Laws. It%27s got it%27s moments of angst%2C sadness%2C and some self-pitying heroes%2C but in the end Robin%27s version of the Freedom Phalanx pretty much blows away those mooks who%27ve been calling themselves the Justice League these days.%0D%0A%0D%0AGreat book.

Honestly%2C the novel%27s version of things makes for a group of superheroes%2C as opposed to pansies in spandex. Then again%2C having one author doing your entire novel as opposed to a new set of people doing your comics every few issues probably helps there.%0D%0A%0D%0A
