With their headquarters destroyed and the team disbanded, a desperate group of former Leaguers gather for one last time to honour their legacy and to say goodbye to a fallen friend. But the reappearance of an old enemy reminds some in attendance that the League's mission must not end - though with multiple crises converging across the galaxy, and Earth's mightiest heroes off-world, can there be a future for the JLA as we know it...?

World Without a Justice League continues the Infinite Crisis thread that has woven its way throughout the DC universe. While it does (just about) work as a standalone tale, you'll get far more out of this collection if you are up to speed on the events that have gone before.

As the events of the infinite crisis rage on, Batman has left the league, Wonder Woman is on trial for murder and Superman is in self-imposed exile. As Green Arrow and a host of other heroes try to keep the dying embers of the JLA alight, the world's super-villains run riot.

The story and art work are well above average for what has got to be one of the most stretched out plotlines in the history of comics. While I'm not disputing how clever the whole idea is, I have to admit to getting a little tired of the same basic story being revisited time and time again.

If you've been following the Infinite Crisis story line, then this will add another piece to the puzzle.
