Comic Book Quote of the Month:
Black Canary: "Speaking as a newcomer, I love the idea of working with more experienced people. It'd almost be like the old Justice Society of America. "
Green Lantern: "That's a thought. We could call ourselves Justice Society II."
Flash: "Uh uh. We need something more contemporary. Catchier. Something like… the Avengers."
Black Canary: "Nah. People would confuse us with the other guys. You know…John Steed and Emma Peel."
