Alright, I thought I would take a crack at making a topic here.

I know that many of you have read the spoilers for the new Justice League of America that was released this week, but I love to be surprised.
I was interested in the first issue to see how it went down.
Since this seems to be a new and bold era for DC with the infamous team, why not have a thread where we can all share what we think/like/hate/look forward to?

To start, I bought both covers (cause I'm a chaser whore). I was shocked at who I saw, and who I have not seen on the cover.
Who was I the most excited to see in the line up AND in the comic?
Roy Harper. At last the first Speedy makes his return. I was worried when I did not see him come back to the Outsiders. But now, it seems as if Arsenal is ready to play with the big boys. I can't even explain how overjoyed to see him make a comeback. And without his mentor invited back. O.o

Faces I was shocked to see on the cover: Donna in her star suit, Nightwing (gah, Diana said no vote for her front page), Cyborg (another former Titan making the crossover?), Batwoman

Who I am surprised is missing: Barbara (Dinah and Helena are there O.o). That's all I can think of - just off the top of my head. I'm sure it will dawn on me as time goes by.

So, fellow, Kapowians, any input?

Harper is JLA material now - someone has to take the 'cocky pretty boy' spot.

Roy's been pushed back into the background so many times - it's his time to shine.
And Cyborg might be leaving the Titans.
It's sad - it's like the end of an era. The last Titan from the 'old school' days has really turned in Teen for League.
I hope to see him really make a name for himself.

I have a feeling Cyborg isn't going anywhere.

@ Jesse - One must wonder how many people would of said that Roy was to be the single parent when the Titans first came out. I would of said Garth.

@ Rex - You did! I was hoping to see your flashy mug in the comic. sad
But I believe you're gonna make it.
Ollie - he just has that one liner instinct. It was great.

@ Jake - I really do not wish for that to be the case - but I fear it's true. The cover was just somehing to grab out attention. I really want Cyborg to step it up - he's getting up in age, and all the other Titans have moved off/missing/have other plans.
It's so sad to see him pushed to the side over and over.
