Not as good as the first volume but still an entertaining read.

State library ILL records show I requested this on 2020-09-29 and it found its way home on 2020-12-15, and the blurb seems familiar, so taking credit for finishing it...

I'm grateful for every effort to keep the Legion alive. Plus, Equinox is pretty cool.

Jeff Lemire is one of the best writers in comics currently. It seems like he can just take any superhero or team and make them important. Justice League United Vol. 1 and 2 are basically the Infinitus Saga. Jeff Lemire does a great job of balancing the time we get to spend with each League member. It should not be hard to get into Green Arrow's head as h e just finished up a stellar run with the character. I agree with what one reviewer said this story was more interesting than some of the event...

A solid Justice League story but nothing earth shattering. I like the Legion of Super-Heroes but the story would have probably have been better served if he focused on fewer members. It's a lot for a reader to even juggle. I thought the Future's End story was better. It was more tightly focused and featured some of DC's heavyweight villains.

This second volume is better than the first, although that's nothing remarkable. Good but not great. The best thing about the volume in my opinion was the appearance by the Legion of Superheroes. The Infinitus saga is a decent effort--there were some moments I really enjoyed as I was reading, although I have to admit none of them stuck with me enough to provide examples right this second.

I think that, by bringing in the Legion of Superheroes, a little more heft has been added to this title. Whenever the LOS gets involved, you know that the consequences could be universal and long-lasting; so, in this volume of JLU, the stakes became higher and this DCU b-list team was up against something that actually tested their mettle.The only thing is.... as a big LOS fan, I can't seem to place when in their timeline this story would have taken place. It's after the Brainiac/Supergirl relat...

I found this volume to be SO much more enjoyable than the first volume. I liked the focus on J’onn and Ultra’s relationship, the budding friendship between Kara, Courtney, and Miyhabin, as well as the appearance of the Legion (a team that I really need to read more of). Pushing the lame arguing between Buddy and Oliver into the background really helped.This is a fun galaxy spanning storyline with a true villain in Lord Byth. I would love to see more of him. For as much as I made fun of Justice L...

I thought the first volume was much better. We were just getting to know the Justice League United better and then they bring in this Legion of Superheroes from the 31st century. What in the world?? There were like 20 new characters all the sudden and I didn't know any of them and it was just a horrible mess. I mean a mess. What were they thinking and how did they think this was a good idea. It didn't feel big to me or like anything mattered. It felt like a failed experiment. I do like the JLU a...

Terminally average. It hits all the cliches - teams of super heroes who fight first, then talk before teaming up. McGuffin who will become extremely powerful and destroy the universe unless stopped a millenium earlier. A PROFOUND misunderstanding of how time travel works (if you're able to go 1,000 years in the past, 24 hours in the past doesn't mean the future has moved 24 hours ahead too; you can go back to the exact time you left. Really, it's not that complex). Lots of B and C list character...

The 'Futures End' chapter at the beginning threw me off at first. I thought I'd somehow missed some tie-in event under another title, which is annoyingly common with DC. But upon closer examination (aka reading every. single. text. bubble. on the first page) I realized my mistake and was happy to find the main story picking up at the conclusion of the Futures End bit. Why the publisher put it at the beginning of the volume instead of the end, I just don't know. Overall, an all right volume, but

Always fun to see any iteration of the Legion of Super-Heroes in action these days, and always fun to see them interact with any iteration of the Justice League. The story felt a little convoluted to me (especially the whole "kill Hawkman, oh wait he's not really dead, because we're going to kill him again in his own miniseries a year from now..." aspect (ain't hind-sight grand?)). But art is over-all excellent, and I like Lemire's characterizations of the Leaguers for the most part.

Future's End. A good Future's End story because it accepts but doesn't obsess on the dark-and-gritty future. Instead, we get an interesting story of the JLA + JLU that hints at possible future events for both teams while also telling an exciting story of a future jailbreak [7/10].Infinitus Cycle. This was why I actually picked up the comic, to see what's going on with the Legion and get some better closure on Legion Lost. Unfortunately, it's got excessive fighting in the nu52 style: the Legion a...

Granted, there were some weak spots in the storytelling, but this was an excellent graphic novel. This was better than any "event" that DC has done in the past decade, and it wasn't even an event.

Still a pretty fun Justice League, so it's a bit sad it was so short-lived. The inclusion of the Legion of Super-Heroes was very welcome, especially since this Legion was a mix of classic and less-classic members. And I still really like Equinox, so I hope her stories continue.

Solstice deserves so much better than this.

Not even Lemire can make the Legion of Superheroes interesting.

Considerably more engaging than the first volume, it’s difficult to know if this works because of or in spite of the deluge of characters from the Legion of Superheroes. With so many characters jostling for space on the page, it’s difficult to form an emotional attachment with any of them, although the members of the JLU still dominate. Two quibbles: Brainiac 5 is irritating and condescending, and the costumes for Supergirl and Dream Girl show extraordinary amounts of leg and, lets be honest, bu...
