Even with the bravest superheroes to fight the villains,
good is never guaranteed to win. The Justice League comes
together again to battle someone close to Aquaman, but
saving the world is hard...especially when it's personal.
I am a huge fan of DC Comics, and while I normally only read
individual heroes' comics, I still find it hard to resist
the Justice League. When this powerful team including
Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, and many others work
together, incredible things happen. In JUSTICE LEAGUE VOL 3:
THRONE OF ATLANTIS, the mighty heroes do not disappoint.
What I like most about this volume is the contrast between
individual personal problems and united fronts. In some
scenes, there is a hero or two remembering what love is. In
another, the whole team is working hard to battle the evil
they know can't be allowed to win. Both the personal touches
and the intense action they all face make for an
invigorating story.
Though the plot is intense and aggressive, it wasn't what
took my breath away. The art work in this volume is
completely beautiful. The expressions of anger, pain,
seriousness, and sometimes even love are shown extremely
well. I am especially fond of them during the scenes with
Superman and Wonder Woman together. The attraction and
uncertainty between them is displayed nicely.
If you are a fan of anything Justice League or of the
author, Geoff Johns, I would tell you to pick up this latest
volume. You will be captivated and engrossed, and maybe just
like me, you will end up loving it. I am still left with a
favor for more of the individual hero comics, but I will
happily continue to follow the Justice League story line.
When Atlantis is struck by a U.S. Naval missile gone awry,
Atlantis--led by Aquaman's brother Ocean Master--attacks the
East Coast of the United States flooding its major cities
such as Boston, Metropolis, Gotham City and several others.
The Justice League comes together to help Aquaman turn back
the tide, but they soon learn that they are woefully
overmatched by the Atlantean Army, and must find a way to
save the world from total annihilation.
