Future State: Justice League #1 review

There’s a new Justice League. Some are children of the originals, some have taken on the legacies with no family links. All are fearless fighters for what’s right. Of course, where there’s a Justice League, there’s a Legion of Doom. At first glance, these villains don’t seem too impressive, so it’s no great surprise when, […]
