Justice Society of America (2007-2011): Thy Kingdom Come Part III

Jsa vs magog

An excellent adaption of the DC Universe. Great storyline and plenty of action. You definitely don't want to put the book down.

Geoff John's is DC. This is one of his most brilliant achievements. I'm not going to give anything away, just say read this and revel in it. Revel. Brilliant!

This volume completes the carefully crafted story They Kingdom Come, a follow-up of sorts of the Kingdom Come blockbuster by Waid and Ross.Johns is a master at story-telling, and his long-running fan favorite Justice Society explains why: he understands his characters and their motivations, and is a master and moving stories forward in both plot and sub-plot. He provides the reader with three-dimensional characters and conflicts. You can read the story summary elsewhere. It;s always exciting to see a team fight within itself, heroes battling heroes, but Johns does it here not for a stereotypical misunderstanding but based on philosophical differences that make the reader wonder whether the "wrong" side is really all that wrong. That's good storytelling.The bonus in all this is the cleverly interspersed Alex Ross art and Kingdom Come tie-in. Well not so much of a bonus as it is an integral part of the storyline, but it is handled well and gives fans of Kingdom Come a chance to revisit a favorite time and place, and connects it to the current reality.It's interesting to read the three star reviews from others, and I am left wondering what they would consider a five-star story. If any comic story ever earned a five star-rating, it's this epic.

johns always good on JSA

Este volumen final de "Thy Kingdom Come" solo está "bien." La historia continúa se vuelve un poco mas violenta en esta ultima parte y la obra de arte es desigual a rtos. El dibujo de Dale Eaglesham es excelente (y el arte de Alex Ross es maravilloso), pero el de Fernando Pasarin es torpe y mediocre.Starman es mucho más divertido cuando es esquizofrénico y me canso de la lucha constante y la narración esbelta. Además, los segundos dos volúmenes de esta trilogía tienen mucho más sentido si has leído "Kingdom Come" de Alex Ross recientemente.Si eres un completista, y puedes obtener este volumen de JSA por un precio razonable, entonces hazlo; de lo contrario, salta a "Black Adam and Isis".Le pongo una calificacion baja ya que el comic llego muy maltratado. Las esquinas enteramente dobladas, incluso en paginas interiores.
