I really wish that there were half-star options because I really wanted to give this book a 4.5 star rating. It was better than "I really liked it" but just a tiny portion below "It was amazing." So I rounded up and gave it a 5 star approval.

The Avengers stories have always been so tricky to do because you have iconic individual heroes and in putting them together can create an expectation so high, it becomes nearly impossible to achieve. DC's Justice League runs into the same dilemma. What made this volume so compelling wasn't the unity required to fend off some great foe against global destruction...no, it was the numerous interpersonal story-lines of multiple characters...and in turn, how they dealt with becoming a new Avengers team in the meanwhile.

I loved it.
