review:
'Justice League: No Justice' by Scott Snyder and Joshua Williamson with most of the art by Francis Manapul is a follow up story from the recent Dark Nights: Metal event in the DC universe. I liked it better than most of that event.
Because of Batman's actions, the walls between the multiverses are thinning. The person who has a plan to repair this is Brainiac. There are four main titans and four main trees. He forms four teams of heroes, and even villains, who are best to combat each threat. For example, Team Mystery has Martian Manhunter, Superman, Starfire, Starro, and Sinestro. How each of these teams will get along is part of the story. When something happens to Brainiac, the plan goes with him, and the teams are left to figure things out for themselves before things go really wrong.
The four trees and four titans thing was weird, and I'm not sure I really understood what was happening, but it was more coherent that the Metal event. The Lanterns and Supergirl show up, but then seem to just go away without doing anything. Maybe they were doing things in their own books.
The story wasn't bad, but the art is where this graphic novel shines. Francis Manapul is one of my favorites. His art has a clean look that just shines. The characters look great and it's not hard to follow what's happening.
I received a review copy of this graphic novel from DC Entertainment and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
