I'll make this brief. I really enjoyed this book - based on comments on here, the book well surpassed my expectations. After reading Identity Crisis I was instantly a big Brad Meltzer fan, and this was more good works with a blend of very funny moments with very deep overall writing. The first component of "The Lightning Saga" (hereafter "TLS") was basically a "training" story. After all of the fascinating-but-yet-emotionally-tiring seriousness of DC over the past half-decade this was a nice ... Read More

I really try to enjoy Brad's work as a comic writer. For one, I really liked Identy Crisis and the implications it brought. Its not that "The Lightning Saga" is bad, its just that it could be done in fewer pages, with fewer characters. Johns segments are way better but really don't save the book in my view.
Now, if you flip to Red Arrow's and Vixen's underground tale, well, what a treat. Will Eisner would be proud of the way diagrams, borders and even the margins of this comic are used ... Read More

For all the hard work that Brad Meltzer, Geoff Johns, and half a dozen pencillers and inkers have put into the title story of this collection, "The Lightning Saga" reads like an evening of Dungeons & Dragons enacted by characters who think they're in a Jacobean revenge tragedy.

This is a story ... Read More

The reboot of the JLA starting off with Meltzer's run and into McDuffies has just been dry.
The growth of the Red Tornado was cool for the first few issues, but it hasn't gone anywhere and it has flip-flopped so many times in 25 issues that I am just confused and don't care anymore.
Everything was right going in...
Batman, Superman, and Wonderwoman on the same page - check.
Promoting fan favorites - Check.
Bringing in some under-rated characters - check. ... Read More

After the slow "Tornado's Path" storyline, Meltzer steps it up here with the fast-paced "Lightning Saga." The majority of the best scenes occur in Geoff Johns's "Justice Society" segments, collected here in order (although no mention is made of the Justice Society on the front cover). This is one of the better JLA stories in years.
