This week, we're going back to our earliest days and the place where it all began, Justice League. Its time to finally reassess an old friend and see if it gets any better when its in the present day and building up a new villain and Jim Lee's scheduling is bringing in an infinite number of inkers, colourists and fill-in pencillers for pages at a time. But maybe it won't, and maybe it'll be a chance to fix its placement on the rankings. Either way, its Justice League vol 2, The Villain's Journey by Geoff Johns, Jim Lee and Gene Ha with additional pencils by Carlos D'Anda, Ivan Reis, David Finch and Ethan Van Sciver and colours by Alex Sinclair, Art Lyon, Gabe Eltaeb, Pete Pantazis, Hi-Fi, Sonia Oback and Tony Avina.
