DC ’s latestJustice Leagueannouncement sent shockwaves through the comical Quran industry as the publisher revealedthe intact team will give out inJustice League # 75 . The company ’s premiere superhero team , currently consisting of their most famous A - list superheroes ( Superman , Batman , Wonder Woman , etc ) is slated to match their end in the turning point issue against a " dark army . " However , the Justice League ’s true enemy in this illustration is DC Comics itself , and their despairing desire to replay the greatest hits of their past without their associated substance .
Coinciding with longtime comic al-Qur’an writerBrian Michael Bendis stepping off from the title , the new Justice League plot line will see a unexampled team , helmed by author Joshua Williamson along with Rafa Sandoval and Alejandro Sánchez , take over storytelling duty forDeath of the Justice League . “The Justice League gets call in to fight this Dark Army that ’s been building on the bound of the multiverse .

demise no longer holds any signification in comics . persona return from the dead with alarming regularity - even multiple time - and as of 2022 , nearly every major DC theatrical role has join the Choir Invisible only to return to give-up the ghost another day . Case in percentage point : every single member of the Justice League has perish at least once ( Wonder Woman ’s decease five timesand that ’s considered alownumber of end in cartoon strip ) and the time between death and Christ’s Resurrection is always remarkably short , usually no longer than a twelvemonth .

The Death of Supermanstoryline was effective for multiple reasons . Publishers merely did n’t bolt down their major characters back then , let alone devote entire narration arcs to their deaths . On top of that , most of the story took placeafterSuperman ’s demise , with the full creation in a state of bereavement and four Superman pretenders come up in his absence . But the tangible reasonforThe Death of Superman’sreceptionwas Superman himself . Superman is arguablythemost renowned superhero in the world , and his death made headline news around the world . What work for Superman will not inevitably do work for the entire Justice League .

New characters , such as Superman ’s boy Jonathan Kent , produce newfangled storytelling opportunities and are more welcomed overall than a story about theJustice League’sdeath - which will almost certainly be undone within a class .
