I read the interview and liked what Brad said. He set up everything to come together nicely to form a team and told a good story with good character work. Been waiting for a JLA story like this for a LOOONG time.
Grant Morrisson brought back the big 7 but never really did any character work it was all plot. Sure it was fun and great but I needed more superhero soap opera aka character work.

I'm kinda curious to see what they end up with for a headquarters. I'm guessing something Earth-bound, but we'll see.

Yeah me too. I think earthbound as well since they were just on the moon. But the satellite wouldn't suprise me. Or the Hall of Justice.

The geek in me is hoping for the Hall of Justice, but the nostalgic fan in me would like to see the satellite rebuilt. I can do without the cave or watchtower.

I'd like to see a mansion on 5th Avenue, paid for by Bruce Wayne. With a butler. .)
Like many, I found the whole Grundy/Ivo/Amazo/Tornado thing too confusing. I did, however, love the arc that RT goes through. Now that we know it was sort of a joke, I like the idea of the big 3 sitting on their tushes in the Batcave, oblivious to what's really going on.

I am with Spellbinder. I'm a satellite fan but I would just geek out for the HOJ.
DC, I found it a tad confusing and the JLA Classified story arc coming up about the Son of Amazo is going to confuse me more I think.

There are going to be some very happy nostalgic geeks around here I suspect!

It oddly still somehow reads okay (kinda), but for the optimum reading experience, there's how it should go. (The whole Star City scene should read together). Sorry for that one.

This may be of interest to us Legion fans, on the last page we find out that Trident is really...
Click Here For A SpoilerVal Armorr... in other words Karate Kid, which raises all kinds of questions. Is this pre-crisis Karate Kis like the other Legionnaires showing up, or the new one who has been shown in the Countdown promos. Not to mention how come he's a villain... Either way this leads us into the Lightning saga.
--- NVM, just noticed this was already up in the Recent Sightings thread up in the Legion section...

Or its a tessaract that the leaguers can access from anywhere. A virtual headquarters.
That second one is the HQ for the new Freedom Fighters. There's a real boom in the Super-hero HQ real estate market these days. I bet you the DCU and Marvel Universe mortgage brokers are having a field day.

Thank you wndola1 for posting that note. I was reading the story (LOVED it, btw) and stumbled over that page trying to figure out where it goes. Gotta go reread now ;-)
