Ch-Ch-Changes: Shea Fontana Writes Justice League #22, Drawn By Philippe Briones
This is how Justice League #22 was solicited for June.
Written by BRYAN HITCH • Art by FERNANDO PASARIN and OCLAIR ALBERT • Cover by BRYAN HITCH • Variant cover by NICK BRADSHAW
"ONLY HUMAN" part one! Aliens live among us. Sometimes they're refugees from war-torn planets. Sometimes they're hidden. Sometimes they're our world's greatest heroes. But fear and prejudice threaten their lives when an anti-extra-terrestrial group closes the borders around Earth itself. What is the One Earth movement? And how can the Justice League exist when all aliens are outlaws?
On sale JUNE 7 • 32 pg, FC, $2.99 US • RATED T
But instead, the comic will be written by Shea Fontana, of the Super Hero Girls TV show and comics, and soon to take on Wonder Woman, drawn by Philippe Briones and will have a yet-to-be-seen cover by Paul Pelletier.
And it has a new plot.
When a dangerous virus accidentally hitchhikes on Green Lanterns Baz and Cruz to the League's Watchtower satellite, the entire team-minus The Flash and Aquaman-along with some civilians, are quarantined until they figure out how to dispatch their tiny and rapidly multiplying foe. Only one of them has the key…but will they find out in time to save the innocents on board?
Will the original be delayed? Oe, like a solicited-then-abandoned storyline in Trinity, has it been seen as too political?
