Introducing…the United! This all-new all-star group of alien warriors represents all voices in the newly formed United Planets. A galactic Justice League, if you will. The first Legion of Super-Heroes? Sort of. The United comes to the new Justice League for help because the biggest threat to the universe is on the loose, and all roads lead to…Superman. All this, and Aquaman has some surprising news. This big, bold, universe-spanning story serves as a perfect hopping-on point for fans curious where their favorite DC heroes go next!
Plus: While the Justice League Dark regroups after hitting the books (literally), all eyes turn toward more
Doctor Fate Vol. 2: Prisoners of War for Khalid NassourDay of Vengeance for Ragman and several members of Justice League Dark (or Shadow Pact)Ragman (2017-2018)The Demon by Jack KirbyJustice League #64 is a good starting point for anyone looking to get into the book. It's got something for everyone. I especially liked the Cover B by Jason Howard (@theJasonHoward) with our warriors -- Hawkgirl, Aquaman and Hippolyta -- looking mighty. Batman's involvement in Justice League Dark was a really nice restart to the ongoing Merlin story. I could have read an entire issue devoted to Justice League Dark. Read Full Review
Justice League #64 is yet another example of why the Justice League is so good right now. Bendis does a great job with this issue, presenting a new threat and building in some hooks to keep readers coming back. Pughs art is pretty great throughout and really helps the script shine. The JLD backup, as usual, is the icing on the cake. V is proving to be a master of the magical side of the DC Universe, and bringing Batman in is an inspired idea, even if hell only be around for a little bit. Kumars art hits all the right spots. Justice League is the best team book on the market. Read Full Review
The the crossover.This is Daemon Rose. We last saw him training his scope on Lois at the end of Checkmate #1. Here he namedrops Checkmate.So what does it all mean? I am eager to find out. Read Full Review
In Justice League #64, the Ram V's backup story steals the show. At this point, I think DC might be better off moving Justice League Dark to the main story and Bendis' "Continuing Adventures of Naomi Guest-Starring the Justice League" to the shorter backup slot. I'd definitely give Ram V's story a 5/5 on its own, but Bendis' story is only mediocre this time around. Read Full Review

Pugh does a great job with the art in the Justice League story. The visuals are vibrant and lively. Kumar does a brilliant job with the art in the other story and I love the tone and mood set with the imagery. Read Full Review
Justice League #64 is a promising start to a new arc. Bendiss strengths as a writer are highlighted in this issue, as the character interactions are stunning, and the scale of the stake is exciting. The downside is that the art clutters the page in very brief instances, but Pugh and Filardi work well together, creating alien beings and cities. There just needs to be more clarity and space given between the members of the United Planets; otherwise, they get in each others' way. And the Justice League Dark backup story showed much more energy and excitement than the other chapters preceding it. Read Full Review
It could've been worse, but it could also be a whole lot better. Read Full Review
Both the Justice League and Justice League Dark stories this issue were seriously lacking in my opinion, where Bendis is purposely just elevating his own ideas to the detriment of the League, while Batman took the spotlight during the JLD story, giving our actual team barely any panel play. Thankfully the art was decent throughout the book but I seriously need more out of both the main story and backup to this book because it's Justice League and it deserves better than what we're getting.

This is getting frustrating. I can't keep spending every second week telling you to wait on a story that I genuinely think is really good" but how can I recommend you buy this when I don't think the main comic is worth the time? That might be a question you have to answer for yourselves. As for me, I'm going to keep making a fuss until Justice League Dark goes back to being the solo title it has a right to be. Just make sure to buy it, if and when that happens. Read Full Review
As usual, JLD just gets going in advancing the story before Ram V has to throw in some forced cliffhanger. Were reaching past the point when Justice League Dark needs its own title or at the very least switching which Justice League story gets the main chapter. Read Full Review
Once again I loved both stories. I love the dialogue in the justice league story I think it really brings the characters to life and amplifies the individual personalities. Justice league dark also had great writing and while I thought both stories had great artwork there were some panels in justice league dark that were phenomenal! For instance as soon as the story starts you see batman and it looks amazing the gothic architecture the bats flying around and batman looking awesome. I'd score both stories at 9.5
The main Justice League story is a fine, rather filler-like read. I enjoyed my time with it but when we reached the end I was like 'it's over already?'. Nothing particulairly oustanding or terrible about it either.
The Justice League Dark backup is once again excellent. I like that we're getting a closer look at new character the Eternal Knight and Batman is used sparingly so he doesn't overshadow her. Intersted in seeing were this goes, even if I don't have any idea what that cliffhanger means.
Justice League - 4/10
JLD - 8.5/10
I used to love Bendis books back in the Marvel days, now his writing is unreadable and a shame he's just trying to force all his failed or ignored stories from his disappointing Superman and
Leviathan runs into the Justice League. Solid art and still enjoying the JLA Dark backups fortunately.
Honestly I think is just average. Not so much as average compared to the other books, but average in the sense that there is nothing to particularly like here or to particularly dislike, because mostly nothing is happening. This book is just so non-ambitious with it's writing and it looks like Bendis is perfectly comfortable with that.
Despite that, I appreciate the more down to earth approach he is pulling off with the characterizations and I personally think this is the best part about this comics so far. I enjoy that and this is literally the most interesting, well-executed and probably the most unique thing in this run so far. But still the stories need more meat. From themes to introducing new ideas to both plot and charact more
The only reason why I'm not giving this a one out of 10 is because of Justice League Dark. Brian Michael Bendis works with street level heroes and not godly heroes. Also, its weird how he's turning the Justice League into Avengers.
This is like Josstice League all over again, but at least it isnt cringey. But the art and dialogue is honestly too much.
Fuck you, Bendis, for giving us another Superman arc in disguise. Even the back up was super boring. This comic has nothing for us.
This book introduces new characters
Is it any good
Who care the speculators will buy it
And never read.
Not reading a Bendis book is the best thing you can do
Just more garbage from Bendis. Time for him to move on from DC
