I really enjoyed this issue. There was a good group dynamic and you get a good sense of where the book is going. Not loving Booster's new costume, but whatever. Maybe it'll grow on me.

No chocos...?

[superfangirl1]

I lol at the Justice league unlimited joke of people mistaken booster for green lantern. :)

That is some impressive explosives that can punch a hole through an exterior wall, then set the rest of the building on fire, like that.

Also, security? Anybody? Beuller?

[thanekos]

Nice security, Blackhawks.

"Does the UN know you're here?"
"I've always enjoyed your sense of humor, Booster."

<3

Also, costume change bad, but whatever.

Hah. Third page second to last panel. Looks like Godiva was colored to look like Fire.

Wonder if we'll see the other members of the Great Ten in the future like Thundermind again.

[mistervader]

Booster tush not shiny enough. I am disappoint.

[aaron_bourque]

Ignore them. They're nothing but a bunch of basement dwellers who spend all day whining on the 'net. Not a single open-minded on in the bunch.

Oh ho ho ho, hee hee hee, ha ha ha.

Ha. Fucking. Ha.

Aaron "The Mad Whitaker" Bourque; why should we be open-minded to bad ideas, anyway?

[shanejayell]

Can you say "Trying too hard to be hip?"

I knew you could.

[proteus_lives]

I will say this, hooray for Rocket Red!

Hooray, that is, to be saying!

[omnipotent]

That plane is not the Batwing, is it?

[silverzeo]

SO is this were Legacy left off or it back at the start?

[kirke_novak]

So happy that Booster and Batman still remember being BFFs. Like they've always been. Bwahaha, Batmnan, come on, bwahaha for me. T_T

[autohobbs]

Not sure how I feel about this. From what I got this really does retcon the entire previous JLI, and it seems like Didio has all but confirmed Ted Kord doesn't exist. I'm really sad about this. :(

[espanolbot]

Ah for the days when crazy people didn't assume that the UN was some international conspiracy to start wars and mess with people, instead of being kind of underfunded and not as powerful as they should be.

I do think that this is an interesting change from the original Stormwatch though, in that there WAS a shady group of UN guys that the organisation answered to who were implied to secret control the world (at least until that guy with the bionic knees killed them to show how hardcore the new series was). Here it at least seems to be the case of it being more helping people than control, even though it does half a tinge of the Avengers Initiative about it.

This is one of the books I'm looking foward to the most.
But more importantly, did anyone else think "JUSTICE!" at the end of those pages?

[eyz]

Hey hey hey! The new costume does actually look like a giant pajama! I knew it!

So it is a continuation of Generation Lost afterall...?
The only one who hasn't changed costumes is Guy (like the rest of the GL part of the DCU) and Ice continues to wear that ugly redesign from Generation lost...
Though I do like Vixen's :'3

[lieut_kettch]

I don't recognize the blonde woman in the white jumpsuit.

Okay, I like the cut of this title's jib.

Not perfect, but it's trying. I like the characters and I like seeing superheroes generally working together.

Also: good to see one of the Great Ten actually on an international team. The August General is kind of a jerk, though. Of the members of the Ten, I would have thought him the least likely to join (though he was almost certainly ordered to)...but as the leader of the Ten, I assumed he'd be up for that position here (but he's never had his own title, so that wasn't going to happen).

[richardak]

This was one of only a small number of DCnU titles I was planning on trying out, although I originally only expected to stay with it for maybe six issues. In the end, I didn't make it for two.

It wasn't terrible, but it wasn't great either, to be honest. Nothing about it really grabbed me. And the thing is, I didn't love Generation Lost either, but that at least had the nostalgia factor working for it. This doesn't even have that.

And it wasn't the gratuitous insult, either. There's just nothing interesting to me about this story.

[mistersandman]

Does the August General in Iron do anything in this issue, or is he just a reminder that the Great Ten still kind of exist?

[darkknightjrk]

Hmm. This isn't one I was planning to pick up--never really dug Jurgen's past work--but these scans don't look so bad. I might pick this up in trade if it keeps up.

Looks good, but....

[capt_satellite]

....I'm waiting for a good "Bwa-ha-ha-ha!" moment :)

[dancesontrains]

In that first drawing of Batman, his cape looks like a mass of black tentacles~
