Heroes collide in the next chapter in the Darkseid War.  A deranged Superman fights Wonder Woman; Green Lantern tries to talk Batman off the Chair of Knowledge; Cyborg, Power Ring, Big Barda and Mister Miracle attempt to break the Crime Syndicate out of prison to find out more information to possibly beat the Anti-Monitor.

Things have gone haywire in the DC Universe.  With Darkseid gone, there is great power dispersed to different heroes from the Justice League and they're having a hard time dealing with it not only mentally, but now it seems physically.

The Darkseid War has been a great read so far.  Lots of action and story lines all over the place yet they all converge as well.  Each month I look forward to what is going to happen next.  Wonder Woman is the one hero whose head seems to be the most level as the other Justice League members have their own issues.  Mister Miracle is a fun character and I like seeing this Jack Kirby created character become heavily involved in this story.

Justice League has been one of my favorite of the DC series upon the arrival of the New 52.  Each issue has a lot of great action and includes many of the most familiar of faces in the DC Universe.  This is a great series for those of you into superhero team ups and that seems to be the case with a lot of folks based on the direction the films are going.
