Wow…I almost forgot that it was Ray and Connor who killed Darkseid in this issue. So the Search for Ray Palmer is so that he could give Darkseid a lobotomy… makes sense. 😀
The Connor Green Arrow’s “Sheyeah, we’re gonna die!” from this issue is still one of my favorite moments of Morrison’s whole run. Starlin’s got a tough row to hoe in topping that.
I didn’t really discover DC til I was 19, a few months before Morrison’s JLA launched (I think my first DC purchases were the opening chapter of the Flash story “Race Against Time–#113? and the concurrent issue of LSH). Consequently, this issue was the first time I looked at the Atom and saw more than a smart guy who could shrink. He quickly got to be one of my favorite DC characters, and it’s neat to see them making his return a big deal. I just hope it doesn’t result in Ryan Choi getting shitcanned–I like him almost as much (and certainly more than the new Question, Ray or Aquaman).
