Geoff Johns and David Goyer do such a great job of showcasing these characters. There is such respect and reverence for this group. They have taken characters that are usually in supporting roles and made them shine. Characters like Sand, Stargirl, and Hawkgirl to name a few. The art it mostly by Stephen Sadowski and its very good. I thought the two arcs presented here are both wrapped up a little too easily. The JLA/JSA crossover was spectacular. Overall, a very good read.

Didn’t really care for neither the Hawkman arc or the JLA crossover, but the event tie in was fun as well the prelude to the JLA crossover

The strongest aspect of these books is the team dynamic. Allowing characters to spend time outside whatever conflict they're facing elevates it above other big team books.

Really strong follow up the volume one, I feel like the JSA in this era is really picking up steam in the stories here. The first arc here covers a pretty intense battle with the rejuvenated Injustice Society, while the second story focuses on the return of Hawkman. Which also continues in a ongoing a Hawkman series that DC has also collected in this kind of large volume format. I actually really enjoyed the Hawkman/Hawkgirl story, so I might be picking that volume up next. This book also includes a great JLA/JSA crossover. This team up reminded me a lot of the annual JLA/JSA crossovers from the 60s, 70s, and 80s. All the various ‘Crisis On...’ adventures from the past. Very fun read, ties out the Injustice Society arc that began the volume, great Pacheco art, definitely would recommend.
