I know I’m missing out and I will go back and read JLD when there have been several installments to binge but so far my ‘brain damage’ from the lead story has made me so disappointed I’ve just put it down as quickly as I could. Looking forward to reading all the 10-page JLD backups at once.

You Don't Read Comics - David Harth
Nov 17, 2021Justice League #69 is yet another entertaining issue of this book. While the main story has a few problems, it's still overall entertaining and different from other Justice League stories. The backup is worth the price of admission alone. This is such a good book, and that's all there is to it. Read Full Review

Dec 12, 2021The main story in Justice League #69 was an improvement, but still a bit of a mess, but the art was good. So, I'll give it a 3 out of 5. And the Justice League Dark backup story was a solid 5 out of 5 for both the story and art. I still think that Bendis puts his mind to it, he could get this title back on track. But will he?

Nov 16, 2021The Phil Hester art is good, but the plot doesn't advance too much and the cliffhanger comes out of nowhere. Read Full Review

Nov 17, 2021Phil Hester makes a return to Green Arrow alongside colorist Hi-Fi and inker Eric Gapstur, and while there are sequences that shine, others just don't quite click as well, especially when they involve Superman. Read Full Review

Nov 16, 2021For anyone who's still picking up the Justice League book, I can at least tell you that you'll get an interesting cliffhanger to the JLD backup...... beyond that you'll probably have a tough time figuring out something to like about this book... I know I certainly did. The art is rough, the stories don't do much... but damn, what a JLD cliffhanger. Read Full Review

Batman-News - Nicholas Finch
Nov 17, 2021A higher price point with a lower quality of storytelling and a backup that should very well be its own comic? It's not a combination I like, but it's bread and butter forJustice League. Unless something changes, that's the way it's gonna be for the forseeable future, too.I hate to say it" but, unfortunately, this book is most decidedly not nice. Read Full Review

Nov 16, 2021DC needs to move on from Bendis with its flagship titles. Its no sense at this point to hope he can turn this run around and itd be better for everyone to just get a new writer Chip Zdarsky? to right this continually sinking ship. Read Full Review
