Date: 2012-04-19 11:11 pm (UTC)With the Morrison League it was the "big seven/greek gods allegory" concept and doing the impossible....With Johns/Goyer JSA it was referencing a shit ton of continuity, reconciling the old nature of the JSA with the new kids, and the familial aspect of the JSA
With Nu52 JLA, the heroes feel like assholes, the chemistry is forced, and the one big baddie was nothing more than a world class jobbing/going through the motions to get readers on board. The book feels too "corporate", too "lets throw our number one writer on this book".....If Johns had never written JLA back when he probably had much more choice and less pressure, why would he want to now?
