Art by NEIL EDWARDS and JAY LEISTEN
Cover by ANDREW ROBINSON
HARLEY QUINN Variant cover by MIKEL JANIN

Retailers: This issue will ship with three covers. This issue is also offered as a combo pack edition with a redemption code for a digital download of this issue. Please see the order form for details.

“The Infinitus Saga” continues as the team joins the Legion of Super-Heroes, a Thanagarian war fleet and a Rannian war fleet to battle the endless forces of Infinitus!
I've been taunted for months with the prospect of an Andrew Robinson Alien Atlas cover, and when it finally happens he not only knocks it out of the park, but offers a perfect pairing with the Maid of Might! I love Supergirl, and think she goes great with uncle J'Onn.

I read a couple of these issues, realized the whole arc was spinning wheels as "Forever Evil" played out, and left the remainder of the run sitting in a box without even flipping through them.

I truly love the cover on Justice League United # 9.

I have always thought that J'Onn understood Kara far better than her cousin Kal-El does. Like Kara, J'Onn lost his world and came to know his world -- unlike someone who is psychologically more of a Kansan than a Kryptonian. So, I think that J'Onn makes a good mentor for her.
