Description

World War III! We've got nuclear bombs, some New Gods (and their dogs), angels, huge eye balls, Lex Luthor, some alternate dimensional space, Batman getting his revenge on Promethus, the end of Wonder World (a place we had barely heard of), the return of the Shaggy Man (gone for almost 3 issues!) and Superman kissing Huntress, kind of. It's also the final Grant Morrison arc from the JLA title that we're covering (though we are doing a few special issues next ep). Kevin feels there are too many characters to really feel any of them. Will thinks the dazzling plot is enough. Overall, we like it better than the genie/JSA story but wish it was a bit less crowded. We also talk about the new Spider-Man 2 video game for Playstation 5 for half an hour. Too much?
