Exterminators (31)

This is another Justice Leagues book that takes comic book characters and puts them in novel form. I have a love hate relationship with these books. It gives you more depth than a comic book you get more into the heros feelings and motivations. But in the end the stories largely describe action and are not very deep. There is the great threat... the great battle.. then it is over... I like a little more understanding of the problems and solution.
In the book they get dozens of minor characters involved, many of which I have never heard of... the switch from battle to battle where people I dont know are fighting the monsters...
The book was o.k. but I guess not really my style. So far I read Batman (good), which is what got me into the series, then Flash (poor), next was Wonder Woman (ok). There are 2 more books in this series.. Superman and Green Lantern... I will get through those and I can say I read the series. Maybe they will be better?
