Some thoughts about Justice League #39

The Justice League keeps losing the trust of the world.

The Fan is still trying to help the team in his own way while they're trying to save all the people they can and somehow that will cause them even more trouble.

Another issue, another complex scenario.

Christopher Priest offers a new installment where he focuses on the multiple conflicts the League has to face. While the presence of The Fan is still something that the writer is exploring, he prefers to concentrate on the realistic problems the group have to deal with including the constant issues with the government and how the people are starting to lose faith in them which gets even worse when they decide to save a group over the other which creates one of the classic examples of social commentary that Priest loves to do but this works pretty well since Priest treats as an actual misunderstanding instead of just favouring one side instead of another.

I can also appreciate the multiple references. The Fan is dressed like the movie version of Aquaman and gives Arthur his rarely use blue costume while many Batmen from many continuities appear in a way that fit the story. The multiple sections allows for a pretty dense read.

Ian Churchill handles the art and is really solid thanks to the expressive characters and clear storytelling.

Great read, still sad that this is going to end.
