DC Histories: Justice Society of America
May 2, 2012 5:42 pm A pretty good summary of the history of the JSA - not one of - but THE first AND best superteam in comics history!
R.I.P.
I say that because you will probably never see them again! (unless in an 'Elseworld's' tale!)
I have just read the abomination that is callled "Earth 2"# 1 today and as a result, will not buy it, or another DC title ever again.
This book is NOT about "Earth 2" - it is about "nu Earth 2" - which uis just a carbon copy of the awful, rebbiooted nu52 world we already love to hate! This will therefore be a book about a 'nuJSA' - NOT the original, classic team discussed above!
Don't be fooled!
There is nothing new here - in fact it is goddam awful! The same old same old grim, dark, violent 'edgy' world - God help us!
The only thing DC is using from the JSA and the (proper) Earth 2 is the JSA characters names! Only therir names mind you - nothing else is recognisable - origins, histories, costumes, characters, contexts - NOTHING!!
They are USING that to lure you in, and into hoping it will make people think that this is the JSA - and the character's youth - well it isn't - what it is, is A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT SET OF CHARACTERS ALTOGETHER!!
There is NO resemblence to the JSA we know at all!
DON'T BUY IT - BOYCOTT THIS AWFUL BOOK!!!
