funny, i didn't hear complaining about the jlakmc when one of its founders was UBER-kind enough to post the entire issue of IC7 . . .
val, you're gathering fanboys faster than a certain hairy-clawed canuck! (and no, smart-arse, i DON'T mean me . . .) 😛
as for the issue -- i just picked it up and thought it was great. someone a ways back mentioned superman beating sbp as 'too much'. not sure why. both seemed to have SOME power left, but neither was even close to full power. closer to simple humans, imo. without powers, supes is still a man fighting a crazy kid. supes SHOULD have won that fight.
some things i was surprised at and some random thoughts. comments on some or all welcome!!
1. joker's appearance. didn't see much of him at all throughout. not sure i loved how he came out of nowhere. and where was old lex hold up the whole time?
2. black adam ripping amazo's head off was UBER impressive . . .
3. who did bane kill on pg4?
4. kal-l . . . CATCHING dd's fist???? hmmm . . . not sure about that one . . .
5. kal-l ko'ing ZOOM!! damn, kal-l is fast . . .
6. bart doing the best of anyone against sbp. respect bart!!
7. what happened to captain atom?? why didn't he know where he was?
8. sbp running through a 300 mile thick wal of gl willpower!!!! cripes . . . then killing x-amount of the corps!! someone in some other thread said sbp was the most overrated villain ever. ARE YOU FRIGGIN' KIDDING ME???? even hal was about to get offed!! sbp's power was incredible. i agree with what someone wlse said though -- he did come across as a whiner, and annoying at that. to be a great villain, his character will need some developing.
just some random thoughts. i thought on the whole the series was fantastic and i'm glad i came out of retirement to pick it up! if not for the forum, i'd never have known about it. 😉

Android, has the powers of the JLA. Very Golden-Age-type villain. His powers vary. When he was activated in Gotham, he didn't have Green Lantern, Plastic Man, Aquaman, or Wonder Woman. I think they once actually beat him by temporarily disbanding the JLA.
Judoman? DC had a character named Judoman? Huh. Well, good for Bane. I completely support using crossover events as an excuse to get rid of some of DC's useless second-stringers.

all at the same time? So its like WW, Superman, MM, Flash, and blah whoever else at the time.....any limits or is it all of them? cuz thats.....like Duplicate Boyand wait...ONLY jla?? ima have the wiki this.....
As I said, it depends. There are different models, or ... something.
The problem with Amazo, as I said, is that he is, fundamentally, a Silver Age villain (no, I didn't say "golden age." Shut up). Back then, nobody would care. He got his power because of ... uh ... absoption cells, and he knows whose on the JLA because ... uh ... science? It's really no more dumn than the other villains of that time period, I guess.
