I really need to just stop reading Geoff Johns' work, I think (if I had known this was him before I grabbed it in the library, I probably wouldn't have picked it up, to be honest).
The story's a bit of a mess. The JSA is a huge group - twenty-odd superheroes, some of whom have been heroing for over 70 years (in-story, not just in terms of publication history). There's so many of them here, in fact, that you don't really end up caring about any individual character, because there isn't enough time...more

The DC Crisis stories are always so much fun. This series spawns off the events that were set in motion by Geoff Johns' INFINATE CRISIS story. Alex Ross and Geoff Johns have blended their two DC worlds to tell the story of how Magog (the villain in Ross's KINGDOM COME series) came to be.
The best part of the story is when Power Girl gets pulled into an alternate universe where the Justice Society is made up of the son's and daughters of the original heroes; the most important one being Helena Wa...more

More solid story telling by Geoff Johns in part two of this triology. Here Gog appears and we get idea of what people are willing to give up if they think a "god" is going to grant their desires. We do get the question of whether or not Gog is good or evil, or if those concepts apply to his actions.
Read this volume back to back with Part One. Part One is definitely lacking but full of foreshadowing. This one was pretty much awesome. Loved Gog and all his attempts at doing good. It's clearly apparent as to why he was removed from his previous residence by the end of this volume. I'm hoping they can rationalize with him, but that wouldn't make as entertaining of a read. Really nice twist at the end as to who Magog ends up being.

Please see my review for the entire Thy Kingdom Come series on the first volume, which can be found here.
Library copy; sadly I'll be lost coming into the story late and missing all the backstory. Love the Ross covers and Eaglesham art, I'm a bit at a loss about all the Earth-2 dimensional cross-over stuff that JSA obviously has a long history with. I wasn't too crazy about the story arc of Grogg and with such a large cast hardly any character got enough "screen time."
