The Justice League of America is the greatest collective of super-powered beings around — or at least they were.
While the JLA may feature some of the greatest heroes around — beings like Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern, etc. — they are still only about a dozen altogether, so when Lex Luthor assembles the greatest group of super-villains ever assembled, the Injustice League Unlimited, the good guys are definitely in for a bad time.
The fun begins in the Justice League Of America Wedding Special, where Green Arrow’s bachelor’s party and Black Canary’s bachelorette’s are spoiled when news comes in that the young hero Firestorm has been savagely attacked by a group of villains.
When several groups of JLA members check out different leads to find Firestorm’s assailants, they find themselves the victims of a well-orchestrated assault and taken prisoner.
By the time the action moves into Justice League Of America #13, there may not be enough heroes left to fight back.
Dwayne McDuffie (Fantastic Four, TV’s Justice League Unlimited) takes over the writing duties on DC’s premiere team book and kicks things off with a bang in an epic storyline that is an absolute page-turner.
