This is my opinion you don't have to agree with it

Everyone should know by now that i love DC comics and i wasn't full supporter of dc reboot but i did get on board with it later on with more info i got.So this week the DCU ends and begins with Flashpoint # 5 and Justice league # 1 both written by Geoff Johns,one of best writers in comic business and the Artist doing the artwork for JL# 1 is Jim Lee who is great artist and one of best in the business.So you would think that these two could make a great comic series and great amont cash for DC.
So the story begins with Swat team trying to kill Batman but Batman gets away from swat team meets mysterious person or alien.Batman pins mysterious person/Alien down whille escaping swat team and asks about what he was doing at the docks. A explosion happens and Green Lantern shows up.For the reboot i guess this is first time Batman and GL ever met each other.I personally did not like GL dialogue but that's probably just me.Back to story swat team fines them in while being in a helicopter attacks GL and Batman while the mysterious monster shows again and blows up helicopter.GL also does fair bit of i got this,i can do this which kinda of annoyed me.So they see monster again track it down to the sewer while GL asks Batman what powers he has and fines out he has none.I found this whole bit dumb but for someone who doesn't know much about Justice League i guess this could help them.Batman feeling he has to show off steals GL ring.So after bit of back and fourth battler they stop when batman sees the monster which fuses a cube to a wall which turns out to Bomb while monster blows up he says "for darkseid".So it's safe bet that this arc Darkseid is going to the villian or show up at sometime which am fine with i like Darkseid.After exoplsion GL and Batman talk about what Darkseid is which kinda annoys me again because i know who he is.Also by saying is Dark side is that band that just annoys me but again for someone who is not familar which Dc comics this won't bother them.So they pick up cube and they think superman might know what it is or plan this but who is superman is he that guy in metropolis.....Really GL are you trying to annoy me almost everything you say somehow annoys me.
So back to story a football game is going on and teen around 16- 19 gets winning touchdown but someone didn't show up who turns out to be his dad.So GL comes in Metropolis in self made jet by using power ring to make a jet.When they land GL traps batman in box with his power ring and talks about how GL going to do things his way like restraining superman and talking in 3rd person but Superman comes in flying into both Batman and GL saying "i Don't handle easy.So what can you do".

The artwork is great Jim Lee does what you would expect.Jim Lee to do great art.I have no complains over the art it's ver well done and best thing is the issue.The Story is hard to judge because it's only first part in the arc and only have around 20 pages to give you good story but i found story somewhat interesting and most likely will pick up issue 2 in the series but i expect story to feel more like JL story and less like what i just read.The pacing is smooth but characters don't feel right especially GL trying to make jokes that didn't work and talk in 3rd person out aloud.All characters feel different which guess what going for but it falls flat.I feel also that comics doesn't repect hardcore Dc fans with bad jokes,characters not acting like they were before the reboot and characters not being aware each other that well.I will have to sadly give
