☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis second volume of the New 52 Justice League hardcover series collects issues #7-12, as well as the zero issue, from the 2011 relaunch. Written by Geoff Johns with art by Jim Lee, Gene Ha, and others, it features the team's first encounter with the alien conqueror Despero and the introduction of the villainous Secret Society of Super Villains. The collection also includes the origin of the team's newest member, the Shazam-powered Billy Batson, in a backup story running through the volume.
In "Shazam!", Freddy shadows Billy on a midnight trip to the zoo, where the boy visits a tiger named Tawny—only to uncover a shared secret that sparks a plan against the Bryers. Meanwhile, Sivana, now wielding a newfound sight into magic, tracks down the long-lost tomb of Black Adam. Geoff Johns writes this pulse-pounding chapter, with Gary Frank’s dynamic art bringing every shadowed step and charged moment to life, while Jim Lee’s cover captures the electric tension of the moment.
