5.0 out of 5 stars Hey! Buy this book -- it's fun!, February 3, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: JLA: World Without Grown-Ups (Grownups) (Paperback)

This graphic novel collects DC Comics' limited series of the same name. The premise: all kids 16 and under are mysteriously transported to a seperate reality from the adults. Robin, Impulse, Superboy and the rest of DC's young heroes must find a way to keep order and solve the problem. This book is great if you're looking for an alternate to all those grim comics of the late 80s and early 90s like "The Dark Night Returns" or "Watchmen". The above description lists only Mike McCone as the illustrator, but over half of the story is illustrated by the fantastic Humberto Ramos, whose artwork made the early issues of "Impulse" so great. As an added bonus, there's also a "Young Justice" story in here too, exploring the origin of The Secret. With art by Todd Nauck, no less. What more couldja want??

This review is from: JLA: World Without Grown-Ups (Grownups) (Paperback)

I wasn't sure about this book, as I hadn't read about any of these three young superheroes before.
BUT...my attention was captured pretty quickly! The new young Robin is really smart, and the team he makes with Superboy and Impulse (Flash's grandson) is surprisingly good.
I really enjoyed the characters, the humour (especially the frustration Impulse's teammates experience with him) and the awesome art.
Definitely a book to check out. The plot coulda been a bit better(though there are a couple of twists here and there), but everything else really made up for it!

This is one of my favorite JLa mini series. Robin,Superboy,and Impulse eventaully form the team Young Justice. There other team members are Wondergirl,Arrowette,and Secret.If you liked it read Young Justice 80-page Giant and the ongoing monthly series Young Justice.
