Comic Book Review: ‘Justice League’ #5
Justice League continues to prove itself as the “blockbuster” series of DC Comics ‘New 52′ lineup with the release of its fifth issue. All of the elements to make it a “blockbuster” series are here; loud explosions, fast-paced action and a devastated backdrop for a battle to unfold against. Unfortunately, the latest issue also brings with it some of the lesser qualities that seem to make a blockbuster nowadays; moments of disbelief, semi-cheesed dialogue and a tendency to favor style over substance.
Mind you, for the first couple of issues, this was a solid approach for a series of this magnitude as all of the involved characters were crossing paths for the first time and it was exciting to see these encounters unfold amidst an extraterrestrial threat. But five issues into the series, we start to yearn for something more and feel the need come out in full force by the time we reach the last page.
