Lock Jaw Reviews The New 52

Justice League #1

SPOILER: show
The story takes place "Five Years Ago". It seems as if superheroes are pretty new and people don't trust them yet.

Batman runs around being chased by the police, while chasing somebody. Green Lantern shows up and behaves like an arrogant smug asshole, while Batman acts like a gritty arrogant superior asshole. Seems like the first time they have ever met. Batman naturally owns Green Lantern in like two seconds with a feat that would have been impossible in the old DC Universe.

Then they decide to go fight Superman because he is an alien.

All in all, pretty terrible debut for this new universe.

Also, not sure how this "Five years" thing is going to work. Because five years is a short time for in the present having all the history of Green Lantern and Batman intact. Batman averaging around a Robin a year or something.
