Break Downs Part 14
"Presenting: THE ALL NEW EXTREMISTS!"
This is the last JLE issue by this create team. There is one more JLA after this, then both books have new creative teams. And I think they are different writers for both books.
This really felt like a conclusion, and I guess it was, for JLE. The New Extremists (controlled by Dreamslayer) attack the JLA. The JLA doesn't like to fight against their friends (or their friends' bodies), but they do the best they can without actually trying to kill or hurt them. At the same time, the Silver Sorceress lies dying on a KooeyKooeyKooey beach. Dreamslayer has mortally injured her, and has slated half the inhabitants of the island. He doesn't need them anymore, he has the JLA.
Silver Sorceress apparently has the power for one last spell. She conjures the old Extremists to go attack Dreamslayer. She convinces Dreamslayer to leave Max's body, and draws him into her mind, where she can defeat him just prior to her death. Once Dreamslayer is dead, all the JLA is restored, including Max Lord (do they wonder why they are dressed in KooeyKooeyKooey-ian native garb?).
There is a touching funeral for the Sorceress on the island. The natives want to honor her for saving them (or at least half of them). Max is real eased from the hospital in New York (not quite sure how he got there), and dwells upon what he did while possessed by Dreamslayer.
What will happen to the Justice League now? The votes are being counted, and we should learn the new line up soon. I hope Booster and Beetle are both back. I <3 Beetle and Booster!
