The Flash answers a JLA distress signal only to find that his fellow teammates have been trapped by the Mirror Master! Now a prisoner himself, the only person that can save The Flash is... The Flash?!
It's Jay Garrick to the rescue as the JSA-er makes a special appearance in this issue of Justice League Unlimited.
I loved the issue. A good story starring the Speedsters. Knowing that The Flash in the JLA is Wally West, I understand that they couldn't have a Kid Flash in this story. But that's all that's really missing from this adventure was a Kid Flash. No, you couldn't have Impulse, he would have been too all over the place. Thus his presence would have ruined the pace of the story. But a Kid Flash was missing from this issue.
I enjoyed the interior artwork by Carlo Barberi. It was very similar to that of the Cartoon Network series of which this comic is based. But what is up with the front cover?
Jay Garrick looks awful. I mean it looks about as bad as I draw. Garrick appears like somebody accidentally drew Powdered Toast Man (from Ren & Stimpy) as the Golden Age Flash.
Yikers!
Worth Consuming!

A book is like the TARDIS. Open it up and it's bigger on the inside. One part reading journal, one part educational tool for pop culture newbies and parents of young geeks. This blog is your portal into the world of movies, TV, superheroes, and of course books!

Justice League America #83
After killing one of the prisoners, Guy Gardner has a melt down and escapes. Hot on his tail is the League, Captain Atom, the golden age Flash, and Guy Gardner!? Wouldn’t you know it, we get to the good stuff and a cliffhanger hits only to inform me, I need an issue I don’t have in another series I don’t even collect in order to get some answers! I hate that!
In order to read the conclusion, you’ll need Guy Gardner, #15.
Worth Consuming, but a total let down!
