The new Justice League series is due to hit the shelves next week. Up until now details for the first story arc have been vague. Last week, the creative team behind the new comic series Geoff Johns and Jim Lee announced who the new team will be squaring off against.
“On Friday, writer Geoff Johns and artist Jim Lee appeared together on Sirius XM’s “Geek Time” to discuss the launch of DC Comics-The New 52 and their first ever collaboration — JUSTICE LEAGUE. During the interview, they revealed the identity of the series’ first villain. What threat is so big that it brings together the team for the first time? If you don’t want to know who it is just yet, then whatever you do, don’t click after the jump (major spoiler alert!).
In the first story arc of JUSTICE LEAGUE, the villain needs no introduction: Darkseid.”
This is big news for this first issue. Darkseid is one of the baddest of the bad in the DC Universe. Before the reboot of their line, Darkseid was apparently killed by Batman just before being killed himself. But we all know that Batman always has a plan, and he managed to return from the grave. Darkseid didn’t appear to be as lucky.
Justice League #1 will be released August 31.
About Bryan Brown
The Nerd – Or Bryan as many of us call him is the creative inspiration of Word of the Nerd. His tireless work makes all this possible. He rules with an iron fist…not really…he’s a great boss and even better leader. He can often be found lurking over our shoulders or in his local comic book store. Bryan is an all around nerd, from Star Trek to comic books to collecting action figures. If it's nerd related, he's into it or at least has an opinion on it..
