In Wake Of Death Of The Justice League, The Jurassic League Fills The Void?!
It looks like this is the second “Justice League” type title (first one here) to satisfy JL cravings due to Death of the Justice League; that doesn’t include a prominent mini-series that now seems set before their death that will conclude months after said “death”.
DC Comics reports.
DEFENDERS OF TRUTH, JUSTICE AND THE PREHISTORIC WAY IN…
THE JURASSIC LEAGUE
A 6-Issue Limited Series Depicting The Justice League As You’ve Never Seen Them…. As Dinosaurs
Batman the Allosaurus, Wonder Woman the Triceratops, Superman the Brachiosaurus
You know the story: an infant escapes the destruction of its home planet and is deposited on Earth to be raised by human parents. A goddess from a lost city defends truth. A Theropod dons the visage of a bat to strike fear into evildoers’ hearts. This heroic trinity, alongside a league of other super-powered dinosaurs, join forces to save a prehistoric Earth from the sinister machinations of Darkseid. Wait…what? Okay, maybe you don’t know the story. So join us and bear witness to a brand-new—yet older than time—adventure and experience the Justice League as you have never seen them before!
“Jurassic League is all I want to draw: dinos and epic fights,” said Writer & Artist Juan Gedeon. “My own version of a 90s cartoon or videogame. Expect a story about survival, unity and hope where the strong protect the weak in a world where danger lurks in every corner.”
THE JURASSIC LEAGUE is a six issue limited series written by Daniel Warren Johnson (WONDER WOMAN: DEAD EARTH) and Juan Gedeon (PENNYWORTH) launching on May 10, 2022. Gedeon is also handling the artwork, while Johnson will provide the main cover artwork for all six issues. Issue #1 will also have a 1:25 Megalustre “Dino Skin” variant cover by Walt Simonson (DETECTIVE COMICS) and an open variant by Gedeon that will be revealed at a later date.
“It’s been an absolute pleasure to join Juan Gideon in creating a new world for DC, complete with dinos, cavemen, and extinction level events,” said Writer & Cover Artist Daniel Warren Johnson. “Batsuar suplexes a Joker dilophosaurus, you’re welcome!”
