The story is amazing but the art is walking a thin line between really good and jarringly awful, making it a real challenge to read through it. Reading of previous issues of JLA, Doom Patrol, and other Young Animal books is required to get the full scope of story. It is enjoyable as is, but understandably very difficult to get into.
