DC’s Heroes Join Forces in JUSTICE LEAGUE REBIRTH #1 Out This Week
DC’s comic book universe reboot is officially in full swing. Pretty much all the heavy-hitters have had their chance to shine individually and now, in true DC form, they are all set to unite to face a great evil that can only be pummeled when they all work together. Enter JUSTICE LEAGUE REBIRTH #1.
Spinning out of the events of DC UNIVERSE: REBIRTH #1, a new day dawns for Earth’s greatest heroes as they welcome three new members to the team, including… Superman? Who is this strange visitor from a dead world – and can he be trusted? Batman and Wonder Woman aren’t so sure.
I must admit, being out of the whole SUPERMAN loop in comics for some time now, that Superman is the most confusing hero to grasp within the new “Rebirth” reboot. I’m sure loyalists can explain it to me, but there seems to be too many dead and/or alive versions of old Clark that are from seemingly different “Earths” and/or timelines. I just want my morning biscuit eating farm boy from Smallville gosh darnit! I mean I know who Superman IS, I just don’t know who the hell is wearing the cape these days. Since this “Rebirth” initiative has been pretty solid so far, I’m sure I’ll figure it out soon enough as I keep reading. I hope.
Now that SUPERMAN, BATMAN, WONDER WOMAN, GREEN ARROW, THE FLASH, AQUAMAN, the GREEN LANTERNS, and the TITANS have all had at least one #1 issue in this new reboot to set the stage, it’s time for a good old fashion JUSTICE LEAGUE team-up and that’s pretty exciting. It will be great to see these new (ish) versions of everyone team-up and work together. And maybe, just maybe shed some light on who this new (old?) Superman is and how he plays with others. It’s exciting times to be a DC Comics fan and it’s still not too late to jump on the newest train and get up to speed! I call myself a “Marvel” guy normally and even I’m all excited about DC again…maybe even more than what Marvel is currently putting out! Blasphemy!
You will get to see BATMAN, SUPERMAN, and WONDER WOMAN side by side again as JUSTICE LEAGUE REBIRTH #1 lands this week!
