This is (presumably) the final issue in writer Dwayne McDuffie's run on the Justice League of America, and he manages the Herculean effort of wrapping up several storylines in one issue.The JLA must face off against Starbreaker, one of their most powerful foes, save the life of the mysterious Dharma, and explain the mystery behind the Milestone heroes being part of the DC Universe.
The whole thing seems a bit rushed, but at least we get a wrap-up to the story that's been meandering through the title for months now.
It's sad that only with the last couple of issues have we seen McDuffie spinning the kind of quality stories we've been expecting all along - though it's better late than ever.
The art also seems a bit jumbled, which is to be expected, since no less than two pencilers and five inkers created it. It's not bad at all, it's just not outstanding.
Here's hoping the editors can get a grip on this title and get it back to being what it has traditionally been - DC's best title.
Grade: B-
