JLA: Rock of Ages (Comic Book) | comment |
Rock of Ages is a six-part arc in JLA (1997), written by Grant Morrison, and mostly drawn by Howard Porter, with artists Cary Frank and Greg Land filling in the last part. It was Morrison's first major arc for their run in the title, as it lays down the seeds for their future storylines.After the founding of the new iteration of the Justice League in issue #1, someone is planning to destroy the superteam from outside and from within. With the help of a strange artifact called the "Worlogog", Lex Luthor assembles a new, deadly Injustice Gang, preparing an attack on their JLA nemeses on fronts both personal and moral.The arc officially occurs in issues #10-15, but an epilogue in issue #9 shows the release of the Revenge Squad, kicking off the events of part 1. | |

Extremely Short Timespan: Starting with issue #12, when Superman and Martian Manhunter meet Batman, then going into the last page of issue #14 and practically the whole action scene of issue #15, the JLA fights the Injustice Gang in mere four minutes - the time for a giant rock to collide with the Injustice Gang's satellite, and the time for the nukes to detonate at the JLA Watchtower. | |

Even Evil Has Standards | |
JLA: Rock of Ages (Comic Book) / int_319e4a2f | comment |
Even Evil Has Standards: During the Injustice Gang's attack on Star City, several people (including children) were killed. After the Joker reveals he rigged the coffins of the children with explosives, Luthor backhands him and expresses regret over their deaths. During the Joker's J'onn-induced "My God, What Have I Done?" moment, he manipulates the Joker into resurrecting those killed with the Worlogog and Superman sees through Luthor's reasoning of simply avoiding murder charges to realize that Luthor felt guilty. In the same arc, Mirror Master claimed to not have killed anyone during the attack. | |

The next issue, Superman briefly mentions they dealt with the Godwave, then goes back to the pressing matter at hand: JLA's evil holograms. | |

Snipe Hunt: Of a sort. In issue #11, New God Metron or someone impersonating him appears in the Watchtower and sends Aquaman, Flash and Green Lantern to the far edges of the universe, in search of the Philosopher's Stone (a.k.a., the Worlogog), before it falls in the wrong hands. As the real Metron reveals to Hourman in a prologue in issue #15, it has indeed fallen in the wrong hands: Luthor's. This means the false Metron had sent the heroes in a failed mission. | |

Foreshadowing: Many for future storylines: In issue #12, during Flash, Aquaman and Green Lantern's temporary sojourn in the Wonderworld, one of their members mentions "the Anti-Sun" and the "armies of men". This will come into play in World War III. In issue #15, Metron's last words to the present time Justice League are "Prepare for the fortification of Earth". This is a nod to Morrison's World War III. Also in issue #15, in an epilogue, Metron convenes with Hourman and a mysterious person who says he will prepare the "Justice Legion A" for time travel. This is Superman from the 853rd century, which will appear in the future Crisis Crossover DC One Million. | |

JLA: Rock of Ages (Comic Book) / int_ca7ec334 | comment |
Two Lines, No Waiting: The gist of the arc is the Injustice Gang's attempt to destroy the JLA. However, beginning with part 3, there is a subplot about Green Lantern, Flash and Aquaman travelling through space and to the future, then dealing with a world ruled over by Darkseid. Finally, part six closes the main plot, while also giving closure to the Darkseid subplot and how it fits with the rest of the storyline. | |

Screw This, I'm Outta Here | |
JLA: Rock of Ages (Comic Book) / int_d9cf40fa | comment |
Screw This, I'm Outta Here: In issue #15, Ocean Master jumps ship... er, satellite and leaves the rest of the Injustice Gang to be dealt with by the JLA members. He has a change of heart and joins the fray to fend off the JLAers. | |

Sixth Ranger | |
JLA: Rock of Ages (Comic Book) / int_dabc7a46 | comment |
Sixth Ranger: Connor Hawke aka Green Arrow II. Ironically, like the original Green Ranger, he quits the team at the end of the storyline. | |

Legion of Doom | |
JLA: Rock of Ages (Comic Book) / int_dcb2305f | comment |
Legion of Doom: The Injustice Gang serves as the primary antagonists until Darkseid shows up. As the League has been returned to a "back-to-basics" approach the Gang similarly institutes an "arch-enemies only" rule amongst its membership. The new Injustice Gang and their counterparts are: Lex Luthor (Superman) The Joker (Batman) Circe (Wonder Woman) Mirror Master (The Flash) Doctor Light (Green Lantern) Ocean Master (Aquaman) Son of Saturn (Martian Manhunter) | |

Bad Future | |
JLA: Rock of Ages (Comic Book) / int_deb39de3 | comment |
Bad Future: When Superman destroys the Worlogog (Luthor's red stone), unaware of its true nature, this somehow leads to Darkseid coming and taking over Earth 15 years later. | |

The Mole | |
JLA: Rock of Ages (Comic Book) / int_e70127 | comment |
The Mole: Batman has three in Luthor's Injustice Gang's roster: the Mirror Master, via outbidding Luthor; Green Arrow, who feigns defection after a meeting with Circe; and Plastic Man, who captures and impersonates the Joker. | |

Divide and Conquer | |
JLA: Rock of Ages (Comic Book) / int_e7bfdba | comment |
Divide and Conquer: The second part of Luthor's plan: separate the Justice League and take out their members by groups: Superman and Martian Manhunter ("the figureheads") fall into a trap in Injustice Gang's hard light satellite. Circe goes after the "hotshots", Green Arrow (Connor Hawke, Oliver Queen's son) and Green Lantern (Kyle Rayner). | |

Chromosome Casting | |
JLA: Rock of Ages (Comic Book) / int_ffb79066 | comment |
Chromosome Casting: Barring Argent, Azteka and Wonder Woman in the Bad Future segment, the Justice League is all male this time around. Strangely enough, Circe, Wonder Woman's nemesis, is a major character, but the Amazon is nowhere to be seen during the arc. In the case of Diana in the present, this is justified as the events of Neron killing her and the Gods resurrecting her as the Goddess of Truth were happening at the same time. | |
