Justice League #48


I think these adult coloring book covers were a message to colorists. "See? The fans can do your stupid job."

Rating: No change.

The Darkseid War has officially gone on for too long. You can tell because one of the characters is having a baby and that's always the death knell for a sitcom and/or a war. Geoff Johns really didn't know where he was going with this when he began it, did he? He just sat in a bar and made a list of bullet points of things he thought would make fans come in their pants.

  • Kill Darkseid.
  • Make Batman sit in a chair.
  • Have a Mother Box try to fuck Hal Jordan.
  • Have a race between The Flash and Black Racer.
  • Let Lex rule Apokolips
  • Explain Darkseid's chair fetish by making the Mobius Chair the Anti-monitor's chair which passes on the Anti-Life Equation through a person's buttocks.
  • Have Ultraman boof some Kryptonite.
  • Let Wonder Woman narrate so I can have her point out the similarities between epics of old and this story that I'm writing which will surely be a modern day epic.
  • Comment on Aquaman by leaving him out completely. Fucking loser.
  • Buy a bunch more hats with the money I make.

The Justice League spends most of this issue punching Anti-Beings in the face. I think that usually causes the universe to explode due to some made-up antimatter/matter thing but it's okay for this story. Also a big section of Gotham has been Crisis on Infinite Earthed so that might be a big deal later. You know what? I doubt it will be. Fuck the people of Gotham. They know what they're risking by living there.
