JUSTICE LEAGUE # 23 Spoilers

SPOILERS UP for JUSTICE LEAGUE # 23 by Geoff Johns and Ivan Reis and Joe Prado

I was wrong. So wrong in subscribing to the theory that SUPERMAN was replaced. Anyway I loved the latest issue of JUSTICE LEAGUE as it's the final leg of TRINITY WAR and the major reveal of who's really responsible for all this commotion.


10. Heroic Pandemonium

With the exception of Batman and Constantine, looks like the corrupting influence of Pandora's Box has seeped into the heads of the members of the three Justice League teams and it's giving us page after page of awesome fights. One of the best was when a really weakened Superman threatens to kill Batman after thinking that Wonder Woman will go for the Dark Knight if ever he dies. I'm also citing this as the number 1 silliest thing from the entire TRINITY WAR crossover.

9. ATOM revealed as TRAITOR

Wait, hold up, we already know that the female ATOM is the traitor right? Well the answer is partly yes and partly no. Yes she's a traitor and a mole but not for either the Justice League or the Justice League of America. She's been working undercover for The Crime Syndicate.

Meet GRID

It's next to impossible to take down Cyborg except if you separate his tech half from his human half; something that Atom (really Earth 3's ATOMIKA) exploited the moment she reveals GRID, a virus that's been inside Vic Stone for years now.

The Butler Did It

Yes, apparently the reason why the ring was easily stolen inside the Batcave was because it was the evil version of Alfred Pennyworth that did it together with Atomika.

Owlman (Thomas Wayne) and evil Alfred Pennyworth

Putting a Sliver of Kryptonite

That's easily one of the easiest thing you could do to take down Superman. And because of Atom's kryptonite to the brain trick, the Heat Vision surged which also cost them the life of Dr. Light.

A Dead Aquaman

Bad ass as he may be, he's actually dead already.

Imagine my surprise when we first see the Earth 3 version of Aquaman emerge from the portal that came from Pandora's Box

The Mystery Man

Who could this mystery man?? Why is he so important that the Syndicate needs to bring him/her along. Clues, probably are in FOREVER EVIL.

THE CRIME SYNDICATE!

Our first look at the CRIME SYNDICATE of EARTH 3. Nuff said.

Damn! Now we move on to FOREVER EVIL! 

Justice League # 20 Spoilers

The Atom-centric storyline closes the Despero arc but leaves us more questions instead of answers and it's all thanks to Geoff Johns and Gene Ha.

Spoilers up from Justice League # 19 by Geoff Johns, Ivan Reis and Joe Prado.

Spoilers after the cut...

Ivan Reis and Joe Prado to Take on Justice League

With Jim Lee leaving "Justice League" for another new secret project for DC Comics, Ivan Reis and Joe Prado are stepping up to the plate and delivering art starting with Justice League # 15.

Aquaman Actually Killed Black Manta's Dad in Aquaman # 10

Aquaman # 10 really did prove that Aquaman murdered Black Manta's father which was the second part of their lifelong feud.

Ivan Reis and Joe Prado do the Variant Cover for Earth 2 # 1

Here's a quick look at Ivan Reis and Joe Prado's variant cover for Earth 2 # 1 which will be written by James Robinson and art by Nicola Scott.

The cover is a re-envisioning of sorts for what has transpired in the current story arc for Justice League minus of course the other characters and retaining only the DC big three which are Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman. 

So this is going to look like a great looking book together with Batman Inc. which will be again written by Grant Morrison and his old posse.
