    Justice Society of America #15 was a brilliant issue. Johns continues to impress me with his work on this title. The story that Johns is weaving on the JSA is one of the more intriguing ones in the DCU. Justice Society of America offers the reader a pleasant balance of good dialogue and character work with plenty of action and adventure. If you dig DC continuity then you will adore what Johns is doing on the JSA. Even if you aren't heavy into DC continuity, I think that you will still enjoy this title as Johns does his best to make the story as new reader friendly as possible. Read Full Review

    Not surprisingly, the highlight of the issue has little to do with Gog, Magog or Kingdom Come and arrives with the type of "coming attraction" reel Johns first introduced in the debut issue of this series. The fact that the three previewed stories are far more mouthwatering than the issue's cliffhanger easily demonstrates it's well past time to move on to another story. Read Full Review

    Comics Bulletin - Erik Norris May 22, 2008

    The saving grace to the overall package of Justice Society of America #15 comes in the form of Johns, once again, adding a Coming this year in primer to the end of the issue to wet the appetites of JSofA readers. While not as mind-blowing as the primer at the end of issue #1, we do get some tasty nuggets here. I wont ruin the surprise, but the final image on this page is by far the most intriguing, especially for fans of the previous volume of JSofA and 52. But that is saying something isnt it? The fact that I closed this book with a smile on my face due solely to the end teaser page shows that the contents that preceded it didnt deliver like I hoped they would. I guess the standard for Justice Society of America is a pretty high bar, but that is because I know Geoff Johns can deliver. It just looks like I will be waiting another month for the shipment (hopefully). Read Full Review

    Let down after so much promise at the end of last issue, but still a good issue in its own right. Only problem is it had to follow up on probably the best JSA issue since it relaunched. The one page preview at the end almost makes me want to make this a Must Read. Look for it in the Moments of the Week. Read Full Review
