In the Dark

Four pages from JUSTICE LEAGUE DARK 1...

The Enchantress has gone crazy (again?), and she's causing all sorts of insanity to erupt across the world.

I was really prepared to hate this, but it ain't bad, really.

I'm still quite puzzled as to how this works with Hellblazer, though I guess John occasionally acknowledges the rest of the DC universe, it's just that he ignores it and does his own thing. (Swamp Thing, Zatanna, and the Phantom Stranger show up in his book from time to time.)

	It's younger John. So it's either parallel to or before most Hellblazer stuff. (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent) (Thread) (Hide 7 comments) (Show 7 comments)

	Milligan said that there are two versions. One's the DCU younger version and the other's Vertigo John who has adventures in Hellblazer. (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent) (Thread) (Hide 5 comments) (Show 5 comments)

	I get it now, but still, overall, the timeline of the entire new DC universe baffles me. (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent) (Thread) (Hide 4 comments) (Show 4 comments)

	Really it's just as confusing as it ever was. The reboot has just unearthed all the inner chaos. (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent) (Thread) (Hide 3 comments) (Show 3 comments)

	I liked how the general policy is usually "let's not talk about it." That seemed to work pretty well for me, anyway. :P (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent) (Thread) (Hide 2 comments) (Show 2 comments)

	I think they're dealing with the meta-issue of a number of writers already having their own ideas and not giving a crap about this "reboot for new readers" thing. (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent) (Thread) (Hide 1 comment) (Show 1 comment)

	The art is definitely not bad, and I'm just relieved to read this after that awful SECRET SEVEN thing, which just felt so damn ugly and cheap. Shade's creepiness here is more in keeping with the one I recall from Milligan before. It was so OFF in SS.I feel like this works so far. But I am willing to cut Milligan a lot of slack, always.
