Alex Ross restarting JLA

Recommended Posts

Looks like he is writing/arting a new series, hitting shelves in "the second half of '05". Looks like it is all Silver-Age characters, so it's safe to assume it will exist outside continuity. He's called it a "Superhero war book" which really excites me.

So, there is a war between the Justice League and the Legion of Doom. Who comprises Ross' Legion of Doom?

-Bizzaro Superman-Except he's more creepy and evil, not ME AM SUPERMAN Bizzaro. He looks freaking evil.

-Toyman-Plays the role of the master spy/inventor.

-Riddler-Not much is changed.

-Scarecrow-He's received a small cosmetic facelift, he's no longer as gangly anymore, and his mask is more skull like.

-Sinestro-Mainly joining the Legion to get a chance to kill Hal.

-The Joker-Is like the "outsider" of the group.

I just don't see the appeal. Besides the face and the backwards S, he looks just like the haggard/depressed Superman from Kingdom Come.

Yeah, which is awesome.

Plus, he's not "ME AM BIZARRO" anymore, he's more like a horror villain. Plus, throw in some of the smartest brains in the DC universe guiding him, and you have a massively awesome villain.

I also missed a page of the villains, so here are the rest of them:

Lex Luthor-With gizmos. Fairly neat costume.

Poison Ivy-The "human" version.

Brainiac-Normal sized, not a giant robot brainiac.

Solomon Grundy-Basically a mix of the Hulk and Swamp Thing

Cheetah-she skinned a live cheetah and wears the skin.
