The post-Shattered Grid storyline was doing pretty good and the finale had me curious and excited but unfortunatelly not only does "Necessary evil" fails to live up to its name but all the various plotlines had a lackluster and unsatisfactory conclusion

Avoiding spoilers Im just going to simply mention my issues with the story:
1) the battle of the MMPR vs Dayne was resolved in a very dumb way and a villain that was shown to be a formidable foe was easily dispatched
2) the battle of the Omega Rangers vs the Anointed ended very quicly thanks to the help of the Solar Rangers (nice way to spoil your own story with the cover BOOM) which seems like lazy wrting to me since it would have been much better if they appeared AFTER the fight just to lend a hand with the finnishing touches instead of arriving mid battle and practically ending the fight when it was at its most desperate/thrilling point
3) If the problem with the Morphin Grid giving power to random people was as easy to resolve as simply bringing the Solar Rangers (which I really dont like or care much about since they were introduced in a mediocre story), why didnt the Emissary do that from the beginnig? I see no purpose in creating the Omega Rangers and makes even less sense when he was only going to recruir Jason
4) Now that their mission is done what are the Omega Rangers going to do? staying at Safeheaven and taking care of the poeple seems very trivial and once again lazy writing. I hope we keep seeing them in the enxt story
5) The reveal at the last page of the mysterious character who would appear was very exagerated by BOOM, I think everybody knew who was it going to be and besides, it didnt do a great job of making me excited fo whats next. Hope the FCBD issue and the new series does a better job
6) I thought the title implied there was going to be some philosophical analysis for why evil is necessary to exist but we got nothing of that. I thought they had great opportunities to delve into this in both GGPW and MMPR issues where the rangers sometimes pondered about their futures once they´re no longer rangers thanks to there being no evil guys around or maybe at the final battle they could´ve considered themselves the bad guys...but nothing but wasted potential more

Meh. After 25 issues it doesnt feel like much has changed

Batman vs Reverse Flash...and he gets his ass kicked

Excellent heartwarming story between Batdad and Batson where you see both have so much to tell each other and unfortunatelly cant

The first part of the story was an excellent crime investigation story, the second was a good story were our heroes got glimpses of their stolen time and friendships Wally warned Barry about

A conclusion that doesnt gives answers and feels a little hollow; not really what one expeteced of this mini event but understandable if it is considered the continuation of the DC Universe Rebirth #1 and the 2nd chapter of the 2 year long DC vs Watchmen story. Could the objective of this travel may be to further weaken the DC heroes making Batman doubt about keep being Batman?

The extremists are taken down 1 by 1 but who will take on Havok? (its not Batman). Maybe the final issue doesn't have a big fight or a lot of teamwork snce most of the fights were 1 on 1 but by the end the JLA accomplished exactly what they needed and Batman and Vixen know the team is in the right path. The epilogue that takes place in the Extremist's past and old world hints to some interesting things more

The JLA has the mission to help revolutionaries overthrow a legally elected villain in order to avoid international consequences...that is tough. I like that the way the JLA decides to act is exactly what Batman wanted this team to be; by joining the revolution it meant the people were the ones acting and not just waiting for some superheroes to save them and the JLA was there simply to level the playing field instead of fixing everything more

The story is still very good, when last issue pointed toward a big battle,the plot takes a turn as our heroes try to dialogue with the Extremists which was going good until one of the Extremists didnt like where everything was going and now the JLA has a very different battle to fight. Art is very different from the 1st issue but it's still good and by the end you get used to it

Very good first issue that shows the team start with small tasks before taking on their first real test

No surprise that Hitch brings another boring story that is unnecessarily complicated. This time Flash tries to repeatedly stop a guy from detonating some kind of bomb but each time he does it, he ends up farther into the past and the guy just appears again saying the same and doing the same. Be smart and save your money as this wont end better than previous stories

Another lame and confusing plot that is resolved easily; villain keeps talking about something bad is coming, to stop it she decides to kill every superhuman that ever existed or will exist on Earth, she is stopped when her self acclaimed unstoppable plan is foiled by the JL easily destroying the timeless machines and she ends running out of power..now who will stop that things that is coming of which we heard so much but care so little? more

It happened just what I thought it would, the great fights we were teased last issue were totally ignored and were all resolved when Batman rescued Superman and deactivated the timeless robots and now the woman who "helped" the JL is the new villain. If I know what is going to happen you are not writing anything good, please DC get a new writer

Ra's and Luthor interactions and dialogue were perfect and Circe I guess it too (I've never read anythong about her) which is good because these inteactions carry the issue as the story doesnt fell it will be that good as apparently there is an ancient hidden power in these temple that has a hieroglyph showing these 3 characters ruling the world, but in order to get it they will have to prove themselves more

This issue was all setup for apparent next issue big battle and I hope the Alexis Luthor revelation at the end brings something interesting because once again, the issue was all talk (in a vague sense as always and trying not to tell anything)

