Can I start with this issue or do I need to know something?: I don't think there's anything that you won't be able to understand if this is your first comic ever.
What is it about?At the beginning of issue #1 we have an existing Justice League consisting of: Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Flash (Wally West), Green Lantern (Kyle Rayner), and the Martian Manhunter.
The story starts with a group of 8 aliens arriving to earth, claiming that they can fix all human problems (famine, deforestation, corruption... you get the idea. All humans cheer and welcome this alien group commanded by Protex, but Superman is suspicious about the price or effects that those fixes will have.
Meanwhile, a space station is being attacked. Green Lantern, Wonder Woman and Metamorpho are onboard (with 3 other characters I'm not familiar with) and escape just barely.
For a first issue we didn't get much information, of course we get a cliffhanger. So, I would rather get the paperback edition to get more of the story at once. Can't really judge the story so far. The illustration style is something I don't really like, it looks dated... kinda clustered. Superman has long hair, Green Lantern has a very 90's outfit and Batman has long/pointy nails... So far, I'm not crazy about this.
