What's the problem with James Gunn? Have I missed something? All 3 GotG movies are amongst the best super hero movies there are. Just good fun movies with heart. This - "You look like Mary Poppins!" "Is he cool?!" I'm Mary Poppins y'all! If you have a problem with Gunn after that beautiful slice of comedy, I have but one question for you...who hurt you? Also the Snyderverse is dead. Please tell me that isn't why you hate him.

You Don't Read Comics - Russ Bickerstaff
Oct 22, 2025It's pretty rare when something that's written this good looks at this good in a way that feels as well modulated as this. All too often in DC or Marvel try a major mega crossover event and it just feels like there's a whole lot of people standing around and posing. The creative team for this particular series has done a really good job of taking a deep dive, look at a certain characters which illuminate the overall action going on in the larger, mega crossover event. Quite an accomplishment in its own right. It's just a very, very enjoyable opening for the new story. Read Full Review

Lyles Movie Files - Jeffrey Lyles
Oct 23, 2025This adventure has the potential to be an engaging mix of characters that in Waid's hands could very easily make for a fun JLU spin-0ff if this first taste is any indication. Read Full Review

Comic Book Revolution - Kevin Lainez
Oct 26, 2025Justice League Unlimited #12 is an excellent example of how a tie-in can elevate the story of a big event. While DC K.O. #1 was largely focused on getting over the big ideas of the event Justice League Unlimited #12 immediately focuses on the ground level impact. Read Full Review

KPB Comics - Phillip Creary
Oct 22, 2025Justice League Unlimited #12 is a great read that's bursting with fantastic character ideas and stellar artwork, but it suffers from a pacing issue that makes it feel like pure setup. Get ready for an epic mission to hell and back, but maybe pack a snack, because we're only just getting to the boom tube now. Read Full Review

Another great K.O. crossover from Waid (though his Flash K.O. crossover this month is even better!). Nice setup this issue for what's to come. Loving the time-lost heroes appearing in the book, as they bring a lot of emotion and nostalgia to an already-wonderful story. The Mora art is gorgeous as always!

Waid's been putting out some great stuff with his return to DC but his events have all been a mess with each one having so many lingering effects that just convolute things so much it takes away from any intrigue or suspense from the next event. The concept of following a bunch of temporary heroes isn't doing it for me even though he's trying to add some depth to how they feel, it mostly fell flat.

5.0
Justice League Unlimited #12 is another one of these DCKO tie-ins that did zero for me. This whole concept of evacuating the planet Earth is preposterous and this comic just kept beating that drum. It's written as if the Justice League are Gods overlooking the human race and the humans are just mindless lemmings following the will of the "heroes". The major plot of the over powered super villains is quickly explained on one page and then on the next page, there is another silly concept featuring alternate/earlier versions of key League members. There is very little to latch on to or care about in this book. If this KO event was supposed to pull me into these DC titles ... it's failing miserably.
