Eclipso is super-powered and super-evil, but he's also super-annoying. I don't care much for posturing villains, and he's that in spades. That's not to say he doesn't wreak a lot of habit in this book. He really does. I gave this three stars because the action is pretty epic, and there is no guarantee of a happy ending. You pretty much think it's all over until the la This was a 'meh' read to me. You pretty much think it's all over until the last few pages. I've liked the first couple of JLA titles, but this one didn't do much for Justice League of America: Rise of Eclipso. I'm not very familiar with this team, and it was interesting getting to know them, such as I did. I had trouble tracking the story between Justice League of America: Rise of Eclipso graphics and the prose. One of my pet peeves with graphic novels. They can be done very well where this is not a problem, but it wasn't in this volume. It doesn't help that the cast of Justice League of America: Rise of Eclipso is so expansive. Eclipso has the ability to take over and make people into his minions, and the confusing part for me is not knowing what the various characters are normally like, makes them as evil minions sort of meaningless. Probably someone who has more background in the DC Universe than I do may feel different. On the good side, the artwork is very good. I find Donna Troy's outfit mesmerizing, a jumpsuit with quasars and stars on it. It was almost hypnotic, quite honestly. Probably one of the aspects I liked most about this book. This one was more of a miss for me. Jul 20, Blindzider rated it it was ok Shelves: comics. I found this to be incredibly difficult to follow for multiple reasons. There is some explanation, but not enough. Some of it even the human didn't follow. But also, this is going on while the story follows other characters and plot threads. This means y I found this to be incredibly difficult to follow for multiple reasons. The last issue is just everyone giving their reasons for leaving the team. Apparently they recapped adventures that were planned for the series but never happened. Nov 27, Keith Davis rated it it was ok Shelves: graphic-novels. The result is sort of reminiscent of Justice League of America: Rise of Eclipso League Detroit with a bunch of minor characters insisting to each other that yes they really are the real Justice League. It is especially unfortunate because I like a lot of these characters and I like the concept. I've often thought DC could support a really good Defenders type of team made up of powerful but under appreciated characters like Captain Marvel, Power Girl, and Plastic Justice League of America: Rise of Eclipso. Given the right creative team it could be a lot of fun. This book alas could not be that book due to forced crossovers, characters inserted or yanked for no good reason, last minute changes, and a rushed ending. The result is an incoherent mess. Maybe someday we will get to see what James Robinson can actually do with a team of off-beat superheroes if given time to develop it at a reasonable pace, like Peter David has been allowed to do with X-Factor. Maybe someday. Oct Justice League of America: Rise of Eclipso, Chris Lemmerman rated it it was ok Shelves: comics-and-manga-read. As a story, The Rise of Eclipso has some very good ideas, implemented very poorly. Some of the explanations get a little too hand-wavy, like Donna's "light" being from getting through all her trials, and the reason why Eclipso returned in the first place is completely ignored. And the fact As a story, The Rise of Eclipso has some very good ideas, implemented very poorly. And the fact that James Robinson seems intent on shoving The Shade into everything he writes, and making him an important character all the time - I get it, he's your favourite character, please move on and stop trying to make him everyone elses. On the whole though, this isn't a terrible ending to the JLA, and does seem to come to a neat enough conclusion, but doesn't really nail anything in the way it should. Jan 02, Geoff Derks rated it it was ok. This felt like James Robinson was told to run out the clock before the New 52 started. Aug 22, Jason Tanner rated it liked it. Mark Bagley, who was just on fire with this title, is gone, replaced by inferior fill-in artists, primarily Brett Booth, Justice League of America: Rise of Eclipso half- baked Ian Churchill clone who cannot for some reason draw Donna Troy without a neckline that plunges to her bellybutton. The story itself was rushed and scattershot, but at least defeating Eclipso had the benefit of solving all the League's personal problems. Robinson's run was clearly cut short, I presume to clear the way for the New 52, but his parting issue gave us a chance to see what could have been, and what could have been could have been a lot of obscure fun. It was a fun lineup, and I wish there was more of it. This particular volume strives to reach "okay. Dec 08, Jacinta Carter rated it it was amazing. I really enjoyed this graphic novel because the villains were so great. I honestly didn't care about any of the heroes in this one though it was nice to read about some superheroes I hadn't seen beforebecause I was so interested in the villains' stories. So if you're into graphic novels with really strong, well-written bad guys, this is the one for you.

If you want great, check out Kingdom Come. Mar 21, Steven rated it liked it Shelves: anthology-collectiongraphicnovelssuper-heroes. Not a bad story though it never grabbed me and excited me as I hoped it would. I expect better stories out of James Robinson and this, while trying to be epic, was "too many notes," as it were. I know they're properly the age to be first-tier heroes, but I never got that feel. Also, the whole end of the book was packed with qu Not a bad story though it never grabbed me and excited me as I hoped it would. Also, the whole end of the book was packed with quick exposition rather than an actual story.
