Justice Leagues: JL? #1
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThe opening chapter of DC's 2001 "Justice Leagues" event arrives with a cover by George Pérez that sets the stakes immediately: a smug, sunglasses-wearing figure looms large in the foreground, phone in hand, while a shattered-glass motif scatters Superman, Wonder Woman, the Martian Manhunter, a red-costumed hero, Green Lantern, Batman, and a blonde hero across a star-filled void — the tagline "Breaking them up was just the beginning…" making his scheming role unmistakable. It's a beautifully composed ensemble piece, with Pérez packing in a full roster of DC's finest while keeping the central villain's satisfaction front and center. Writer Tom Peyer and interior artist Ethan Van Sciver have a lot to live up to after an opening image this charged.
