Some thoughts about Justice League #24

Ultraman's origins are revealed and they truly explain why he is so messed up.

Indoctrinated by his Kryptonian parents with the idea of strength and despise since he was an infant, Ultraman took over a troubled couple named the Kents until he was able to get things on his own, with the years he was able to take control of the whole Earth 3 along with people who shared his same ideology. Will he have the same luck on Prime Earth? Black Adam certainly won't make things easy.

I'm impressed, Geoff Johns actually managed to make Ultraman into a compelling and complex villain. One that was forced to take that role because he believes is his fate, the recreation of Earth 3's Krypton was fantastic, a planet where people only value power and try to survive by any cost.

The little hints about the rest of both worlds were pretty interesting too. How Power Ring gained his abilities, Superwoman's identity, the Kents and most importantly the reveal of an all new Doom Patrol which looks strangely like the second version from the previous universe. I need to congrat Johns for putting a lot of content in this issue, it felt pretty dense.

Ivan Reis keeps showing his skills on the art side and the title continues improving its quality thanks to him.

Fantastic issue, this is how a tie-in should be handled.
