Season 3 of the show is in full gear and there is a brand new ongoing hitting the shops every month. It’s never been a better time to be a Young Justice fan!
So let’s go back shall we?
This week the club is going to be checking out Young Justice (1998) Issues 1-7.
Discussion kicks off this Friday (January 25) at 5PM EST and lasts all weekend! Feel free to leave spoiler free thoughts/impressions throughout the week!

Just recently went through a whole bunch of that book because I picked up the trades in digital trade form on sale a while back. So I already read a bunch of these not too long ago. Fun stuff!
I work super early, so I fell asleep before I got to start Issue #2 but it definitely looks like a comic that doesn’t take itself too serious. This is going to be FUN!
Just a word of warning. Issue 4 of Young Justice continues in to Young Justice Secret Files #1, which is not on the service. Also, if this is your first time reading the series, you really need to read Young Justice: The Secret #1 followed by JLA: World Without Grownups prior to reading Young Justice #1 (I would say The Secret is a definite must read, JLA not so much) Both of those are on DCU.
Arrgh I wish there was an edit option. I should clarify that JLA: World Without Grownups is a good story but I mean its impact to understanding what is going on with the Young Justice title is not as important as The Secret.
Yeah, Like I said, I’ve been reading it via digital trades I got on sale on Comixology a while back, and it’s kind of funny just how few issues of the regular series there are in it.
One of the things Im really liking about Young Justice, from 1998, i’ve been reading alot of serious books between The Long Halloween, Dark Victory , And Other Batman. This is all fun and about them joking with each other. Lots of throw back media jokes from yesteryear. And Leather Jacket Superboy has always been my Superboy and to see him come back in Brian Michael Bendis’s current Young Justice. Its pretty cool looking back at the team and the high jinx with Impulse who. I think I relate to Impulse the most . Issue 4 and 5 Had Secret and Harm who were also in Young Justice Animated Episode 18 “Secrets” , but conclusion is way more darker in the comic . Then the Halloween Party issue #3 with Mr myxlplyx was Fun. But Over all what keeps me turning the page is the simple stuff like the gang sitting in front of the fire and hanging out, its a change of pace from just reading the fights.
