In the Justice League Dark 2021 Annual, Ram V and Dan Watters provide an important interlude in which several important threads are set up for the upcoming conflict with Merlin and beyond. I look forward to seeing how this story plays out in the upcoming Justice League Dark ongoing title. Read Full Review
JUSTICE LEAGUE DARK 2021 ANNUAL #1 is complex, sophisticated, elaborate, and perplexing" but all in a spectacular way. The thought and attention to in-depth story beats and details are absolutely fantastic. There is no doubt Ram V, Dan Watters, and their crew have done their homework. However, I wish I could say this is the perfect jumping-on point for a new reader. Read Full Review
Regular writer Ram V has done a good job establishing a complex mythology for these characters and their world, but he's delving into some darker Vertigo territory this issue"which is why he brings in Sandman Universe veteran Dan Watters as his co-writer here. Read Full Review
Read this one in about two months, and it'll probably be a better story and rate a higher score. Read Full Review
In this issue, we have our heroes sitting around listening to stories of when our storytellers had a vision or saw something, where they themselves stood around and listened to someone talk about something, and while the end definitely seems nigh with all that was said, the way this Annual was presented came off as boring as hell, not to mention that it takes place ahead of issues that we've been able to read so we're lost right from the get-go. This is a weird Annual that I was looking forward to that just really left me disappointed by the end. Read Full Review
If you've been following Dark since its latest volume's inception, there might be some things here for you to enjoy but this Annual is definitely one that was not made for new arrivals to the series so be forewarned. Read Full Review
Damn I need an ongoing JLD series
Dan Watters should of written Wonder Woman Sphere of the Gods arc.
Oh no, yet another deal with the devil made how exciting the 8th time around.
