DC Comics Relaunch: Name Only Connection? Adjectiveless Justice League, International & Dark?

News

I had the honor of interviewing Dan Jurgens, the writer on the DC Comics Relaunch title Justice League International, and our first of three interviews is online now.

In responding to a question about the role of the JLI in contrast to other international team books and the other 2 Justice League books (Justice League and Justice League Dark), here is what was heard:

….yes, the JLI’s role was part of the overall planning process for the September slate of books. As for how it will differ from the other JL books, JLA is very much an independent gathering of DC’s greatest heroes. JL Dark is squarely set with a different group of characters and type of story.

Whether I’m reading into this correctly or not, it would appear that the 3 Justice Leagues are connected in name only? Makes sense, but I am intrigued. There may be more to this story.

I’m digging the mysteries created by DC about its new books.

I can’t wait until September.
