He's managed to create "event" books inside the pages of a regular series.
These days, most regular series are just used to build up toward the inevitable event book - but Johns (especially in the pages of Green Lantern) actually crafted huge stories independent of spin-offs and other events.
He's doing it again with "The Darkseid War" in the pages of Justice League.
It's a war with multiple fronts, as two members of the League are transported to Apokolips. At the same time, Darkseid is planning an invasion of Earth, where the Anti-Monitor waits - along with a few other powerhouse wildcards (including, of course, the New Gods).
The question is, how can the League stand up to an army of godlike beings?
With a cosmic-level story and terrific art by Jason Fabok, this is definitely the one to keep an eye on. Highly recommended!

You must be kidding....
Nope, not really. What can I say, I like these "big" stories, when done well. We'll see if they can "stick the landing."
I prefer this rather than the "event" that crosses over into all the other books.
I agree completely, Dwayne!
