We've got a few things going on this issue. First, the JSA have moving into the mountain headquarters of the JLA. It's a good thing they never closed that place down. Next, we have the growing pains of the group having been split in 2. This is the first issue of the JSA where the actually acknowledge the existence of the second group . . the JSA All-Stars. Jesse and Rick have taken opposing sides, in order to keep the lines of communication flowing. At least . . that's what they've told themselves, and others. But it seems like everyone else has just assumed that they've split up. And, Michael is on the road to recovery from the recent attacks by Jeremy Karnes, Karnevil. Speaking of which . . they don't really know what to do with him. They've got him in a kind of cage, but they know they can't keep him here forever. But before they let him go, Alan what to know what he did to his son, Obsidian. And they want to know who he's working with. Anyways, while all of this is going on, it appears that a lord of chaos has come to Earth and decided to enter the form of Kent Nelson. Since he's such a young and inexperienced sage, he doesn't really have any defenses against this kind of thing. However, the JSA have taken notice. By the end of the issue they confront him. 'The first thing we did on moving into this new home was to set up a net of magical and technological warnings against undercover intrusion. You set off every silent alarm Alan put in place.' They all attack, but . . this may be more than they can handle. They find out it's actually . . Mordru the Merciless. I don't know that they have anything to fight this guy. Unless of course, Kent wakes up and taps into his powers. It has happened before. Bill Willingham does a great job with this book, and these characters. He's a terrific writer, and he puts just enough humor into his characters and stories. Travis Moore and Dan Green provide the art. I think we're starting to get settled in now, and this book should be on the right track. I'm sure Bill has some fantastic stories set up for us in the future.
