While this issue’s story felt a bit slow-moving and decompressed, and the art was a little rough in places, it was still an entertaining read with a few nice twists. While I enjoyed Williamson’s super-hero/JLA version of Ollie and family, it’s nice to see a return to the Mike Grell/Denny O’ Neil style of storytelling: more grounded in reality and social injustices, and shrouded in mystery.
