  RETURNING JUSTICE LEAGUE EUROPE #39 Published: 28th April  1992 Cover Date: June  1992 Cover Artists:   Ron Randall Penciler:  Ron Randall Inker:   Romeo Tanghal Colourist:   Gene D'Angelo Letterer:   Willie Schubert Editors:   Brian Augustyn Introduction Around this time I was at university, college for my American friends, I shared a house with someone who dressed a little like Deconstructo white biy dreads and holey black CUD jumper. It has nothing to do with the story or the character, (as I recall he was more a Brian from Spaced ) but at least I get a nice memory from this comic! Plot Synopsis Oh no Power Girl is dead, as a weird sexy corpse because of the '90s. Flash goes after the villain to almost falls to his death, catching onto one of the hands of Big Ben. Before the villain faded away into a Union Jack flag because symbolism! We also get a page of him babbling on about classical art, as instead of regular pictures he'll give London complete chaos. Suddenly rem

  DISSOLVING DECONSTRUCTO JUSTICE LEAGUE EUROPE #38 Published: 31ST  March 1992 Cover Date:  May   1992 Cover Artists:   Ron Randall / Randy Elliott Penciler:  Ron Randall Inker:   Randy Elliott Colourist:   Gene D'Angelo Letterer:   Willie Schubert Editors:   Brian Augustyn Introduction The hardest types of comics to talk about aren't the bad ones, they at least have something to complain about, it's the ones that are meh. And that's not an excuse for the rather sparse posting recently, though it probably didn't help, but this issue is twenty-odd pages of a single plot point. Plot Synopsis We open straight from the last issue with our heroes saying that they must take down the villain, whilst Batman wants to watch and learn about his powers. Pee Gee is again the impulsive hothead more ready to punch things than to think about how to deal with problems. Then we're back to the question of who will be the leader, with Power Girl pitching herself as the ideal perso

  The Panic of The Composite Creature BRAVE AND THE BOLD #1 Published:  28 th January 2009 Cover Date:  March 2009 Cover Artists:   James Tucker / Brian Miller Writer:  Matt Wayne Penciler:  Andy Suriano Inker:   Dan Davis Colourist:   Heroic Age Letterer:   Randy Gentile Editors:   Rachel Gluckstern Introduction After so much, or really so little, 90s EXTREME I need a bit of a palate cleanser. So as a touch of unofficial synergy with Shag's look at the Brave and the Bold, as posted on the Fire and Water Network ( for the rare person who's not here from said site, the episode is here ). Whilst Power Girl didn't appear in the animated show, as it seems to be the pattern, she did appear in the first-ever issue of the tie-in comic. And whilst it doesn't mention the JLE at all it just happens to be set in London (England) of all places! Story Synopsis We open as in the cartoon with a vignette where our boisterous Aquaman helps Batman fight Carapax , a Ted Kord Blue Beetle v

  Trinity October 2008 - July 2009 Trinity is frustrating! Not the story which is a fascinating story. Basically, the Trinity (Superman, Batman & Wonder Woman) are banished to another dimension by some of DC's heavy hitters. With them gone history is rewritten so they never existed, instead the Justice Society stepped up and took the strain. But being an ALt Universe it's a little darker and l less hopeful. Thankfully Alfred, the best of all characters, collects together those characters who are connected to the lost heroes, an Eradicator style Super Girl (why it's not Power Girl I'm not sure), gangster Dick Grayson, Fox New style Lois Lane and librarian Donna Troy. They go on a journey to this dimension to find that the Trinty became god-like being that helps guide three alien species. It goes well until it doesn't and they withdraw to do god-like things for however long things have gone on this world! Through the journey the characters remember who they and th

    Trinity #16 Brave Men and Woman October 2008 In 2008 DC rebooted its entire universe, only to switch it back only a year later without any mention! Instead of the JSA protecting humanity from supervillains instead the Justice Society International (obviously a nod to the JLI) does that job as some of the founding members of the JLA no longer exist causing this entire timeline to come into existence! More people need to be made aware of this lost DC Universe!

   Aquaman #7 What Matters Most June 1992 The comic is an amazing story of Aquaman recovering from a psychotic break after the death of his son. But that had nothing to do with Pee Gee's appearance, just showing that he's joined the current JLE, though he lacks the Tom Jones looks of that comic.

CHANGING JUSTICE LEAGUE EUROPE #37 Published: 17 th March 1992 Cover Date: April 1992 Cover Artists:   Ron Randall / Murphy Anderson / Bob LeRose Writer:   Penciler:  Ron Randall Inker:   Randy Elliott Colourist:   Gene D'Angelo Letterer:   Willie Schubert Editors:   Brian Augustyn Introduction Today I learned two new words reading this comic, which is good as if shows that comics can be educational. This sounds like I'm about to say this because there's nothing else good about this comic, which surprisingly I'm not, though it's not as simple as you'd first expect! Plot Sypnosis We start with a full page of cheesecake as Kimiyo (Doctor Light), who for some reason is in just a towel is zipping up Power Girl's new costume. Ralph, who seems to be innocent here rather than a letch, has the door slammed in his face for looking in on the scene. He then talks to Sue who seems to have been put in charge as they explain that this "new" JLE is being launched
