I thought the opening 6 issues of the series were fine. From there, we had a cast of hundreds making the final resolution seem a bit rushed. Still, I might like it more when read as a trade.

I agree JSA #11 felt like half a comic. Although there were a few elements I liked, my overall reactions was "that's it?"

It actually felt like a shitty wrap up of a forgettable storyline.

Disappointed in this iteration doesn't even come close to summing up my feelings. But at least I got to see a Legion.

Yeah, that's how I felt too.

I wasn't really expecting any Legion content in it, but I figured it would at least wrap up the remaining plotlines of the Lost Children and Villain Reform storylines, but, no, just an issue long tribute to Stargirl/Johns's sister.

About as underwhelming an end to an underwhelming series as one could imagine.

Yeah I was disappointed too. Even forgetting the Legion bits that wasn't, this did nothing to wrap up the the series. Maybe more like a "farewell - this is probably the last thing I write for DC"? Still not satisfying.
