Review of 'Justice League of America' on 'Goodreads'

This is my second trip into the New 52 (having been avoiding it where possible 'til now).

World's Most Dangerous holds some promise. The first half of the book deals with putting together a new team as a counterpart to the JL. Vibe, Stargirl, Hawkman, Green Arrow, Catwoman, Katana, Manhunter, Green Lantern and Steve Trevor - some really interesting, oft-overlooked characters. The team dynamic feels a bit more how DC used to produce books - I particularly enjoyed Vibe's role here.

The second half gets dragged down by the chaos of Trinity War which, sadly features a good third of the same pages as this book - feeling a bit cheated in this regard, I have to say.

Overall not bad, but I wish some of the characters had room to breathe and develop a bit more.
