Description
The highly anticipated New York Times best-selling Justice League defines the status of the DC Universe following a line-wide relaunch of every title and is written by DC Entertainment Chief Creative Officer Geoff Johns and illustrated by DC Comics co-Publisher Jim Lee.
A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
In a world where inexperienced superheroes operate under a cloud of suspicion from the public, loner vigilante Batman has stumbled upon a dark evil that threatens to destroy the earth as we know it. Now, faced with a threat far beyond anything he can handle on his own, the Dark Knight must trust an alien, a scarlet speedster, an accidental teenage hero, a space cop, an Amazon Princess and an undersea monarch. Will this combination of Superman, The Flash, Cyborg, Green Lantern, Wonder Woman and Aquaman be able to put aside their differences and come together to save the world? Or will they destroy each other first?
As a part of the monumental DC Comics' The New 52 event, comics superstars Geoff Johns and Jim Lee bring you an all-new origin story for the Justice League! This powerhouse creative team re-imagines the classic heroes of the DC Universe for the 21st century. This volume collects issues #1-6 of Justice League.
This indelible recasting of the World's Greatest Heroes has only grown in stature as the years have worn on, with fans everywhere gaining a greater and greater appreciation for this masterwork in the genre. Justice League Vol. 1: Origin has come to be emblematic of the word "Essential".
