The Pulse:
I figured this book was building to something, but I didn’t know it was building to DC’s next event. It was clear though that whatever JLO was building it would involve time. An entertaining and intriguing plot, an often unwieldly cast of characters, rendered with just ok art. Strength was the story. 6.5 out of 10.
