Putting “the big seven” back on the team really should have been a no-brainer. It’s just odd that it took one of comicdom’s greatest minds to fix a book which had once been so influential that it had inspired Stan Lee to create The Fantastic Four. Sure, experiments like Justice League International (and even the Justice League Detroit era) are retrospectively viewed as worthwhile experiments, and maybe even as quirky stories in their own right. ![]() This doesn’t even factor in that the series had been in trouble for decades before Grant Morrison stepped in. It’s packed to the brim with action and explosions and everything is turned up to maximum in order to grant it the greatest impact with the audience. ![]() It supposedly provided the inspiration for the Justice League in its cartoon form.

You’re not to blame, but you have to let Hush, Hush go. But when people say they like Hush, Hush, that it is still their favourite even in a guilty way, I cannot grasp that. There’s merit to trash, if you read it lightly and don’t let the vile bits seep. When people say Sweet Evil is a guilty pleasure, I understand. ![]() When people say they liked Fallen, I kinda get it. It is the worst of this era, every problem from every other book condensed into far too long tomes of disgusting nonsense. When I say Hush is the worst of them, I mean it.
