Justice League Vol. 1: Origin (The New 52)

This is a great team Origin story. Love the art work and the story is big and bold enough to live up to live up to it. This volume contains all six issues of the New 52 Justice League. It also has the cover gallery of big A4 pages and the sketch designs. However these are all extras and would not mean anything if the story did not deliver. This one does. This volume is set 5 year before any of the other New 52 book this is the first time most of the 7 main characters have met each other, or anyone with their power levels that was not a bad guy.The story. Batman is investigation "paranormal demon" type creatures using super advanced teleportation technology. He meets the Green Lantern a powerful young man with a huge chip on his shoulder and also investigating the same tech. Discovering it the tech is alien in origin they think it might be connected to the most famous and powerful alien on the planet Superman, after the usual brawl to be the alpha (and other getting involved) they discover the techs are the key to an alien invasion now with the planet at stake they must shelve their egos and work together. Everyone brings something to the table.A pretty simple idea that is done excellently. This comics is full of big action scenes. Lot of explosions, and displays of power, with Jim Lee's big panel artwork to showcase this all. I love the new character design of the New 52 heroes and villains. All in all an awesome action packed comic.

This is my favourite book of all the New 52 volumes I've read so far. Perhaps I've been starstruck by all the big names hanging out together but it just seems so awesome. They're all there, all adding their own unique abilities and personalities to each situation. The stories hang and develop on each of these guys' particular whims.The writing for this is great, I've never felt that there was a singular voice pushing the plot forward. When Batman speaks it's Batman, it's calculating and cold. When Superman speaks you've got a sense of authority and purpose. Where Wonderwoman puts in her opinion its strong-willed and head strong. When Green Lantern speaks he does so only to ridicule Batman, no seriously he's cool and very much a hero but he's a great source of humour and levity and he plays that off with the Flash also.The story starts strong as well. If this were a computer game I'd say they drop in the Final Boss in the first level. It sets up a lot of what is to come and it's really strong. The only issue is perhaps they resolve this first volume evil a tad too quickly but I'm sure it's just a teaser of what's to come.

I've not read any Justice League before, and being relatively new to comics I want that acquainted with all the characters, however this didn't matter a jot. This book was thoroughly setup each of the team without having to have an origin for each of them, you get the feel for each of them. There's is an origin for Cyborg and I was glad of this as it was something I didn't already know his story and it was done really well. The story was pretty much your normal blockbuster superhero team up story, not that this is a negative, as a newbie it was a great way in and it lays ground for bigger arcs in the future. The art was top notch looked really cool, and i enjoyed the each hero's newish suit design. All in all a fun romp that sets up this dream team ready for deeper more intricate adventures.

This is an excellent graphic novel. If you are just getting into comics then this would be an ideal starting point. It's a good origin story and a nice introduction to the DC universe (The 52). The story is good enough to sustain the reader throughout and our heroes get a decent villain to play with. In addition the art work is brilliant, colourful and lavishly laid out. The volume also has some cool double spreads! You can not go wrong with this and for all the super heroes involved I would say it is a must read and well worth a purchase!

I choosed this rating because this comic book is awesome for many reasons:1st,the art is gorgeous,jim lee's art is fantastic,2nd the characters were really good except for green lantern who was a jerk and aquaman,his presense didn't amaze me,and 3rd for the price.It's a satisfying price for the average comic book reader like me.I didn't like that they didn't include shazam because he was so cool in the movie(justice league war).Instead,they included aquaman.I would recommend this book to anyone who wants to get started into the new 52 series of DC Comics,especially for the justice league!

Exceptional. I never liked the Justice League before, but I enjoyed this book.*** spoilers ***Essentially the group run into each other at the start, fight it out, become a team and then Darkseid invites. After a fight with Darkseid, they beat him and send him back to his world. The origin of Cyborg was covered also.*** end spoilers ***A very short and simple plot line. Nothing complicated here. However, whilst a simple story I'd describe the story as fun. It was a fun book of the Justice League coming together. I would recommend immensely.

Ele é lindo e eu peguei por um preço maravilhoso, bem mais barato que qualquer coisa da Panini. Ainda não comecei a ler mas a qualidade é ótima, agora recomendo ler sentado ou com algum apoio pois é muito pesado, mas muito mesmo.

Este tomo 1/2 es el primero del compilado de JL del New52 que comenzó en el 2011. Excelente Historia y arte desde la primera hoja hasta el final. Cada numero tiene importancia ya que todo es una gran historia que concluye y dará inicio a Rebirth. Muy recomendado.

If you are intrested in a good jumping on point to read Justice League this is the book for you. Well written and Nice art. Book arrived in excellent condition

Per i nuovi e vecchi lettori è un book da avere. Una rinascita da zero delle avventure della Justice League, che si incontrano e uniscono per la prima volta in assoluto per fronteggiare una nuova/vecchia minaccia. Geoff Johns ha riscritto il mondo DC da zero, rispettando il passato, e l'ha reso interessante e leggibile anche per i nuovi lettori. Jim Lee poi è una garanzia di disegni di qualità per storie di questo tipo.
