Review – JSA #10: From Here to Eternity

JSA #10 cover, via DC Comics. Ray: Jeff Lemire has been building a really compelling new era for the JSA since this run began, fusing the classic era with the next generation and bringing the Infinity Inc crew back to the fore. But it's been a run that plays for keeps – with a sinister alliance of the JSA's arch-enemies infiltrating the team from within, neutralizing several members, replacing Obsidian with an impostor, and even killing off Wildcat. But now it's all on the table, as Johnny Sorrow has revealed himsef to his 'teammates' and is preparing the final attack on the members who are still standing. And Wotan continues his search for the Spear of Destiny, locked away by Hawkman ages ago. There are some interesting rifts within the villains, though – Ruby, the daughter of the original Red Lantern, seems to have slightly more noble motivations for joining up with this nasty crew than you might think. Lost beyond. Via DC Comics. But the most exciting characters in this issue are…the ones who are already dead. We've been following Wildcat since he lost his last life and headed down to the afterlife – where he was met with countless other figures from the past of the JSA. But there's one character who doesn't seem to belong there – a young woman who is the new Kid Eternity. What's her story? How did she wind up with these powers? She's as confused as anyone else, and she follows the older heroes to a mysterious figure who lays out the history of this mantle – with some surprising faces from the past appearing. I've always been a fan of this very strange character, who has made appearances everywhere from the Teen Titans to Vertigo, and this new incarnation has a lot of promise. With subplots spanning multiple different realms, this is one of the biggest-scale stories we've seen in the JSA franchise in a while, even eclipsing Johns's last run.
