Titled "Moving Day," this issue concerns the League members moving into their American, Russian, and French "embassies," a series of headquarterses to be networked by teleporter technology.

This was the first JLI story with no real super-fights in it. The JLI era would feature more "low-budget" stories like this--though not so many as people remember.

In the spirit of the end of the Cold War and the triumph of global capitalism, we begin with some blatant product placement.

I didn't want to do another Avengers book, and I didn't want it to be an Ultimates book that was like the Ultimates from the turn of the millennium. It's a very different time and so the best way that I could honor that, I thought, was to change whatever I felt needed to be changed and try to make it of this moment, as you said. And Jon [Hickman] had done a lot of the groundwork for that, this sense of disappointment, the sense that something had been taken from from us, and put in the superhero vernacular -- the superpower vernacular. That was all really good and I wanted to, if anything, magnify that. -- Deniz Camp
