content: I've been reading JLA graphic novel for a number of years, and I thought that KINGDOME COME and JLA: EARTH 2 were the best I've read.....UNTIL I read THIS one. Only Batman would think of something this deadly....but it makes perfect sense. Being the only super-hero without any super speed, flying powers, etc., why NOT protect yourself and others if the rest of the JLA went rogue? Personally, I think Batman knows that he doesn't need the JLA, but they most definitely need him. Suffice to say, if you get only one novel, get THIS ONE!
