Johns was born to write the JSA. He fires on all cylinders when he's writing the team.
Nice revael for Starman. The clues were scattered in the first issue (references to Color Kid and Polar Kid, Thom's teammates in the Pre-ZH Legion).
The return of Hypertime!

JSA is a great book so far, Hec. I've been really surprised by how much better the writing has gotten with the relaunch. My favorite of the new JSA'ers would have to be Maxine. She really sparkled in her introduction, and I think her friendship with Stargirl should add a lot. I look forward to seeing how the character grows in the series. Starman is a close second, though. I like the Legion, but Thom Kallor didn't interest me a whole lot when he was sane. He's much more intriguing now. I think Johns has actually thought out his insanity, as opposed to just having him say crazy things. It makes him a much more credible and interesting character. That said, I do like what's going on with Wildcat. I love when characters are forced to accept responsibility for their actions, and karma has bit Ted so hard with his son. It's great to see. This book is likely going to be a favorite for me, the way things are going now. So far, JSA is a distinct improvement from the last series.

Issue 2 jumped into the "very good" column after, what I call, a weak number 1 issue. Hated some of the dialog and "heros" acting like school kids.
Looking forward to more, now.

One thing I would like to see if the return of Infinity Inc, not that brood of Luthor's cronies, either. I am curious and psyched about Starman. LOVE hypertime!!!

Might be possible to see the Infinitors return, but I doubt it'll be until after 52. With Luthor disgraced and Lana running Lexcorp, might be the JSA could reclaim the name. But I guess we'll see what comes up after 52 is done.

First three issues are out. What does everyone think so far?
