  Major Spoilers - Jimmy

  Aug 27, 2011

  Whether you've ever read the Justice League International or not, if you have a sense of humor then you ought to enjoy this book. Its price tag is a little daunting at $4.99, but you get a full issue of new material as well as the very last issue of the Giffen/DeMatteis/Maguire run on JLI from the 90s, so it works out to be a good deal. I didn't bother reviewing that older issue, since I didn't want to make this review as wordy as DeMatteis' scripts (I say these things with love), but I didn't really think it was the right issue to include in this one-shot; it had a decidedly different tone, given that it deals with the fallout from the huge Breakdowns crossover event. I would've rather seen something lighthearted; including the Injustice League / JLEurope goes to French night classes would've fit quite well. Considering all those factors, I give this one-shot a 4 out of 5 stars-I am very grateful that we got another JLI story, and really enjoyed this issue. Read Full Review
