Justice League of America #38 - DC

Here we go again . . another re-invention of the Justice League. But . . that's ok. The people handling it, James Robinson and Mark Bagley, should bring us some remarkable stories in the future. Right now the team consists of Vixen, Doctor Light, Plastic-Man and Red Tornado. Actually, Vixen put out a call to all active members, but these are the only guys that showed up. They're meeting in the cave in Happy Harbor. She's hoping that something there, something from the League's past, will help to motivate them to continue on in the future. But then . . Despero arrives. And, for some reason, he brings Gypsy with him. We don't actually find out what his attack was all about. Zatanna shows up to help even out the battle, and she's about to zip him off to the center of the Earth when . . something else pulls him away. She's also come to enlist all of their help. She tells them about the attack of all the dead 'heroes' and 'villains' back at the Hall of Justice. Also, she left Firestorm alone there while she came for help. We see on the last page though that Doctor Light, the old Doctor Light . . the dead one . . seems to be waiting for them. That doesn't look good. Anyways, this issue when Mari is talking to the rest of them, it seems like she's trying to find every excuse in the book to not keep the team together. I thought she was trying to motivate them, not demoralize them. Also it seems that all of these members are currently hurt, or 'broken'. It's going to take a lot of teamwork and interaction to pull this group back together. Currently we have Vixen, Doctor Light, Plastic Man, Red Tornado, Zatanna, Gypsy and Firestorm. It could be worse. But not much. I just hope they can rebuild from here. But with James and Mark at the helm . . I'm not to worried. It should be a great ride.
