With the fate of the Ghost Sector and the trillions of lives it contains at stake, Darkseid begins the cosmic process to activate Sepulkore and restore himself to his previous immeasurable power. Can the Justice League crew stop him...or-unthinkably-must they actually help him?
This cosmic odyssey continues to grow in excitement and depth following the jaw-dropping conclusion to this chapter. Dan Abnett and Will Conrad deliver absolute magic to the pages together once again. Fans new and old can find affinity with any of these characters as they come into their own and grow together as a team. Read Full Review
JLO is definitely improving as Abnett has settled in nicely as the new writer and coming up with scenarios that don't make the team feel so disconnected from the larger DCU. Add in a well-timed Year of the Villain tie-in and this felt like a major turning point for the title. Hopefully that momentum keeps rolling. Read Full Review
Justice League Odyssey #11 is an excellent exploration of identity bolstered by Will Conrad's artwork with Ivan Plascencia & Pete Pantazis' colors. Read Full Review
So from being about to give up on this book entirely, I find myself once again fully engaged, and eager to see what will happen next. And geez, the book hasnt even been around one full year yet. Thats quite the ride! Read Full Review
Justice League Odyssey #11 takes us to that stage in the plot where it is more important than ever that the JLO team tries to take control of this situation they have been thrown into. They have been playing Darkseid's game, but now was the time for them to show that they aren't just the pawns. Of course, easier said than done, though it wouldn't be exciting if you had it any other way. I look forward to seeing how this little bump in the road continues to challenge this team.

Justice League Odyssey #11 sets us up for some internal conflict that the heroes will have to overcome if they're gonna be able to stop Darkseid from enacting his plan. Read Full Review
Will Conrad's art is great. With the exception of the final few pages, there isn't a lot of action in this issue. That allows Conrad to explore the characters and how they look utilizing amazing detail throughout. Read Full Review
Justice League Odyssey #11 continues to add new an exciting elements to the mythos of DC Cosmic while weaving a unique and unpredictable narrative. Read Full Review
It's certainly a high-stakes story, but the problem is that the first half of the issue is devoted to little more than Darkseid monologuing about exactly how this power works. Read Full Review
I think the lesson here is to just let Dan Abnett do his sci-fi thing and not worry about having every book tie into your company's crossover event. Read Full Review
My like of the team and the story continues to be frustrated by the poor planning of it all, and the inconsistency of Darkseid's hold on Starfire and Azrael is pissing me off. I thought we turned a corner in the space adventure that was the last issue but I was wrong. Oh, the art is awesome, by the way. Read Full Review
In case you forgot, Justice League Odyssey is still a thing. Read Full Review
Oh my goodness! Abnett has really been building it all up for this very moment. This comic is exhilarating, I literally felt like I couldn't breath while I was reading it. I feel sorry for Jessica, she's really in trouble now.
There's a lot of scientific terms that are used here, it was really cool even though I couldn't fully comprehend or get a simple meaning of it. Sepulkore is solid, the way it needs more than 50 Apokoliptian relics to jump start it to avoid the forthcoming multiversal threat and to sustain life within, the whole idea behind Darkseid's plan is brilliant.
Opening the comic with Lex looking for Darkseid was really interesting, 'Darkseid is always a damn variable', nice Lexy! While Darkseid have a loo more
I'm really surprised with this series... it's just getting better and better!
Ping.
So... is Cyborg officially a New God now? Because that is kind of awesome.
The problem with this series is, that it’s way too slow. Whenever I’m reading it, Im thinking come on you’ve pointed that out many times ago. The JL expressed their doubts so often I can’t hear it anymore.
At least we are seeing more of Darkseid in this issue& he’s basically just talking. It was nice to read Cyborgs comments about Darkseid being above humans& having unimaginable intelligence. Sure that’s true, but I wish DC actually would portray Darkseid like that. He is portrayed as an idiot since New52 started, but JL Odyssey at least does him more justice than King, Castellucci or Johns. I also doubt Luthor could offer Darkseid anything of interest for him as it was suggested at the beginning of this issue.
Overal more
Holy cow, that was one unnecessarily dense book. I get Abnett's desire to illustrate Cyborg's transformation into a machine "New God," but surely there was a simpler way to get there than to have Cyborg and Darkseid discussing imaginary math and science for pages.
The issue did have perhaps the best Year of the Villain "offer" -- the first couple pages basically getting the YotV stuff out of the way with no offer...just some regret.
I suppose Cyborg's transformation represents character development. I would have liked to see him remain grounded in a family-driven reality -- that's been a strong aspect of his character -- but DC decided to go in a different direction.
The other three characters were somewha more
It got seven pages in and there was a title page and genuinely there was this hopeful moment where I was like “oh my god, is that the end? Did I make it to the end?” Nope. Page seven.
Boring.
