Justice League Europe #33

Break Downs, Part 10

This issue feels fat.  It doesn't say it is an extra long issue, but it feels pretty big.  On the cover, Lobo is fighting Despero.  Blue Beetle, Flash, Fire and J'onn are all looking on.  If J'onn's weakness is Fire, how can he deal with Fire?  I never thought of that before.  Hmmmm.

Despero is ripping up Times Square, yelling for the Justice League to come out.  In fact, he is ripping apart DC Comics.  How meta.  Guy is sent ahead to try to contain Despero while the other fly in on the Beetle.  Despero is getting pretty good at taking them out.  Guy is just coming to from a big punch when Lobo shows up.  It might be a fight, but then Lobo says he has come for Despero.  Then we see the whole JLA flying away from Times Square, with J'onn calling someone a fool.  

Next page, Sonic the Hedgehog.  That explains the "thickness" of the comic.  A 16-page Sonic the Hedgehog comic in the middle of JLA.  That is longer than a lot of JLA stories now!  

It turns out that it was Major Disaster that J'onn was calling a fool.  Apparently, his powers are not that much under control.  He destroyed Times Square instead of making a diversion.  But L'Ron thinks he can rebuild the master control unit that will work Despero's thought control collar.  He gets Kilowog to help him.  Booster sees the news, and decides he needs to help the Justice League.  And finally, something is going on with Max on KooeyKooeyKooey.
