to this particular volume's review other than a re-iteration of some previous thoughts. Ultimately, the series as whole (this being the final volume) did not live up to the promise and potential of the first volume for me. It was a series set to explore villainy and heroism by asking some really interesting questions and presenting some challenging situations. I feel like we did not really explore the most unique aspect of this story nearly enough as the series be...

What it's about: In this final volume of the collection, the heroes find themselves backed into a corner. The villains have convinced the world that the heroes have failed them, and that only the villains can provide for humanity the safety and security they'd like. The heroes have been infiltrated, betrayed, and defeated at every turn. The villains have either captured or taken control of the heroes' loved ones, creating a hostage situation and fighting force that the heroes cannot push back ag...

Justice gives a lot of B & C-list characters moments to shine, but the story itself left something to be desired. What if every supervillain teamed up? What if they knew everyone's secret identities? What if super villains actually DID decide to help solve all the worlds problems instead acting selfishly? And why havent the Justice League tried to do anything on that scale? The book asks a lot of questions and creates some interesting scenarios that arent fully explored the way I would have like...

Justice, Volume 3 brings the story to a conclusion and heroes and villains head into final conflict. While story has a satisfying resolution, it is a bit of a mess to get there. So many different plot lines and plot points have been set out through the story, meaning there's a lot of confusion and it can be hard to keep track of as we're switching back and forth a lot. Still, even if you're a bit confused, you can always feast your eyes on the glorious artwork, which really carries this tremendo...

Wow, the art by Braithwaite and Ross.So, that's where Legion of Doom from current Justice League stories comes from: 1970s Super Friends, per Alex Ross' essay in Introduction here. This is about the best pre-Crisis JLA I could imagine, though. I love that both Plastic Man and Elongated Man are featured, with some small friction. You even get Teen Titans, Doom Patrol, Marvel Family, and Supergirl in this volume.I am a fan of Braithwaite's appealing pencil art. Have we got Alex Ross scheduled for

This one was the weakest of the bunch, but still enjoyable. I think its issue was the same with a lot of graphic novels that try to incorporate 10+ characters: the stories start to wear thin and it gets a bit loosey goosey. Don’t get me wrong, the art was still great (I love those big group shots) and I saw a lot of new characters, but it does make for a story that’s more difficult to follow. I also don’t know too many dc characters (heroes and their nemeses). The Batman notes at the end are hel...

The last third of the Justice maxi-series by Alex Ross, Jim Krueger, and others concludes here and I'm underwhelmed. While the new looks created here all look amazing, their point and the plot itself is nonsense. The plot holes here are too many to overlook. Some of the ideas are great but the final execution is lacking. Of course the art is good as expected but stiff at times. Overall, an unfortunate ending.

Finally, the villains plan is discovered by the JLA and it's time to take the fight to the Legion of Doom members controlled by Braniac.A nonstop thrill ride of a final act. The writing is incredibly tight and the spectacular art helps speed along the story. If you're a fan of big scale stories and all the best villains in the DCU, JUSTICE is for you!

A simple story done extremely well. The worlds villains just fix everything. Cancer, cured! The hungry, fed! The lame, walk! These guys are basically gods and know they are benevolent, but of course they are not. Alex ross is a true legend and according to the dude at my LCS goes to the Starbucks over by my apartment sometimes. He is a master and every comic fan needs to see an Alex ross story.
