Lyles Movie Files - Jeffrey Lyles
Aug 15, 2018Snyder packs a killer cliffhanger this issue — one that could potentially open up a whole new realm of possibilities not just for Justice League, but the DC Universe as a whole. Read Full Review

Major Spoilers - Ingrid Lind-Jahn
Aug 15, 2018I feel like the excitement keeps ramping up in Justice League #6. The message that I am getting from it " to accept your faults, admit your mistakes, apologize, and move on while trying to do better " is a powerful one that befits this group of heroes and is indeed about as heroic as you can get. And it is just beautiful to look at besides. Read Full Review

Comics: The Gathering - Batmanaruto
Aug 15, 2018In conclusion, this issue and the arc so far have been really good. One of the aspects that I really enjoyed is that, at the end the team feels broken. Even though this isn’t the end and the team feels like they have won, there are repercussions, such as Batman’s bones being broken, Barry being affected by the still force and John Stewart becoming an ultra violet lantern. So far, this run is looking to be great. Read Full Review

Aug 15, 2018Seriously, if you're not reading this series at this point, you're doing yourself a disservice. Justice League is indulging us in all our urges and cravings: Conflict, balance, shock, awe, and humor. The only disappointing thing is that each issue has to end. Read Full Review

Aug 15, 2018Justice League #6 is a welcome return of the series' regular creative team. The narration is once again delightful, the conflict"and our heroes' response"is interesting and suspenseful, and I defy you to show me a book that looks better. If you're not reading this series, you should. Read Full Review

Comic Book Corps - Mike Bedard
Aug 15, 2018Snyder has been masterful at creating plenty of organic twists and turns. There really are no weak players. Generally, with issues like this that have over a dozen active characters, there is usually at least one plotline that just isn't engaging as the rest, and I really have to slog through the pages until something more interesting happens. With this storyline, everything is essential. Everyone has an important part to play, and I look forward to every character's upcoming actions. Read Full Review

Dark Knight News - Kevin Gunn
Aug 20, 2018It was nice to break up the action in issue #5, but it's also great for the story to pick back up where it left off. A well-written plot continues to unfold right before our eyes. The artwork is still top-tier. Since this is the fifth installment of this arc, we should see a closing on the horizon. If it is like the rest of this story, we should be in for a treat.

Comicosity - Terrence Sage
Aug 15, 2018Justice League remains at the top of the heap of DC books you need to read with every new issue because Snyder and the Art Team are crafting a title for the ages with an attitude of taking old characters and throwing them into new and unexplored depths with some grand cosmic ramifications in the process. That's life for you. Read Full Review

Bleeding Cool - Joshua Davison
Aug 14, 2018Justice League #6 is another impressive entry in Scott Snyders new take on DCs premiere superhero team. The story begins to turn slowly, and the Legion of Doom is given some moments to remind us why its membership is among DCs greatest villains. Jimenez and Sanchez give the book a damn good treatment, and the book earns a recommendation. Give it a read when it comes out tomorrow. Read Full Review

GWW - Deron Generally
Aug 14, 2018Phil Jimenez does amazing things with the art in this issue and he does an amazing job of making Joker menacing as well as his takeover of Martian Manhunter scary as hell. Visually, everything in this issue looks amazing and the art does a great job at keeping pace with the narrative. Read Full Review

Sequential Planet - Callum Riley
Aug 17, 2018The story suffers from a lack of bombast for the first half of this issue as it's still catching up with the events of the previous 5, but picks up for the end. We see some encouraging development for characters that haven't had much time to shine so far and are going to move to more significant roles later. There is nothing else to say about Jimenez and Sanchez other than they knock it out of the park like they always do. Read Full Review

Aug 15, 2018While we do get more pieces to the puzzle this issue, we're still left wondering what the hell the puzzle is in the first place and what we're supposed to do with these new pieces. With that though, you get some stunning art and some amazing fights in this issue. I'm just getting a little tired at not understanding the story that we're dealing with. Read Full Review

I love how Scott Snyder uses the omniscent narrator. It feels classic but modern at the same time.

The cover for Justice League #6 is a bit of a red herring. It depicts a potential slugfest between Wonder Woman and Aquaman orchestrated by Gorilla Grodd. Even though the cover isn't really a representation of the comic, the issue does manage to be pretty awesome in its own right. Standout characters in the conflict are the Joker and Lex Luthor. They both seem to be operating on another level right now and it's good to see human characters able to cause the JL so much trouble. The Legion of Doom is on the verge of winning as the Justice League desperately try to stop them. Every time that the League appears to be gaining any sort of momentum, they come up short. The issue does a great job of subverting the reader expectations o more

Very solid issue, both storywise and visually. Heroes finally found a way to overcome the monstrous odds of their villains united, and it surely feels earned. The action is far from over, and the cliffhanger definitely leaves you wanting more, thus it's safe to say, the run so far is absolutely worth picking.

Good, but it feels like all issues were the same randoms forces with no development and it's getting repetitive.

This was another good issue. I think the issue does an amazing job of leaving an impression after you read it. Scott Snyder's writing is powerful and epic. I can practically hear the dramatic music in the background of the issue. Although it was verging on being filler, the Joker-esque focus of the issue does (kind of?) pay off at the end and it is effective for the most part. The characterization of the Justice League was good for the most part. Batman sort of reminds me of the Batman from the first story arc of All Star Batman, which is not a good portrayal in my opinion. His jokes and personality don't fit with the characterization of the true Batman in my opinion. Just listen to one of his lines and you will understand my problems with more

"With friends like you, who needs enemies?" The Totality continues. Some of the panels in this issue have good action on them and with Jorge Jimenez's art, it looks just astonishing. Same goes for the way he shows characters. Batman, Grodd look just great. But for me, the stand out is the Joker. He looks creepy, scary and just overall unsettling. The same thing can be said about jokerized Martian Manhunter. As for the rest of the issue, it is not as great. The story gets clearer, even though more new things get introduced, and revelation near the ending promises some interesting developments in the next issue, it still suffers from two things. First, both the story and premise are not engaging. With Metal and New Justice, there was more
