A review by mschlat
JSA: The Golden Age by James Robinson

3.0

A dark alternative take on what happened to DC's All Star Squadron and Justice Society after WWII. The art from Paul Smith is subdued and effective, especially when it focuses on the late 40's domestic dramas that encompass most of the book. (Most of the "mystery men" don't appear in costume for most of the series.) James Robinson includes the characters I would expect (Johnny Quick, Libby Lawrence, Carter Hall, ...) and some I've never heard of (Captain Triumph) and builds a compelling ensemble. The plot is a bit too predictable for my tastes, but may be opaque to those without a good knowledge of DC WWII continuity.

I reread this to see if I'm keeping it in my collection, and I am.
