Touched on throughout Brian Michael Bendis ’ recentJustice Leaguerun — includingJustice League # 73 — and finishing up in the final few issue of this flagship series which will culminate with the deaths of nine mainstay leaguers , the idea of this version of the squad demand brisk perspectives and new voices is now formally lose in theshuffle towards something new .

note right smart back inJustice League # 59 , by Bendis and David Marquez , staple League member Green Arrow draw attending to something DC ’s premier team has struggled with for years : having fresh perspectives on the team . Saying , “ … people start up to see things through a similar optical prism … even us . We require to get new voices in here . Some interruption . Some dissent,”Green Arrowmakes promises to fans that terminate up never being realized — at least when it comes to the squad roll seen throughout Bendis ’ run .
Recruiting a young and powerful hero full of apotheosis named Naomi , an ancient anti - hero on the itinerary to good known as Black Adam , and the one - metre loss leader of the Amazons , Hippolyta , to matter in on League decisions , Green Arrow ’s promise initially seemed like it was going to come to pass , yet ultimately ended up going nowhere special . Made specially plain as Black Adam has been indefatigably open to anything the team desire to do along withHippolytamore or less succeed suit and Naomi constantly being far too starstruck to call into question much of anything , and you have a half - hearted effort at trying something young that never ends up go as far as it could or should have .
And now with this early hope being admit to the extreme by quite literally wiping the slate clean to make way for new voices all around , Bendis ’ track down essentially set up a band - up is an curious way for this serial to climax , particularly when one of the first pledge made in his story was to accomplish exactly what “ destruction of the Justice League ” is gear up to do , just with the linchpin League phallus involved rather . And while it ’s potential this next young era will capitalize on the original ’s assumption by giving reader a less predictable read now that the team can not rely on its fundamental principle heroes , the fact that Bendis ’ run did n’t have any young heroes challenging old way , no real battle between League member on the whole , and no unfeigned push to make any of the team ’s dynamics feel dissimilar or new , assure that this unexampled earned run average ’s hope becomes more of a fresh era fib alternatively .
So although the overall level of Bendis’Justice Leaguerun was a fun transitional tale of newfangled rip meeting old heroes , it never quite hit the beats it initially set itself up for . The roster of theJustice Leagueis yet again change as its members are killed off but unfortunately , the hope of its most late era will also be going with them .
