Product Description:
The Justice League of America is reborn in this hardcover graphic novel collecting classic stories from the late 1980s, as no-nonsense heroes including Batman, Black Canary and Dr. Fate attempt to work with disruptive newcomers Blue Beetle, Booster Gold, and the rowdy Guy Gardner Green Lantern. Brought together by master manipulator Maxwell Lord (later the villain of INFINITE CRISIS), this new Justice League must battle evil while facing internal dissension.At the same time, they also must uncover Lords own secret agenda.

I was really disappointed in DC's choice to print this $25 hardcover using their matte paper (what they used on the Kirby omnibus series) rather than the standard glossy paper used on the vast majority of hardcovers and trades released today. This paper choice, in my opinion, drains the material of life and I could just pull my back issues to experience this duller appearing format.
The actual stories contained in this book though are classics and hold up well.

If you own the Justice League: A New Beginning TPB, you already have all the stories in this volume - minus a new introduction, a 1987 poster reproduced as a two-page spread, and an encyclopedia entry.

The book isn't without faults though. Regarding the story, there are a few plot holes. For instance, is Dr. Light in the league at the end of the book? Or is she just slapped on the cover for kicks and giggles?
All in all, it's a good book. ... Read More

So, this lighthearted take on the Justice League ranks as a personal favorite. And, despite the few grumpies who denounced it, this particular incarnation of DC's flagship title, from 1987 and on to the '90s, was an overwhelming success. Cherry picking from the roster of the Legends: The Collection mini-series, plotter Keith Giffen, scripter J.M. DeMatteis, and artists Kevin Maguire, Al Gordon, and Terry Austin (for one issue) were able to inject big new life into this flagging title. Flagging? JLA had ... Read More
