Huntress's journey to save the Justice Society of America lands her smack dab in the middle of the 1940s at the birth of the team! Can Huntress and the present-day JSA work together long enough to figure out how to stop the strike on the '40s team?!
Justice Society of America #3 shows us who Degaton is and what his motives are. It showcases excellence and master talents when it comes to embracing the past while enjoying what is the future. I can not wait to see what twists this story has for us, even as the pain is imminent with a title for the next issue being "The Death of The JSA". I am down for the ride and will see you next time!

Overall. A fun issue with a brilliant cliffhanger ending that will keep everyone guessing until next month. Read Full Review
JSA is capturing all the feelings of an important and essential title as the Dawn of DC gets underway. Read Full Review
Justice Society of America #3 is another fantastic chapter in "The New Golden Age. The execution is great, and the nostalgia is still strong. The character and world building makes this an engaging series as the JSA and Huntress come together to stop longtime foe, Degaton. Like most great stories, it's a journey. If the DC Universe is going to continue to grow it will be because series like this expand beyond the real of the Bat-Family, and this is a great place to start. Read Full Review
This is the best Per Degaton has been used as a villain in a long time, and this series is definitely worth the longer waits. Read Full Review
Sure, I get it. This sounds like the issue is bad. However, its far from terrible. Johns is an outstanding storyteller and is merely fortifying his narrative to give the characters tangibility and depth. Its a very important element of any story. Nonetheless, my desire was to at least gain some type of reveal or wow moment to continue to hook me for the next installment. Readers, Justice Society of America #3 is still a well-written issue complimented masterfully by Mikel Jann and Jerry Ordway making the story easy on the eyes. However, dont enter this story expecting huge reveals or mind-blowingly clever plot threads that will cause you to think like a Johns comic has been prone to do in the past. Read Full Review
There have been quite a few different attempts to give the Huntress the kind of spotlight shes deserved. Shes by no means the title character of this particular series, but Johns and company seem to have found a vehicle for her that gives her the right balance between heroism and vulnerability to make her FEEL like a title character in her own book. Given the right momentum, this particular incarnation of the Justice Society is making a strong case for a deeper focus on the Huntress. Read Full Review
The action comes to the modern day as Huntress meets the JSA, and things look like they'll move forward until the villain arrives. Geoff Johns, Mikel Janin, Jerry Ordway, and Jordie Bellaire bring the goods from the past and the present to keep the excitement high and build for a showdown. Read Full Review
The individual scenes are fun to read, with a lot of mileage in characters interacting and dealing with the strange happenings of the plot. But the overall story has yet to pull me in. Read Full Review
If nothing else, there's finally fun to be found in Justice Society of America's tour through DC Comics' history, and that's certainly an improvement. Read Full Review
Justice Society of America #3 makes it difficult to keep reading this title because there appears to be little plot or direction to ground the story. There's an intriguing mystery at the heart of the series, but excessive time jumps, random scene transitions, and a general lack of focus keep the mystery buried under a lot of noise.

I really hope things can turn around soon. I was actually excited to see the JSA return and interact with the new DC universe in new and exciting ways, but it looks like Johns is gonna Johns, at least for a little bit. Still holding out hope, though! Read Full Review
This was so cool, I just hope the rest of the issues are on time.
Still enjoy the book, getting more into the JSA portion of things so that will probably make a lot of people happy.
Overall better issue than jumping all over the place. A sense of urgency and plot has now worked its way in. Lots of exposition but it is well written so it has a nice pace and feel. Overall very good issue.
I've simply got no reason to be invested in what's happening here.
Not bad, but the other issues are better
2026? That is when some people are estimating when Geoff Johns will have the JSA mini-series complete. It is sarcasm (I hope), but the point is we are seeing mini-chapters in each issue. We are reading pieces of an outline and paying $4 for small pieces. So Geoff Johns is given the top prize in all of DC Comics history - the JSA, and Johns is basically rummaging around, coming up with ideas.
It reminds me of the digital weekly "chapters" experiment DC tried a while back on some stories (that were not selling). A lot of time-jumps, there still is no cohesion to the plot other than the big bad of Degaton (I am starting to get DC vs Vampires tone feel). I am almost at the point to stop on this, and come back in 6 months or so, when more
Augh yeah Detective Chimp over Hawkman.
