Good, until the Trinity War crossover issues started, then I gave up reading it. Seems really dumb that they were included. The book just has part 2 and 4 (and skipped part 1 and 3 since they were in a different comic or comics).

Green Arrow! Catwoman! Katana! Vibe! Hawkman! Stargirl! They aren’t the world’s greatest super heroes—they’re the most dangerous! But why does a team like the JLA need to exist?

This was my very first comic book I can call my own. After getting into it, I realized that even though it is issue #1 in this series, it's not really #1 as far as the entire story. It already assumes the establishment of The Justice League (just not of America), and all the heroes. I think I'll go get me one of the origin stories in the new 52 before I continue this series.That being said, I actually enjoyed it. And intend to try another. I was first struck by how impossible it seems to recreat...
This was a setup assembling the team issue, but a pretty good one. Amanda Waller has Steve Trevor gather people to join the Justice League of America, which, in this context, operates under the government. Trevor is skeptical about certain choices, like recruiting Catwoman even if she won’t be in the foreground. Having recently seen a bit of Stargirl in Justice League Action and knowing her show is coming up, I’m curious to see how she fits in with the team. She seems like a teen celebrity, whic...
A excellent read.A virtual whos who of superheroes enter the story.Capped of by the origin story of Martian Manhunter.
This graphic novel collects issues 1-7 of Justice League of America World's most Dangerous. The dust jacket states that this is the pulse pounding birth of a new kind of super hero team. It's a full color graphic novel and the art work starts strong though near the end it slips a bit. My biggest problem with this collection is it's incomplete. The new Justice League is built to combat the old league in case it ever turns against the human race.(they are a fail safe) The new team consists of Gree...
Geoff Johns first arc on the new 52 Justice League of America is very intriguing. The reasons for the team's creation is rather sinister but Johns' makes it fun in fact I'd say JLA's origin story is better than Johns' Origins story for the Justice League. This story feels more personal and features a more grounded opening. The only problem is that the characters aren't too detailed but I suppose we'll learn more about them as we go along; Johns makes up for some of the characters' ambiguity with...
Interesting group of hero's we have here. Manhunter take a lot of the spotlight, and that is fine by me.
Confession time: I grew up as much with Lynda Carter's Wonder Woman as I did Adam West's Batman (in reruns! I'm not that old!) and Christopher Reeve's Superman. So Steve Trevor, to me, is as iconic as, say, Lois Lane is. And that excited me about the New 52, that he was finally getting his due. And, truly, I now love the character. And even more? I'm fascinated by the interaction between him and Catwoman in this volume, which I have the feeling is never expounded on, but I'll take what I can get...
This volume started off strong and then lost its focus. I was excited about the concept of a separate Justice League run by the USA and Amanda Waller. It was a dark and clever concept. But, after that it went off the rails. It was fun, but it didn’t really go anywhere.
An absolute mess! Geoff Johns and David Finch's relaunch of the classic title is chock full of people reading files aloud and not much else! Full review here.
You can find the full review over at The Founding Fields:http://thefoundingfields.com/2013/03/...Since I got back into comics last year, Geoff Johns has become one of my best reads. I started reading his current Green Lantern series, then Justice League, followed on with Aquaman, and now I’ve been suckered into Justice League of America. Of all his books I’ve read to date, Aquaman is easily his best in terms of consistently good stories and characterisation, with Green Lantern coming a close sec...
I like it, a bit intrigued how this will turn out.
I've never read a collection of Justice League comics before. Almost everything I know about them I learned from the animated cartoons. That being said, J'onn J'onzz is my fave and he never gets any love (except, what do I know? I've never read the Justice League comics), but he plays a large role in this collection, and it was wonderful. Catwoman gets the spotlight, too (one of my favorite feline, I mean, female comics characters), and so does the Question. It's exciting when my favorite charac...
An interesting read until the writers randomly throw you into the middle of the Trinity War. It will make far more sense once I read that full story arc.
David Finch does an incredible job here. Every panel is beautiful. And that Geoff Johns guy? Yeah, he's pretty good. I really enjoyed this book. Perhaps its because the characters seem more straight-up reboots than the Justice League proper, but they worked. It may also be because most of the character stuff occurs between Steven Trevor, Amanda Waller, and Star Girl rather than the classic heroes...Still, I enjoyed it. I was a bit disappointed when so much of it turned out to be Trinity War, not...
An example of why I don't like the New 52. They've turned the main canon of the DC universe into an elswhere project, like Watchmen, Supreme Power or The Ultimates. These are characters anymore, they're just concepts. Three stars for the first four issues. I didn't read the the rest because they take place during Trinity War.
I was really enjoying this book until the crossover. This volume collects issues 1-7 of New 52 Justice League of America. I really enjoyed the writing, and love the characters they picked for this team. I knew nothing about JLA & I thought the story was going along at a great pace (couldn't put it down) until the crossover with the new Justice League title. They throw you in in the middle of a story and you have no idea what's going on! It's awful!I understand they're starting all these new titl...
Ok, of course I read the first 4 volumes of Justice League first, because I am a purist, and in doing that, I did not like the fact that the New 52 created 2 Justice Leagues. Now after reading this first volume, entitled "World's Most Dangerous," i admit I was wrong. Amanda Waller and a reluctant Steve Trevor assembling a team of their own heroes, in case they ever need to keep the other Justice League in check is brilliant, and so is this graphic novel. The plot, involving the new team trying t...
Totally enjoyed this one for the most part, until I got to the end and too much was all over the place. Maybe it was my mood at the time, but I reread it and I was straight. It was fun getting (re)introduced to more of the DC Universe, beyond the Justice League that is. After reading, I am totally looking forward to and ready for Trinity War.
