Justice League America Vol 1 #96-97

Image
 Luckily for my fragile sanity, the next two issues are brief on appearances. Justice League America #96 Rush to Judgment (February 1995) We have a single panel at Maxwell's funeral to remind ourselves that the baby is growing at an accelerated rate. The rest of the issue is a tedious fight, which I'm sure is important to whatever the main plot is going on right now. Justice League America #97 A Burning Coal (March 1995) We have a full page that throws the plot into the final turn of the plot. Not so little baby teleports himself somewhere, with Kara following behind to places unknown! And that's it, next issue we'll see what will happen!

Justice League America Vol 1 #95 - Where the Wild Things Are

  JANUARY 1995 20th DECEMBER 1994 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 replaci...

WHAT ARE YOU MADE OF? Justice League America #94 Published:  18th October 1994 Cover Date:  December 1994 Penciler:  Chuck Wojtkiewicz Inker:  Bob Dvorak Colorist:  Gene D'Angelo Letterers:  Clem Robins Editors:  Brian Augustyn / Ruben Diaz Introduction Post Infinite Crisis everything that happens here, along with the whole baby fiasco. Arion at this point knows that Power Girl isn't Atlantian, has always she wasn't, but still acts as though she was for whatever the whole baby plot was about Plot Sypnosis Talking off, we start with Arion explaining about Atlantis, the high-magic past that seems to have been attacked by someone or something with high-tech power armour! Here he reinforces that she was sent to the present to protect humanity, a rare mention of her Atlantian origins, but it also tied into the baby! They carefully sidestep the ideas that the baby was put there by Arion, instead suggesting that it's some kind o...

Justice League America #93 - The Baby Hunt

  THE BABY HUNT Justice League America #93 Published:  28th September 1994 Cover Date:  November 1994 Penciler:  Chuck Wojtkiewicz Inker:   Bob Dvorak Editors:   Brian Augustyn / Ruben Diaz Introduction Ironically I'm just a month shy of this issue coming out thirty years ago. As well as making us I'm sure all feel old (the '90s were just yesterday wasn't it?), it's amazing how different things were back then.  It also means that the baby story picks up almost straight away, and it continues for eight more issues! Luckily we can skim some of them but this is the first one that suggests something special is going on! Plot Synopsis We pick up with a full-page spread of the new team. After Zero Hour we had a new team from the combined members from all the previous versions. The Justice League International/Europe is now dead and gone! Currently, the team is Wonder Woman (the leader), The Flash, Hawkman, Metamorpho, Fire, Crimson Fox, Obsidian and N...
