And Origin was written by Geoff Johns, who is also a producer on Justice League and is one of the guiding forces behind DC’s slate of films.
Both stories are centered around the Justice League coming together for the first time and realizing that they can accomplish more together than they can apart. Both villains want to conquer Earth and rely on armies of flying parademons to help them. (For more on Apokolips and Darkseid, be sure to read our DC Comics 101 article on the New Gods.)īut other than that, there are plenty of similarities. In the movie, that villain is Steppenwolf, but in the comic, it’s Steppenwolf’s nephew Darkseid-the despotic ruler of Apokolips. And it shares some DNA with the movie in that both of their villains come from the planet Apokolips. This story kicked off the 2011 DC reboot known as The New 52, which means that it was written in part with new fans in mind. 1: Origin if you’re looking to dip into the world of Justice League comics. Put simply, you absolutely CANNOT go wrong with Justice League Vol. Starting with the one that’s probably the most flat-out cinematic, and also happens to have been written by someone greatly involved with the film. So with that, sit back and allow us to recommend a few stories that could serve as the perfect follow up to Justice League. And any one of these could form the basis for a future movie…you never know! The advantage of having so many Justice League comics out there is that there's something in the Justice League's history for everyone, no matter how familiar (or unfamiliar) you might be with the DC Universe. Also, while some of them are great, others aren’t exactly what we’d call “new fan friendly.”īut don't you worry, we're here to help. Especially considering the Justice League has often had more than one comic series running at a time, and some of them feature lineups very different than the one in Zack Snyder’s film. Of course, with so many comics to pull from, it can be a little bit intimidating if you're trying to find the comics that are right for you. The Justice League made their comic book debut back in 1960, which means you have nearly 70 years of comic adventures to quench your thirst for Justice until the League’s next big screen adventure hits theaters (or at least until your second viewing of this one). Well, my friends, you’re in the right place.
You loved it and now find yourself craving more adventures featuring the iconic superteam, only you’re not sure where to start.
