Justice League of America had two distinguishing qualities when it first launched early this year. It boasted a strong team dynamic and was bolstered by the always incredible work of Ivan Reis. Sadly, these most recent two issues have shown that there's not much left once you remove those two pieces from the equation. What began as a promising addition to the Rebirth lineup has quickly lost its footing.
It seemed like a good idea to bring Lord Havok and the Extremists into the mix in issue #1. It was basically a chance to pit Batman's new team against the DCU equivalent of Doctor Doom and the Avengers. Unfortunately, Havok is every bit as egotistical as his inspiration, and he has a bad habit of hogging the spotlight. It's quickly gotten to the point where the Justice League feel like minor guest stars in their own book. Havok's rapid rise to power in his new world makes for reasonably compelling reading, but the book just isn't the same without the proper attention being paid to the dysfunctional relationships driving the JLA. Other than a couple isolated sequences, none of our heroes do much to stand out in this chapter.
