In the Dark

[arbre_rieur]

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.

That's quite a classy Zatanna!
But she's speaking normal reversed magie again EKIL SIHT?
I prefer when the whole sentences are reversed, like how Paul Dini's been portrayed her these past 10+years... NOINIPO YM NI RETTEB TOL ELOHW A S'TI!

Though I'd have preferred a more Shadowpact-y team than this Vertigo-inspired team. (but that's just a personal taste)

I have another Enchantress story to post soonish.

I got this one on a whim, and it made a welcome contrast to Firestorm. I have no idea where either story is headed, but where the former was confusing, this was intriguing. It makes me want to read more, and that's a Good Thing.

It's interesting that the titles I've seen that I like best in the NuDC are the darker/supernatural ones. Demon Knights, Animal Man, Swamp Thing, this, and Wonder Woman's new direction. Blue Beetle is the outlier, being a lot closer to traditional superhero stuff.

Really makes me wonder if I should pick up All Star Western.

Okay, so it's weird, but not Doom Patrol weird. Got it.

This reminds me of the opening of the first issue of Xombi, he could fit well on this team David Kim was awesome and use to fighting magic.

I'm wondering how much of Zee and Batman's past still exists. I liked them here, though I think Zee must have been talking about DC the COMPANY more than the universe when asserting Bruce's importance versus her own. She's been pretty instrumental in saving the universe a few times. Batman is more effective on a local level.
I AM loving both the return of Madame Xanadu's eyes and her status in the new U!

Also, props for remembering that Superman is vulnerable to magic. I haven't seen that nearly as often as the Kryptonite thing.

Zatanna, what? What are you wearing?

HER they give pants? What? WHAT?

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.)

Superman and Batman kind of got outclassed in this comic.

And it's awesome to see!

But, but where are the fishnets?

[introverted_excavator]

The only thing I like about these scans is Zatanna's hair.

"On two farms, cows give birth to mechanical meat slicers."

Um....OW.

I actually enjoyed this book. Has a horror vibe to it as well, which I do hope they stick with.

[drmcninja]

That is some damn fine art. Just everything looks nice, especially Bats and Zatanna. Out of all the redesigns, I actually enjoy Batman's little changes. Its a much better look for him.

[perletwo]

umm....you're the JLA and you know you're going up against a magical threat, why don't you lead with Zatanna...? Especially when you know magic is one of your Flying Brick's major vulnerabilities?

i gotcher fishnets right here

The costume is much less show magician and much more girl on the street, but no arguing how pretty she looks in it.
