spoilers--
Dwayne McDuffie should be reinstated as writer of the JLA, without question.. just picked up this month's issue, real good stuff in there, Hardware is in the mix, and is apparently his usual snarky self, to the consternation of everyone else.. it was great that you had Hardware, Vixen, john stewart and firestorm all together, representing.. hey, if the "black avengers" can't happen, then the "black justice league" sure as hell can, especially since there's this hal jordan/Green arrow spinoff group.. Make it happen, DC.. now!
and my man Icon shows up at the end.. but Dharma's on the ropes.. bleeding.. what is that, exactly? and he was "holding together the universe"? hmm... glad to see that Milestone peeps have true value in the DCU..
I have to say, I'm extremely ticked at DC editorial.. I want the Maestro as the maestro of JLA for many years to come.. bah! If Geoff Johns and Grant Morrisson and Brian Bendis and Mark Millar and the like can more of less get free rein on the books they want to inhabit, then the same should go for Mr. McD..
My hope is that fan protest is so loud that DC editorial will have no choice but to bring back the Maestro in the near future..
