The prelude to DC K.O. turns into a showcase for a forgotten hero's will to fight. Williamson pens a steady lead-in for the crossover. The art hits its' strive when Gold takes center stage. It is a great bridge for where All In has gone and K.O. looks to take events further. Read Full Review

Justice League: The Omega Act Special #1 is like a cosmic relay race with time bombs strapped to the baton. Just when it clicks, something else explodes. It's heady, dense, and reckless fun, with more moving parts than a Kryptonian museum heist. Imperfect but electric, the issue doesn't just save the world; it dares it to keep up.8/10We hope you found this article interesting.

Justice League: The Omega Act Special #1 is an unnecessary comic that joins the rank of pointless preludes like Dark Days: The Forge, Justice League #75, and the entirety of Countdown. Wally gets to shine but a single match isn't enough to light up the dark empty void that is this comic. Read Full Review
I'm a big Joshua Williamson fan, but this issue id not wow me. It was fine and serviceable, but it was a bit confusing for me because Booster Gold was suddenly better, but then I realize this issue took place after the recent Justice League Unlimited and Superman issues, and before DC Ko#1.
After the events of Superman #30 and JLU #11, I'd expect this one-shot to be as spectacular.
It isn't.
Turns out it's just filler for K.O.
Still, it's got the Legion shining throughout (even if they're not 'my' Legion) and that ain't bad.
As said, there's not much story to this but it is well written with characters acting like themselves but I did grow tired of the Trapper repeatedly giving up every other page.
Art is just okay but I realize Dan Mora is only human and can't draw everything.
The issue is a must for Legion completists, but for $7 (non-Legion covers are $6), you won't miss anything if you skip it.
