Brian Michael Bendis teases the new Justice League for DC's "Infinite Frontier" era

 

Posted on his Instagram on the eve of the expected DC Comics March 2021 solicitations, it looks like Brian Michael Bendis' next project after handling Superman and Young Justice will be none other than the core team of DC - the Justice League.

As reported by Newsarama, the new line-up is going to be quite the mixed line-up of heroes, with mainstays like Superman, Batman, Aquaman, and Hawkgirl returning. However the line-up looks to be shaken with new and old faces filling up the ranks, with Green Arrow and Black Canary added to the league, Hippolyta and the Bendis created character Naomi McDuffie joining as well, and what looks to be either Shazam (formerly Captain Marvel) or Black Adam in the center.

We'll know soon enough what the story and the line-up is for this iteration of the league once it's officially announced, with Bendis writing and artist David Marquez teaming up once more for this next high profile project.

DC brings back “Tales From the Dark Multiverse” w/ “Flashpoint” and “Batman: Hush”

Set to return a year after exploring parallel worlds in the “Dark Multiverse” in which well known storylines and characters branched out to darker paths, DC Comics (via a report by Newsarama) has announced that the popular “Tales From the Dark Multiverse” series will be returning this November - with two newly announced one shots that tackle two well known sagas - “Flashpoint” and “Batman: Hush” - With covers drawn by artist David Marquez.

In “Tales From the Dark Multiverse - Flashpoint” - imagine if The Flash never corrected the events of the alternate timeline, and the Reverse Flash was left to do his dirty work? What would happen to Thomas Wayne - the Batman of this reality - and the war between the Atlanteans and Amazons raging the world? That question will be answered by Bryan Hitch - who serves as writer and artist for the story.

In “Tales From the Dark Multiverse - Batman: Hush” - we are shown a world where Thomas Elliot ruined Bruce Wayne’s life as a child - leading to a series of events that brings out a dark and twisted Dark Knight called “Batman: The Silenced”. The story will be written by Phillip Kennedy Johnson and drawn by artist Dexter Soy.

Tales From the Dark Multiverse returns this November, with Batman: Hush on sale November 3 and Flashpoint on November 17.
