Justice League United, Volume 1: Justice League Canada by Dexter Vines, Mike McKone, Timothy Green II, Guillermo Ortego, Cam Smith, Joseph Silver, Jeff Lemire
4.0
This was new to me. I like this version of Animal man. There is an unusual mix of characters in this volume. Stargirl and Martian Manhunter and Adam Strange - who I still don’t know who that is really. This is set up in Canada in the snow. I love that touch. There is also a Native girl in Canada of the Cree first nation called Miiyahbin who is a super hero. She gets her powers from the 7 protectors of the Cree Tribe of ancestors.
I want to have a whole book about this Cree nation and their superhero. It seems like really interesting and cool stuff.
I did enjoy this book, but it got weird. There is some weird beam thing that takes the heroes to another galaxy and there is this genetically modified super baby that is supposed to be the hope for the future and all that. I didn’t so much care for that whole part of it. Still, I had fun reading this story and it was nice having a group of lesser known DC characters and seeing what they are capable of. I’m a fan and I want to get the 2nd volume now.
