When DC Comics originally announced that their New 52 Justice League of America series would be cancelled after Forever Evil #7, they indicated that a new series called Justice League of Canada would replace it. However, when the solicitation came, the series was called Justice League United, but would feature the Justice League of Canada who would also go on cosmic adventures when not in Northern Ontario or Toronto.
However, despite not wanting to put CANADA on the book’s cover ongoing, the variant for Justice League United #1 will feature a Justice League Canada (no “of” anymore in the title) logo.
The new series kicks off despite the last issue of Forever Justice League of America #14, a few other series, and Forever Evil #7 being delayed into May 2014. So, while these events take place after those issues, Justice League United hits stands before those issues with this week’s Justice League United #0. The preview for that issue has hit stands and is below.
SPOILERS follow for Justice League United #0.
As a refresher, let me get you caught up on a few items and mysteries that need to be wrapped-up in Forever Evil #7:
- In Forever Evil #6 we learned who was the Earth 3 hooded prisoner of the Crime Syndicate after going through the key candidates. There appears to be more than meets the eye related to this reveal. Stay tuned.
-
Nightwing’s fate was sorta shown in Forever Evil #6, but there’s clearly to all this as we chronicled the scenarios for. I can say with the certainty that despite the solicit for Forever Evil #6, the final fate of NightwingRichard “Dick” Grayson really comes in Forever Evil #7. - Who or what is the Earth 3 Destroyer entity? We may have already gotten our first look at the entity, but it didn’t help narrow down the list of candidates we’ve explored.
- What is the post Forever Evil #7 fate of the Crime Syndicate? They’ve had 50% of the Earth 3 members killed. It really does appear that Lex Luthor may have more of a role in this than we thought.
- How does Forever Evil link to exponentially expanded The New 52: Futures End as the most viable possibility is likely right under our collective noses?
- How does the below-the-radar return of one DC Comics current Top 10 time anomalies in the New 52 play into the Forever Evil finale and Futures End launch?
- What is After Forever?
Thanks for reading. All feedback welcome.
