JUSTICE LEAGUE AMERICA #95 - WHERE THE WILD THINGS ARE

As penance for poor Ted, and I'm not saying I'm responsible, but the timing is suspicious, I return to the horror that is the 90s issues!

Really, I could do this as an extended image, Kara only appears on a page and a bit, but the hair shirt that is completist me can't help but provide the whole torrid tale!

We open on the weirdest full-page splash as an extrubient Bea (Fire) shoots green flames into the air, enjoying her date with Albert Rothstein (Nuklon). The date goes through the whole issue, and it's just them flirting. All good soap opera stuff and generally my catnip. So, enough of the fun stuff and onto the A-plot!

Things are off on the alien station that the League is now using, and Crimson Fox and Obsidian are currently investigating. Though they're distracted by Wonder Woman Diana is currently going through her biker short look!

We were going through a whole replacing the big three with other versions to show how much better we were with them! Obviously, the others accept her back into the team, just in time for a massive alien riot to break out!

Now our Power Girl page! Kara goes to feed her baby to find that her baby has grown into a toddler, and panicking, she goes to find the others, only to run into the alien riot. She's only seen in two more panels, running away from the confusing mess that is the riot. Of all the out-of-character Pee Gee's this is probably the worst. The confident, take-no-prisoners Kara that everyone seems to like is well and truly gone here!

Anyway, one of the random aliens dies, Diana shows it respect, and the other aliens declare that this is a ship full of the last of their kind aliens.

Meanwhile, a happy Fire goes to visit Maxwell only to find out that he's apparently died, though a page earlier with Kilg%re, though he's not named here.

And that's it!

    The completist me stopped reading this series in about a year, and it bugs me that I never finished it and I really don't want to!

      Oh it's a hot mess, and even DC want to admit it exists. For me it's a godsend as it's the kind of mess that's good for content!

      And really you're not missing much I promise!

The (Power) Girl and her (Wild) Cat, part 1

The (Power) Girl and her (Wild) Cat, part 1 Happy JSApril to all who celebrate! As Power Girl is mostly associated with the JSA, after a brief flirtation with the JLA, this blog covers a vast portion of the JSA post 1975 (with a few gaps that I'll get to). So I thought I'd take this moment to talk about a very important issue, my favourite JSAer! After counting out the obvious candidates of Jay Garrick (Flash) , Alan Scott (Green Lantern), and Power Girl natch,  my favourite character might surprise you, being Ted Grant* (Wildcat)! Now this is from the 70s JSA, the first I really got to know, Yolanda Montez (Wildcat 3), Beth Chapel (Dr Mid-Nite) and Courtney Whitmore (Stargirl) are solid modern contenders and for the late 70s we obviously have Kara's bo Helena Waybe (Huntress).  I need to stop before this turns into what have DC ever done for us? Basically, I love all the JSA members! All-Star Super Squad, All-Star Comics #58 (February 1976) With Power Girl being a later ...

JSA, volume 1 #52 - Brand New Day

Image
                                                                        NOVEMBER 2003 10th SEPTEMBER 2003 JSA, Volume 1 #52 BRAND NEW DAY No, not that one, though it's a reset of sorts! As such, almost half the issue is a series of vignettes either ending old plots or setting up new ones. Though, don't worry, we have some juicy Power Girl / Wildcat action towards the end! We start with Jay (Flash) showing Jessie Chambers (formerly Jessie Quick) the recently rebuilt Brownstone, with what must be the most JSA thing as she's taken through the trophy room. (though sadly no Ma Hunkel). Jessie, having recently lost her connection to the Speed Force, is working as a Business Manager. Jay quickly bows out as Rick Tyler (Hourman) shows up with definite romantic chemistry between the two. Meanwhile, Hector Hall, current...

JSA, volume 1 #53 - Blinded

Image
  DECEMBER 2003 15th OCTOBER 2003 JSA, Volume 1 #53 BLINDED We start out with a recap of how consumed by vengeance Jill Carlyle purchased the cursed pistols that led to her becoming the new Crimson Avenger. We can tell it's a flashback because it's black and white! We then cut back to a wounded Power Girl and an apparently dead Wildcat. Luckily, he hacks back to consciousness, which costs him another of his apparent nine lives. Power Girl tries to talk Crimson Avenger down, but we get more of the vengeance stuff, and Power Girl gets shot again, whilst Ted was smart enough to dodge the last few shots. In a strange turn of events, whilst Crimson Avenger monologues, so we tell she's a bad guy, Wildcat helps a wounded Power Girl get away, and we get confirmation that Kara is heavier than she looks! I believe at this point it is traditional to make allusions to the weight of twin puppies, but I like to think I'm classier than that! For the curious, she's 5'7" (1...
