All Star Superman may be Grant Morrison at his best. The metatext and whacked out ideas are still there, but, unlike some of his other work, they take a back seat to the story. It's bright, primary-colored fun; silver-agey without feeling dated.
As far as I'm concerned Justice is All Star Justice League. It meets all of the criteria for an All Star book: A legendary character (or group) in it's most iconic form, done by a big name creator, that comes out sporadically.
Why, oh why can't Teen Titans come out on time? I gave Johns a pass when the book was late during Infinite Crisis, but this book is now a full 6 weeks behind schedule since the OYL jump. Combine this with Green Lantern being almost 10 weeks off since then and I may have to place Johns in the 'unable to keep a schedule' pile.
While not as off-putting as the constant delays other books suffer from, the constantly changing art teams on X-Factor prevents it from being great.
I loves me some Battlestar Galactica!
