Justice Society of America #5 Spoilers and Review.
The first five (5) pages of the issue are rather consequential and were released for free before the issue hit the stands.
Yes, Batman meets his future daughter as well as the Justice Society of America (JSA) before they are all confronted by time-villain Per Degaton and his selves from across time.
They make-up a Per Degaton Society.
They have replaced the JSA in the past, present, future and beyond.
The omnipresent snow globe artifact is said to wield immense power which Doctor Fate harnesses.
With that a cross-time assemblage of the JSA emerge.
The Justice Society of America from the past, present, future and beyond take out the Per Degaton Society.
In fact, they lock the primary Per Degaton in the snow globe with the Flashpoint Batman Beyond, the Joker and their Robin stemming from Flashpoint Beyond #6 (full spoilers here).
As the JSA basks in their victory, the Huntress knows that Batman knows that she needs to return to her own time as Power Girl winks out of existence.
The book begins to end with the modern-era Justice Society of America grappling with the ramifications of the time-travel threatening efforts of Per Degaton and its impact on the Huntress.
That’s when the book actually ends with the Flash Jay Garrick’s daughter Judy Garrick aka the Boom coming into the picture with Stargirl and the Hourman of DC One Million teasing more timeline issues from Stargirl and the Lost Children #6 (full spoilers here).
Interesting to see how this will also tie into the finale of Doomsday Clock #12 (full spoilers here).
The Pulse
An action-packed, intriguing and fun issue. Solid art by the creative teams. Great cliffhanger. 8 out of 10.
