For our 150th episode we kick off our second ever superseries by reading Justice League International from 1987. This “cult” classic by keith Giffen, JM DeMatteis, and Kevin Maguire countered the late-80’s trend toward dark and gritty by showing us the heroes behind the masks and their everyday interactions. The result is a perfectly-executed gem of a DC comics sitcom. It’s an incredibly fun read and is the perfect way to kick off this set of five JLI episodes.

Our “DC Let Downs” series concludes with one of the most lauded comics of all time, “Final Crisis” by Grant Morrison. This 7-issue comic is the end play of the incredibly long build-up that spanned multiple DCU-wide events. We talk about all the narrative problems, the character problems, and the WTF problems because, really, none of the good ideas from this comic had any room to shine through a cloud of anti-life haze.

Perhaps one of the largest projects ever undertaken in all of comics, DC’s weekly title “52” came out every Wednesday, without any delays, for an entire year. It wove together storylines from across the publisher’s universe and highlighted the rich world crafted by decades of brilliant creators. We’re going to read all of it. This week, we read volume one and give our first impressions of the characters and mull over how the stories are set up.
