Fun first chapter. Basically JSA and JLA all have a party and it's a good time. It's not amazing or anything but it's fun. Joker running shit could be interesting but is this the same timeline as the original? We know where it'll go...

As I've mentioned in my Podcast, I've been a fan of Tom Taylor's Injustice story. It's a great out-of-continuity peace, and he has definitely thoroughly built the world and space around it. It's great to dive back in with more familiar faces such as the Justice Society! And to take a look back at how the world was before the events of Injustice.

It's good to see it back.

The hype was so absolutely well deserved. Another knock out. Another win. And another fun time in this universe before it goes to hell.
