"Earth 2 is a flawless example of a modern superhero story that forces you to think, while satisfying your urges to watch the bad guys get thoroughly pounded."—Complex Magazine "The best that a comic book can be."—Kevin Smith"There is no question that Grant Morrison has written a number of classic runs and that his professional résumé is somewhat staggering, but many superhero fans will point to his tenure on JLA as one of his best."—Newsarama "Morrison established himself as a mainstream superhero writer with a blockbuster run on JLA."—Rolling Stone
