One panel does not a crossover make! I think I could’ve just skipped it; I’m sure Firestorm #9 will explain the JLI’s presence anyway. (Blue Beetle’s pulling the same trick with GL:NG.)

I picked up my copy today. I’m still loving this book and am excited by the new members joining. If the solicits are to be believed, joining the team will be: OMAC, Firehawk, and Batwing.

The only piece I struggled with in this issue was the JLI taking OMAC with them to France. From a storytellers perspective, I totally get why they needed OMAC to travel to France with them. From the perspective of someone living in this New 52 world, I felt the rational was a bit hard to swallow.

Regardless, still a great issue with beautiful art! Loved it! Can’t wait for FIRESTORM #9!

I’ll actually pickup this issue, though I do wonder why Guy Gardner seems to be outside the new 52 …is Firestorm joining the team?
..we’ll see I guess.

OMACTIVATE!

I also want to add that Aaron Lopresti’s rendering of OMAC is absolutely amazing! I have been reading his Garbageman strip in the pages of Weird Worlds and My Greatest Adventure and it’s fantastic! He has a great art style which perfectly suits the DCU. (His writing on that series was excellent as well.)

I will be picking this one up from the LCS this week, along with a few other things (X-O Manowar, for one, and probably a few issues of Firestorm!).
