The Justice League have always seemed like gods amongst men in the DC Universe, a pantheon of the most powerful heroes that the world has to offer. Now, the men and women of the Justice League are literally gods, a side effect of the events of “Darkseid War.” In Justice League #46, our heroes have been imbued with incredible power, and they’re going to need every ounce of it for what’s ahead. In the meantime, though, Wonder Woman, Mister Miracle, Cyborg, Power Ring, and others are doing righteous battle with Kanto and the forces of Apokolips. With “Darkseid War,” Geoff Johns has proved once again why he is one of the best in the business for sweeping event series, and Francis Manapul’s artwork lends the story a mythic quality that the story deserves. You can see exactly what’s coming down the pipeline in our exclusive preview of Justice League #46.
And don’t even get me started on that Looney Tunes variant cover. Now I just want an animated series starring Bugs Bunny and the gang as DC’s finest. Take a look for yourself in our exclusive gallery below.
Here is the official synopsis:
