About this deal

We could've gotten a better sense of what's going on in Grail's head, but instead, there's a weird interlude in the middle where the Justice Leaguers gain godlike powers and spend some time being gods. Lex as a hero is a smart idea, and having him do it purely out of ego and narcissism (and not an actual want to help people) is just brilliant. The final story arc, The Darkseid War, is full of bombastic moments are is non stop from the first page to the last and helps set up future story arcs that were a part of the Rebirth story/line of comics.

The only way to liberate himself and go back to normal is to kill Darkseid - and that's what happens. This character, Grail, has really conflicting motivations that pivot like three times within the climax of this storyline. I don't get why it had to be this way when Johns had five years to establish these core elements of his climactic arc. Nevertheless, both volumes of these omnibus collected editions were page turners filled with some good stuff. As this evil version of the Justice League takes over the DC Universe, no one stands in the way of them and complete domination.I also noticed that his writing is also a lot less self-serious from here on out - evil Jor El telling his wife to shut up and die as Krypton explodes around them was an unexpected laugh. Coupled with the consistently great artwork, this is a really good read, though it still doesn't live up to Johns' best runs. Most purchases from business sellers are protected by the Consumer Contract Regulations 2013 which give you the right to cancel the purchase within 14 days after the day you receive the item. Volume 1 was a setup volume, Geoff Johns took it slow and allowed you to get to know or even fall in love with each of these characters individually, even the B and C-list characters as well, but in this volume, Geoff takes them to HIGHER heights. It’s a thrilling combination of largely character driven story and near cinema like artwork that evokes the work of a Bryan Hitch.

I suppose it should go without saying that you're better off forgetting everything that was established about the Monitors pre-N52.As this evil version of the Justice League takes over the DC Universe, no one stands in the way of them and complete domination…no one except for Lex Luthor. In a flash of light, the world’s most powerful heroes vanish as the Crime Syndicate arrives from Earth-3!
