[SPOILERS] Descriptions Of Justice League's Two Post-Credits Scenes

Published Wed, 15 Nov 2017 02:00:48 -0600

In true Marvel movie fashion, Justice League has two post-credits scenes. While neither of them give away any huge plot points about the actual movie, this does require a spoiler warning. So if you don't care about spoilers, go ahead and take a look — but otherwise, we'll see you once the movie comes out.

If you were expecting some sort of tease for Aquaman, then you're going to be let down. There are two after-credits scene and only one of them signifies anything of substantial.

The first one is the mid-credits scene, but it needs a bit of explaining. Earlier in the movie, after Superman returns, he flies off to help some civilians during the final battle. The Flash is off doing the same thing and they are side by side as far as speed goes. This mid-credit scene has Superman and Flash deciding to race each other from one coast to the other. Superman jokingly says that if he wins Flash is off the team. Then Superman says if he wins Flash has to take them all to brunch which is a callback to when Batman and Flash first met and Flash went on a tangent about not understanding brunch. They gear up to race and it cuts to black before we see a winner.

The second scene, which is after the full credits roll, cuts to Arkham Asylum. We see a man in a straight jacket who is bald. The guard is yelling for Lex Luthor (Jesse Eisenberg) to get out here but he's not listening. It is eventually revealed that this is not Lex and he has escaped. Cut to a pier and we see the outline of a man with two blades on his back. He goes to a large boat in the water and we see Lex sitting in a suit. Deathstroke (Joe Manganiello eventually reveals himself and Lex refers to him as "Mr. Wilson". Deathstroke eventually takes off his helmet and this is an old Slade Wilson. He looks a bit like old Snake from Metal Gear Solid. Lex says that their enemies are building a league so maybe it's time for them to build one of their own.

The DC Extended Universe is probably way too "serious business" to use "Legion of Doom" so the better chance is that this is the beginnings of The Injustice League. The DCEU takes a lot inspiration from the New 52 and both Lex Luthor and Deathstroke have been members. Other members include Bizarro, Black Adam, Black Manta, Captain Cold, Catwoman, and Sinestro. Two of those, Black Adam and Black Manta, are already confirmed for the DC Extended Universe. Catwoman is only a matter of time and Bizarro is an obvious villain for Man of Steel 2. Green Lantern Corps. is still a thing so Sinestro seems likely as well.

The problem with calling it The Injustice League is that when most people hear that they're going to think of the comic or the game. Maybe they'll just call themselves The Legion.

Summary: Fueled by his restored faith in humanity and inspired by Superman's selfless act, Bruce Wayne enlists the help of his newfound ally, Diana Prince, to face an even greater enemy.

Justice League, directed by Zack Snyder, stars Ben Affleck, Gal Gadot, Jason Momoa, Ezra Miller, Ray Fisher, and Henry Cavill. It will be released on November 17th.
