8th book read in 2014. Number 174 out of 352 on my all time book list.Follow the link below to see my video review:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZSida...

Booster Gold is one of my favourite DCU characters, but to see what Dan Jurgens has done to him in this title makes my heart sob. Thank goodness they cancelled this series. It is an embarrassment.But it had potential. It had all of these peripheral characters, each with their own personality, adding their own dynamic to a totally dysfunctional team... It's a great set-up! Think, "Secret Six" or "The Outsiders"... So much potential can be found in this formula! But JLI ended up being the comic wh...

JLI only ran 12 issues and an annual. In that time, they mostly just got their asses kicked. I'm not sure what DC's initial intentions were, but it seems like they weren't really going for an ongoing series. Just like volume 1, I liked this better than I thought I would. It was nice to see some second-stringers in action, espeically since they are striving to find their own place and in the case of several members, their attempt to become first-stringers.

Would love to see DC continue this series. Great fun. Old-fashioned comic booking.

Really happy with this one but am glad I knew it had been cancelled before I started or I would have been upset. While I'd heard of Booster Gold he was a new character for me and I really like him. Four new superheroes are added to the team whom I also had never heard of except one, though I know nothing about any of them and this one volume certainly wasn't enough to form an opinion on them yet. Blue Beetle, Olympian, Batwing and O.M.A.C. are the new guys. For most of the book they are fighting...

I read the single issues (including annual #1) instead of the trade edition.I can't believe how awful this was. There were so many problems with this story and the bad writing and revolving characters didn't help. I can really see why this was canceled.The artwork is still the best thing about this series.

Dear Lord, what happened? Hideous Firestorm cameo issue, Batman defeated by a poseur, then is mysteriously missing from containment in the next issue, all the "good" members dead or in the hospital, etc.

In my continuing quest to throw myself on the New 52 landmines before they can take down more of my Goodreads Gang of homeboys and girls, I read yet another master of garbage: Dan Jurgens! I think his last name is Jurgens because you need to wash yourself after reading this stuff (Jergens Soap).So at the end of the last volume, some baddies blew up the UN with all of the JLI inside. Sadly, they should have left the series dead right there, and sporadically have some of the characters show up els...

A really underrated series. Aaron Lopresti's pencils are great for superheroics that convey a good mix of emotion and action, and Dan Jurgens' story was just starting to get really interesting in this volume, before it's untimely cancellation.

(C+) 67% | Almost SatisfactoryNotes: Its protagonists are pathetic posers: piss-and-moan protectors puling about powerlessness and piteous predicaments.

This was a hard rating to give. I cannot truly claim that this set of adventures for the JLI was all bad, but there were enough flaws that set my teeth on edge, that it is hard to claim that I actually 'liked' it.So, what's right: The color and art are consistently rich, vibrant and draw the eye. The core heroes are neither overblown in physical characteristic nor skills nor attitude (except Batman. He is, after all, an archetype). The plot is somewhat reasonable in a broad-brush sort of way.But...

In Justice League, the main character is the team itself the J.L.I. The team is responsible and respectful. The main conflict occurs when the some of the team members die or get injured. Will the J.L.I. be able to do save the city without the members that are not on the team anymore? Overall, I enjoyed the book because it's exciting but sometimes I was put off about the time change into the past. I was concerned/disappointed when the some of the team members died. Just a warning the book does ha...

You might as well call it 'Justice League - Revolving Door' - Of the 8 issues collected here, at least half either introduce or remove members from the cast - with more crossovers per capita than most series have in their entire lifetime. How can you get invested when you don't know who's going to be there from issue to issue? The first issue sidelines almost the entire female side of the team, then tries to replace them with a variety of random characters. There are some new villains introduced...

The first volume of JLI was surprisingly enjoyable, despite the fact that it is very hard not to compare it to the more famous Giffen/DeMatteis JLI. This second volume again builds on the ideas of the first volume to create a very enjoyable storyline that continues nicely from where we left off in the first six issues as the JLI attempts to track down the terrorists who set off a bomb at the United Nations. The artwork is top notch from Aaron Lopresti, and whilst it's a shame that Fire, Ice, and...

This book series has lost all of the magic that made it enjoyable, and so there's no wonder that it has been cancelled.

I picked this up because I was craving some Booster Gold, and boy was that not my best move. The final issue collected here written by Geoff Johns and Dan DiDio was better and actually got me interested in continuing with that story line, but the main bulk od this book written by Jurgens was just not for me. The dialogue felt weird in a lot of places, and I kept losing interest and putting the book down. There's a "teachable" moment between Batman and BatWing that I specifically remember liking,...

Reprints Justice League International #7-12 and Annual #1 and The Fury of Firestorm: The Nuclear Men #9 (May 2012-October 2012). The Justice League International team has been shattered before it has even begins. With Rocket Red dead and half the team in the hospital, Booster Gold must rebuild the team to take out the terrorists responsible before it is too late…but a new recruit could be the biggest danger to the JLI.Written by Dan Jurgens with additional writing from Geoff Johns, Dan Didio, Et...

This comic is definitaly amazing.

Confusing, meandering and redundant.

A breath of fresh air after the last GN I read. Great art. A story that I could follow (until the end).What happened to Booster?
