So, Starro is the DC version of Staryu.
A psychic/water pokemon that, when it evolves, becomes more powerful and grows more limbs!

this Starro reminds me of Bill Cipher from Gravity Falls.
I'm sorry but am I the only one who hears Plankton's (from SpongeBob) voice when Starro speaks lol? Or maybe Marvin the Martian?

Someone really needs to take a different approach with Cyborg at DC. How many times are we going to this well. Stat of the art motherbox technology. I know I shouldn't expect anything considering how Snyder has always written him but I can't help it. I honestly feel if it was any other character they wouldn't end up shredded or immobile from working some tech magic (which is what Cyborg is suppose to be all about).
Omega Titans still sounds like a weird name.
Art for the comic has been solid so far. Not sure I like what they did with Brainiac 2.....or Batman for that matter this issue.
Starro was surprisingly a highlight for this comic, despite not being anything remotely to the Starro I think of. Still he was fun. Still not really in love with this plot or premiss.
The J-man
Wasn't a fan of the art in this issue. Particularly didn't like how Wonder Woman, Flash, and Cyborg were drawn.
I also prefer Starro to be totally alien emotionally rather than this weird version we're getting in this series.
Felt like this was the weakest issue of the series thus far.
I know this is heresy to most but I was one of the rare fans that wasn't excited about Manapul drawing this series. I just don't much care for his work, though it's certainly superior to To or (especially) Rossmo (who is pretty dreadful). I never really thought I'd be disappointed that Manapul wasn't drawing all of this but the replacement artists have been a real step down. How long have they known about this? It must have been a while since so much is planned for after it. I think it's absurd that Manapul couldn't draw 4 issues with the lead time he must have had.
And what's the deal lately with the constant replacement artists throughout the DCU? Ivan Reis used to be able to draw a couple issues a month when called upon for that. Now he can't stick with a series more than two issues. Reis and Fabok and Mahnke were prolific with the New 52 JL by Johns. Back then, the best DC artists and Geoff Johns himself were working on deadline and rarely had a delay or replacement. Now it's like pulling teeth to get Johns to write anything on time or for most artists to draw anything on time. The Terrifics has really been problematic this way.
What changed? Now it's almost the norm to see fill-in artists and even writers. And they're not even double-shipping most titles anymore. It gives me even more respect for Tom King, who is never late, and who is always on top of his game. His stable of Batman artists have been astounding too and they don't seem to have trouble drawing on deadline either. King's Batman has really stood out for being one of the only major books that constantly ships on time with the announced creative teams.
I like the story a lot, it's fast and not too long
I thought the art in the first part if issue 3 was diabolical, just could not believe it, skipped that part it was so off putting
Ha! I couldn't agree more! It's gotten to the point where I can't wait for Starro to speak. It's funny as hell!
I love everything about this comic, including the Omega Titans. That ain't no lame name!
I just don't care for the art so much, except when Manapaul is drawing it.
And Snyder is great.
WHO DAT?!!

That'd be cool. Though I'm hoping it might be that ship the Batman Who Laughs was riding in. Not sure what happened to that.....
So, I've been enjoying No Justice a lot more than I expected to. I've been pretty excited about the regular monthly that'll be starting after No Justice wraps (that roster! Those artists!) but No Justice itself didn't sound overly appealing. But DC Nation #0 made me curious and I'm glad I gave No Justice a shot.
Issue 3 was a little weak and I hate the way Cyborg keeps getting punked. He's got tons of experience and a gods damn Mother Box for a heart, DC! Dude should be up there with Clark, Diana, and Barry for "biggest badasses around" lists! But damn this is just a big, dumb, fun comic book. It's unapologetic in its ridiculousness, it doesn't try to be overly serious, it's just having a blast and inviting us along for the ride. It's like Metal in that regard, only without the Black Sabbath/Metallica influences.
And Star-bro.....man, on one hand I don't like this weird new voice Snyder is writing the character with, but it's so gods damn fun I can't help but love it. Starro is easily the best part of this story. I didn't think I would ever find myself saying that, especially when he sounds like a rock-obsessed high school kid who's just excited to be invited to the party.....but sh*t, if I didn't know that starfish can regrow their limbs I'd have shed a tear for the guy this last issue.
Definitely looking forward to the final issue and the regular book that'll follow. I haven't enjoyed the League this much in years.
