Some thoughts about Justice League #21

Can the Justice League save only good people?

The reality where they arrived was too good to be true and now the team will be forced to take a hard decision to save the Multiverse.

This continues to be too much.

Scott Snyder offers a new installment where, surprise, surprise, the perfect dimension the Justice League visited was too perfect for its own good. This of course is one of the most predictable things about this story but believe it or not, that's not the biggest problem here. The biggest problem is that Snyder continues his usual route about trying to make things "bigger" and thus now creates the World Forger who is "The Creator of the Multiverse" (As if "The Mother of the Monitor and Anti-Monitor" wasn't enough) which is too forced, overplayed, unnecessary, retcons a bit of history I believe and finally, it continues to support my opinion about how this is basically the Dragon Ball Z of superhero comics, everything needs to be more powerful than what came before and is just tiring.

And this doesn't need to be this way. Snyder just needed to create new ideas like how he did initially (which were not the most interesting concepts mind you but at least didn't try to outdo themselves at every second). This is not good worldbuilding, this is just making things seem bigger in a vain attempt at creating scope.

Jorge Jimenez' artwork is amazing though. Believe it or not, he's becoming even better as an artist with a greater range of expressions, lots of energy and amazing style.

Totally expected and I predict thing won't be better next time.
