Library Read-a-thon book #2: Justice Society of America vol #1


I saw this the last time I was at the library and was hoping it would still be there when I went back. I heard from some of my friends (the ones who read comics) who said this was really good. This will be another book I'll start sometime over the weekend.


Book: Justice Society of America volume #1: The Next Age (issues #1-4) by Geoff Johns with illustrations by Dale Eaglesham and color by Jeromy Cox

Edition: Trade

Description:

They Were The First Age Of Heroes. Justice Society of America. Now They Are The Next Age...

During the days of World War II, a group of costumed mystery men gathered together to form the first and greatest of super-hero teams. While the team endured many hardships, it stood the test of time -- and remained the quintessential team to look up to.

After the events of the Infinite Crisis, the Justice Society temporarily disbanded. But when World War III was declared on Earth, the JSA regrouped once more to help in the fight against former member Black Adam, who had gone rogue again.

Now, fighting alongside the surviving original members, a new generation of heroes has been born, promising to uphold the legacy their predecessors created and inspire other heroes across the world.

-------

Determined to rebuild the Justice Society of America, founding members Green Lantern, Flash and Wildcat initiate an unprecedented recruitment program -- tracking the bloodlines of heroes across the world and bring in the new Starman, Damage, Liberty Belle and more! but just as the Society welcomes the rookies into their ranks, an evil force is hunting them down, one by one. Now the world's first super team must solve the mystery of the brutal murders...before more members fall!
