    Simply put Kevin Maguire has really shown how invaluable he is to the Blue and Gold JLA with his work on these miniseries. Truth be told, before these miniseries came along, I had given the lion's share of the credit over to the writing. However, the art is largely responsible for the biggest laughs in this issue, as how can one not love the expression on Power Girl's face when Guy enters the scene, or the sheer visual hilarity of the eight panels where Blue Beetle questions Booster about how they managed to end up in the lowest level of Hell?

It was perfectly reasonable that the Blue Beetle who bounced around the rooftops and fought crime also was the same Blue Beetle stuck in Bialya awaiting rescue from Batman disguised as Maxwell Lord. This newest run is no different. Ironically, it's the so-called heroes from The Big Stupid Event that you cannot take seriously. Read Full Review
