I.M.O. Review: Justice League of America #33 (DC Comics) By Eddie R.

Into the Dark.

We pick up where we left off in the last issue: In the dark. With the recent shakeup events taken place both behind, and within the pages of this series, I am left to wonder in what direction all of this will be heading? I have never seen the JLA at such a low point since the end of the satellite era, and the beginning of the tales from Detroit. But forever the optimist, I hold out that things will get better.





Justice League of America # 33 is the continuation of the story from the previous issue, where the female Dr. Light is on the trail of the cosmic vampire known as Starbreaker. As she continues to follow a very long and dark tunnel, Dr. Light soon emerges half way across the world in Tibet. Once there, she uncovers what Starbreaker's true motives are. Right behind her is the JLA, or what’s left of it, along with a new character for added support. Usually I wouldn’t mind some new blood in the mix, but given the current status of this doppelgangers original incarnation, this addition feels very untimely. And from the reaction Zatanna has, once she realizes this person isn’t who they appear to be, I would feel the exact same way.

As the story unfolds, and once the JLA manage to locate Dr. Light, an even bigger mystery begins to develop. We are presented with another twist on an old situation involving parallel worlds colliding, and the fate of those who wish to protect or destroy them.

I only hope that the JLA will soon find its way back from this darkness, and something better does come to light

6.5/10
