This is a pretty nice banger of an opening issue. Makes sense, wipes out the Justice League in a logical way, and I honestly laughed out loud at Red Tornado being a jobber again (that being said, he actually did something this time, but the shout out to that was nice).
So Waid, despite being a disliked human, wrote another good opening.
As for the art, Gutierrez art is ok, but a step down from Mora. Mora is like the premier artist at DC so anything is a step down for the most part. It is going to take some getting use to. That being said, it isnt bad, but some facial expressions of some of the heroes like Superman or Green Arrow are kind of funny in the 'wow that was not drawn well' kind of way. more
