Customer Reviews
User popularity level:  out of 5 stars

Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - satified customer
the item was a little bit messed up on the corners but other than that i am satified with my purchase.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent Tale
Unlike Golden Age crossovers which dealt with Earth 1 and 2, this crossover between the two super justice teams does not need any sort of bizarre extra-dimensional rift. They are just getting together for dinner. Batman and Mr. Terrefic have the best conversations and it is a story that shold translate for years to come.
The art is also top-notch. I recommend this book higly.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - WHY WOULDN"T YOU?
This book combines the art of Carlos Pacheco and Jesus Merino (Penciler and Inker respectively) and the writing talents of David Goyer and Geoff Johns. With that said I shouldn't have to write this review...but I will anyway. This story combines the powerhouse legends of the Golden Age with the mightiest superheroes of the Silver Age with a Modern twist. It adds depth to a hero that was lacking alot of personality (Captain Marvel), and shows how to beat the world's best superheroes. If you like the JSA or the JLA BUY THIS BOOK! On top of everything else, this book was originally offered only in hardcover. Now it is in softcover so you have no excuses.

Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Disappointing
When I finished this book, I was disappointed. Do not get me wrong, It is a great book. But it raised my expectations too high. Carlos Pacheco's art is very first class. The villians are powerful. There is a nice twist. I just was looking for more of the Vice League.



Rated by buyers 3 out of 5 stars - Reviving a worthy tradition!
I'll admit that my review of this book is probably colored by the fact that I read the two volumes of "Crisis of Multiple Earths" back-to-back before reading this one. The two "Crisis" volumes collect the justly-classic JLA/JSA crossovers from 1960 to 1970 reminding younger readers about the annual events of the two groups meetings in the Silver Age. All that however, ended in 1985 with Crisis on Infinite Earths. This present volume by Geoff Johns, David Goyer, Carlos Pacheco and Jesus Merino attempts to revive that grand tradition.

The current members of both teams JLA and JSA decide to meet for Thanksgiving, they take down a villain together and end up in another meeting at the JSA Museum. This is where everything goes crazy! Team members started acting all weird... suffice to say, events take on a global-cataclysmic-level and the "still-normal" members of both teams are thrown all over the place (Limbo, Fate's Crossroads Tower, etc.). They then brought in all the "reserve members" like Black Canary, Green Arrow, Firestorm, Zatanna, etc. to save the day. So you can imagine the number of characters artists Carlos Pacheco and Jesus Merino have to draw! And boy did they do a bang-up job with the art. Detailed, yet clear. Clean-lines, realistic renderings of hair, clothing, wrinkles, etc. yet with a Byrne-like sense of cartooning fun. As for the writing, I would say that Goyer and Johns do far better-writing on their monthly JSA title than here. Sure, there are many "cool character-moments" and the threat here is big but nothing like the kind of energy you get from their monthly title. Like another reviewer mention, this story is good but not great. My advice, get it in softcover rather than hardcover. The paper quality in the softcover is very good (unlike the usually very-thin paper used in other DC collections). But GET it, nonetheless. This book marks a return to the great annual tradition of JLA/JSA meetings... and I say it's about time!
