SDCC | DC announces ‘Justice League Unlimited’ by Mark Waid + Dan Mora

The ‘Absolute Power’ team brings back DC’s premiere super-team with a fun, throwback title.

In the wake of Absolute Power, the Justice League will return to DC’s core universe in Justice League Unlimited by Mark Waid and Dan Mora.

The new title was revealed by DC in San Diego yesterday, following hints and teases in various places over the last couple weeks, including the solicitations for Absolute Power #4 and the Scott Snyder/Joshua Williamson All In video.

What’s really fun is the title itself, as Justice League Unlimited was of course the excellent DC animated series that wrapped up the series of cartoons that started with Batman: The Animated Series and grew from there. Like that program, perhaps the title hints that the team will have an open roster? I guess we’ll find out soon enough.

Dan Mora shared a cover on social media, which reveals at least some of the members: Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Black Lightning, Satr Sapphire, Atom, Flash and Captain Atom.

DC returns to the Animated Universe in ‘Justice League Infinity’

Almost 15 years after ‘Justice League Unlimited’ ended, DC launches a new comic set in that same world.

Like they did with the recent Batman: The Adventure Continues, DC will revisit their 1990s/2000s Animated Universe — sometimes called the “Diniverse” after Paul Dini — with Justice League Infinity.

The DC Digital First series will feature stories from the world shown in Justice League Unlimited, which went off the air in 2006. JLU producer James Tucker and series writer J.M. DeMatteis will team with artist Ethen Beavers on new stories about Superman, Wonder Woman, Batman, The Flash, Green Lantern John Stewart, Hawkgirl, Martian Manhunter and many more.

JLU ran for three seasons on Cartoon Network and was best known for its revolving cast that would grow or shrink as needed, pulling in characters from all over the DC universe. So expect to see that in the comic. Hopefully we’ll get to see a Question/Huntress/Green Arrow/Black Canary team-up at some point as well.
