Hey comic lovers...the long awaited moment has finally arrived after almost twenty years waiting, DC and Marvel have finally put aside their petty differences and have achieved that, which we never thought would be...I am of course referring to "JLA / AVENGERS" the long awaited dream project involving the comics world two premiere super teams; The AVENGERS (marvel) and the JUSTICE LEAGUE of AMERICA (DC).
Fantastically written by Kurt Busiek(Astro City) and brilliantly illustrated by George Perez(Avengers,Wonder Woman,Teen Titans) this four part mini series is a cosmic tale of one mans' search for the truth, ultimate knowledge and his willingness to destroy all ;even the universe to possess it! Unfortunately, our heroes are caught up in the middle of it all when this destructive force, who goes by the name of Krona, sets his sights on little old planet Earth. With a little help from the Grandmaster who has as always, some alterior motive in mind.
Issue Two just hit the stores this past week. Each page is a work of art, and the story is amazing in it's scope and cosmic ramifications-I'm not going to spoil the fun by telling you the whole plot, but I will strongly suggest that you pick it up and read it...it's a treasure to the eye and mind both. If you enjoyed "Crisis of Infinite Earths", you'll love this one. Purchase "JLA / AVENGERS" and witness a legendary comic artist's greatest work- "Great job George & Kurt!" |
