Even without the JSA, I am eager to see where this story is headed, but I am especially eager to see what role the Justice Society plays in the story, and what the story will reveal about the Justice Society's place in the post-Doomsday Clock DCU. The Justice/Doom war is definitely shaping up to be a defining moment in the history of the Justice League. Read Full Review

In the 20 short pages that make up Justice League #30, you will find a continuation of impressive universe-building, stunning artwork, and an ending so mind-bogglingly exciting you'll be counting the minutes until the next issue is released. Read Full Review

If you haven't been reading this series so far, this is a pretty good point to jump in. As I stated, it does a good job of streamlining the conflict of the past 29 issues and clearly stating what the good guys and the bad guys want. So, if you're not a completionist like me, jump right in blind! You won't be confused. Read Full Review

DC easily could have made this a standalone huge mini-series event, but are wisely going the more restrained route in letting this play out in their strongest title. While it's worth checking out what's come before if you've missed it, this is the real start to what everyone's going to be talking about from the main DC universe for the rest of 2019.

It's good vs. evil in an incredibly important chapter of "Year of the Villain" not to be missed. If you love mixing high stakes, sci-fi, and good vs. evil storytelling, read this impactful story. Read Full Review

A great jumping on point for new readers. With Doom War starting now there is no better time to become invested in the series. While this issue has a lot to recap it still sets the stakes for things to come. Read Full Review

This issue delivers one thrill after another as all the plot beats Snyder and Tynion have been setting up for a year plus start to pay off. This is how you pay off an event comic's buildup. Read Full Review

Be prepared for war, because this book is FIRE. Read Full Review

The Justice/Doom War is here and both sides are gathering an army and while Lex has the upper hand as we start, the Justice League are trying to turn the tide.  It involves time travel craziness and that allows Snyder and Company to (re)introduce some awesome guest stars into the book (Universe?) and it all looks great to boot.  I am so ready for my favorite heroes to start winning and I hope this is the start! Read Full Review

As the start to the Justice League/Doom War, I would say that they did more than enough to kickstart what has been issues in the making. There was a good introduction into what has happened up to this point, and they quickly set the tone for what's to come through a more genuine understanding of the stakes. Then they pulled no punches showing once more that these heroes will be facing an uphill battle to turn things around in their favor. Read Full Review

This arc feels huge and I'm very excited to see how it progresses in the coming months. Read Full Review

That said, Justice League #30 isn't always the easiest read to connect with " this is a big blockbuster through and through, and it's one designed to appeal to fans' sense of continuity and a larger shared universe, even if the broader core themes of justice versus doom might feel a little unwieldy upon close examination. Read Full Review

Justice League #30 offers great DC mythology. Read Full Review

Justice League #30 may have a verbally-saggy middle, but the overall impression is quite positive. There's plenty of excitement surrounding that mushy center, and enough visual delights to sustain my eyes across space and time. Perhaps most importantly, there is Jarro, and I would follow that sassy starfish into the bowels of the earth"or any other bowels for that matter. Read Full Review

I would definitely recommend Justice League #30 to any new readers. If Year of the Villain has made you interested in hopping aboard Justice League then Justice League #30 is the perfect issue to do so! This issue is clearly written specifically in mind for new readers. Read Full Review

A very ambitious issue. I appreciated how big this series is and the chances its taking, but this particular issue suffers from flaws in my opinion. Read Full Review

BRAVO! THIS is why I love DC Comics!

Scott Snyder and team continue to amaze me with this book. I look forward to see what the outcome is to the entire run because I believe their will be some ramifications for the entire DC Universe but I'm staying along for the ride.

A few months ago, I was really for Year of the Villain but it began a little slowly. However, the beginning of Justice/Doom War really is a blast. Jimenez still is on another level and it is good to have Kamandi and the JSA back. I hope it will stick the landing.

Some wonky art, especially on Guy Gardner, but high marks for summing up the last year or so of Source Wall/Perpetua mumbo jumbo.

Plus, a dash of Jarro, who I love.

I hope the JSA doesn't interfere with Doomsday Clock, but man Snyder is killing it.

This is only the first issue of the arc. Fucking hell this one will be a big one.

" Perpetua has risen. Doom has won. Justice League is dead. Bow before your new god, ! and face your fate !"

very good start to this event. Jorge Jimenez was greatly missed, and his art is just amazing in this issue. (DC are you listening, please bring back Super Sons in some way with Tomasi and Jimenez again). The story gets off to a fun start too, looks like it borrows from Avengers Endgame ironically with teams going to different periods in time to beat the bad guys. There is a certain spoilerish element that happens at the end that does seem exciting, and if executed correctly, would make this arc very very enjoyable and fun. The only problem that I have with this issue is how Lex is written and his motivations, he seems like a huge lackey and super willing to be a servant to Perpetua, which isn't really in line with his characterization of wanting to be the best, 12th level intellect, etc. Otherwise, I'm excited for this arc! more

One of my favourite issues of the current JL run so far. Can't wait to read the next issue.

Huge fan of Jimenez's art and, yet again, he does not disappoint.

Great start to the Justice/Doom War story line that has been teased since the series' first issue.

The parallel storytelling between both sides was fun to read, with Starman and Luthor being the standouts of the issue.

Ever since Luthor got his powers, the remaining members of the Legion seem kind of useless; with their primary function being Luthor's "errand boys" (yes, Cheetah is a girl).

I would like to point out that the mysterious figure (who disrupts Starman's time portals) bears resemblance to the being J'onn saw at the "End of the Omniverse" during his flash-forward back in issue 1.

I think issue 31 comes out next week, so I'll definitely be whelmed (Doomsday Clock and The Green Lantern come out as well!) more

"It's about time this final war between Justice and Doom began"

I agree, Mr. Luthor, it took long enough but it is finally here.

The intro to the war is a bit wordy but it gets interesting fast and sets the stage for awesome things to come.

And with Jimenez and Sanchez having the art duties I'm sure the journey will be fun and it will look beautiful.

Can’t even time heist right come on.

This was almost certainly written after Endgame came out, so that's something. I don't know, I didn't hate this issue. I just don't particularly care? I agree that this should've happened sooner since that last filler arc was such a spinning wheel. But yeah, I guess it's cool the JSA is back. It didn't really amount to much here, but maybe it will later.
