    Lyles Movie Files - Jeffrey Lyles Jun 5, 2019

    With City of Bane, Event Leviathan and Year of the Villain, DC has a trio of very intriguing and exciting summer events in the works. It'll be interesting to see which one emerges as the highlight of the summer and how the various events will connect. If nothing else, YOTV looks like it's going to be a very fun storyline to see play out. Read Full Review

    Beyond The Panel - Jideobi Odunze Jun 5, 2019

    Justice League #25 is so far the best issue to some out of this run so far. If you aren't reading Justice League? Shame on you. This is a team book at it's finest. This issue was the full package between genuine character moments, standout action sequences, plot progression, and exciting artwork. Let's not forget the insane way that they have suddenly made the end of the multiverse seem like it's not the worst possible end when the world has been taken by the villains. Read Full Review

    Comic Book Corps - Kelly OneShot Jun 5, 2019

    Ultimately I'd have to say this is easily one of the best single issues that have been released all year and it's easily already one of my personal favorite Superman stories as Clark really took the spotlight here and his never losing hope spirit made me really believe in the boy in blue and red and gave me hope as well. I would go out of my way to make sure people check out this issue and pick up this entire arc because it's an instant classic. Read Full Review

    DC Comics News - Derek McNeil Jun 7, 2019

    Justice League #25 concludes the Sixth Dimension storyline, and now we finally get to the main event that DC has been teasing for a while now. As we start into this epic crossover event, we will find if Snyder and Tynion's high-stakes gamble will ultimately pay off or fizzle out. I'm betting on the former. Read Full Review

    Comic Crusaders - Shawn Warner Jun 7, 2019

    Overall this book is even greater than the sum of its brilliant parts. Each of the individual elements does exactly what its supposed to do, Snyder and Jimenez continue to elevate their collaborative efforts creating an intensely satisfying and utterly entertaining conclusion to one of their most impressive Justice League arcs. Tynion and Fernandez provide a perfect preface to the upcoming Year of the Villain event while closing out the issue quite nicely. This issue is as close to perfect as it gets and pays off on Snyder's precisely crafted arc in spades. Read Full Review

    You Don't Read Comics - Rick Lopez Jun 6, 2019

    With every new issue, this series grows even more grandiose and more blockbuster, adding the much-needed spectacle this title has been known for previously. With two series-defining tales for readers to clamor over, this title kicks off DCs summer event, Year of the Villain, in full effect. Read Full Review

    Geek Dad - Ray Goldfield Jun 5, 2019

    As the first mega-arc of Scott Snyder's Justice League run comes to a close, he once again proves that there's no one who can do cosmic action like him. Nothing about his past work made me think he was a natural for big stories of the multiverse, but he's surprised me in the best way. Read Full Review

    The Batman Universe - Andy Nickelsen Jun 7, 2019

    The Sixth Dimension arc ends in a surprising, yet spectacular way. Snyder and Tynion tie up all the loose ends of this inter-dimensional story while also perfectly setting up Justice: Doom War, and Year of the Villain. Read Full Review

    Weird Science - Jim Werner Jun 5, 2019

    I really enjoyed this issue and while it was a little forced, it steers us into the Year of the Villain and promises a Justice League with a much bigger a more diverse lineup than a lot of people reading this review has ever seen.  I am all for that and just in case you were wondering... Jarro is barely in the issue and still steals the show! Read Full Review

    Dark Knight News - Bryant Lucas Jun 5, 2019

    Justice League #25is a peculiar issue. It is both an ending and a beginning. Readers are given closure only to have it snatched away. While the ending of the “Sixth Dimension” storyline didn't completely stick for me, due to Batman's bizarre behavior, the second part of the issue overshadows its earlier faults. Overall, it's a very good comic. It's obvious that Justice Leaguehas become the spine of DC's line. The book is building to something big. If you aren't reading it, you probably should start soon. Final verdict: buy this one. Read Full Review

    Comic Book Revolution - Rokk Jun 7, 2019

    Justice League #25 is another excellent read. Snyder and Tynion conclude the 6th Dimension story arc and then nicely set the table for Year of the Villain. I am looking forward to Justice League in the oncoming months as this title is certainly going to become a "big event" title. This is a great time to hop aboard Justice League if you still have not given this title a try. Read Full Review

    Justice League #25 may not be what it was sold as, but it is a solid issue of one of the best books on the stands right now. Just be warned that newcomers should skip the first half of the book and this is a great introduction to what has been going on in the DC Universe and what comes next. Read Full Review

    Sequential Planet - Steven Martinez Jun 10, 2019

    Justice League (2018-) #25 concludes the "Sixth Dimension" storyline with some fantastic art and story moments. The Year of the Villain setup in the back half of the issue does its job setting up the event, but has some clunky dialogue in it. Read Full Review
