Justice League Europe #8

Part four of "The Teasdale Imperative" brings the full roster of Justice League Europe together with guest stars Justice League America for what the cover promises is a tense moment of reckoning. Bart Sears and Art Nichols frame the assembled heroes — including a caped figure, a green-costumed woman, the scarlet Flash, and several armored and costumed teammates — surveying a devastated European village, smoke billowing against a mountain backdrop, as one hero's muttered "Uh oh…" sets an ominous tone. With Giffen and DeMatteis steering the story and Sears's art bringing the chaos to life, this 1989 issue delivers the kind of ensemble superhero drama that made this era of DC team books so genuinely enjoyable.