Sciver better have a good plan for the separated rings and some great moments coming for Kyle or I'll hate him for making him just another GL again

Its all talk and no action in this boring and quick to read issue, but all this exposition is a waste of time because in classic Hitch fashion none of the characters know anything about whats going on and the few that know something say nothing. Its getting clear that for you to understand a little better all this crap you must have read Hitch's previous JLA series. The only thing I like are the various scenarios our heroes are trapped but unfortunately they have very little or no screen time at all more

What happens in this issue doesn't seem important right now and looks to have the only purpose to introduce Amy and make you dislike her, but don't fool yourselves, this will have bigger ramifications down the road as this is only the first part of a bigger story you wont start to understand until the real plot develops a little more

The detective club is back in business but it appears there is a shortage of mysteries to investigate,but later as Kyle finds out there are some students missing and Maps has a strange encounter with the newly assembled witch club, Kyle and Maps look to have a new case in their hands

This was a great 2 issue story that didn't just had a cool mystery to resolve, it also brings some changes to a member of the detective club and brings other characters like Katherine and Eric more into the spotlight. The story also brings back the mysterious symbols the team has being investigating since the last series and looks like future issues will revolve around their enigma and the map Colton found more

This one-shot takes says it takes place before Second Semester and brings a suspicious circus to campus and as headmaster Hammers orders it to leave, Olive seems to be delighted by a young boy promoting the circus to the students; all this makes the rest of the team want to find the truth behind this circus only to end up fighting some supernatural creatures. The story is solid but the art and colors are spectacular more

The big story that started in issue #1 and even before starts to takes shape and while the trial begins Pomeline brings her mother to help but at the same time decides to go on a last minute hunt for the mysterious and powerful book with Tristan, leaving Colton hurt and putting his future in jeopardy. The plot is getting very interesting with Pomeline teasing us about this book that is very important and it may very well be since it seems to have been well hidden for a reason and also because she is not the only one interested in getting it as we've seen at least Eric and Mr Scarlet being after it as well (maybe Batman too?).

Then there's also Amy, by now it is obvious there is something strange about her and Im intrigued to know what's up with her more

While the trial is in recess Colton has escaped and with Pomeline in possession of a key evidence to help him the team splits again with Kyle going for Colton while Olive, Amy and Maps go to the mansion to look for Pomeline

What we have here (and last issue too) is a brilliantly written detective book, we have our heroes finding clues without feeling forced by the plot and revisiting old events and locations while using new knowledge or items they didn't have the last time, just because of that this was a terrific issue, but then you add the awesome character moments: Amy shows why she is still a horrible friend, Maps reminds us why she is so awesome and Kyle has a great scene with Colton. Now it seems the team got themselves an enemy too...uff more

A little ore interesting than any previous story but the plot just sounds ridiculous: a religious group from the future wants to erase all super powered people from history and existence so they set some kind of bombs through different time periods where superheroes appeared, still it seems that for this very important existence-threatening mission the alien girl who is the guardian of the timeline or something like that only recruited present time JL, and send each hero (except for Batman and Superman who were somewhere else at the time) to an unknown place and time to fight an army of unbeatable robot/creatures and stop a super bomb; meanwhile Batman and Superman along with the Infinity Corporation (I dont who they are or what they do) investigate a time disturbance and are also transported to an unknown place and time more

Satisfying and enjoyable ending but with so many inconsistencies concerning the dreamworld and Mercy's character to be a good story

The story follows Frost thru some very tortuous last days at Belle Reve thanks to Waller wanting her to crack under pressure to retain her; it is an ok story as it doesn't have much juice to it and it only reiterates what we learned from JLvsSS event where Frost said she wants to be one of the good guys; however, the ending when Batman finally shows up to welcome Caitlin to the free world shows some flashbacks to these lasts days that can be interpreted either in a good or bad way concerning Frost's efforts to be a good guy which all will make for some interesting issues in JLA more

The issue takes place before the events of the DC Rebirth one-shot and ends with what we saw on said issue; it tells us the story of misfit college student Ryan Choi and how he became the Atom's sidekick. Orlando did an extraordinary job with both characters and cant wait to see them on JLA

A very fun scooby doo type story whit a surprising ending

The whole issue was plot explanation and it was confusing. Ivy explains that because of her connection to the Green, she can somewhat use the Black Mercy's abilities to consciously enter the dream world where she found, unknowingly to her, Mongul's unconscious manifestation of a daughter named White Mercy who tricked Ivy into showing her how this world worked so Mongul could, I guess, take control of Superman's body while his mind is trapped in the dream world because coincidentally Ivy, who really cared for her "adoptive daughter" and unknowingly again to her, put Superman to sleep to use his solar energy to try to get her to the real world
At least Manapul's art is outstanding more

What a boring issue where our heroes spent all their time whining and blaming each other in what must be the worst team support session ever. Hitch continues to not giving us any reason to buy this book
