Justice Society Of America & The Legion Of Super Heroes? (Spoilers)
Geoff Johns' goal with Golden Age was "to delve into the neglected corners of DC with this new group of titles from the JSA to the Legion"
Article Summary
- Geoff Johns' Golden Age series explores JSA's origins and future with new titles.
- The story hints at a grim future and ties between JSA and the Legion of Super-Heroes.
- Mordru the Merciless seeks to alter his villainous destiny using DC's timeline issues.
- Justice Society #10 sets the stage for a JSA vs Legion showdown in upcoming issues.
When introducing the Golden Age series of comics published by DC, back in 2022, Geoff Johns said "our goal is to delve into the neglected corners of DC with this new group of titles, from the JSA to the Legion, and all those who operate between. It's the story of where superheroes came from, where they're going and why they're always needed." And in those early issues there was the suggestion where this was all heading. Throwing in Mime and Marionette, Rip Hunter, the Time Masters and Nostalgia spinning out of Doomsday Clock, and heading to a very nasty future indeed.
The New Golden Age even skipped forward a millennia to the remains of the Justice Society Of America stone table.
With a new Justice Society for the far, far future.
Although that may not have gone as well as these new Legionnaires intended.
And the new Golden Age promised us a new member, albeit one heavily redacted,
Who eventually appeared in the series, the Golden Age Legionnaire. Ostensibly nothing to do with the Legion, but suddenly no longer the case.
As the Golden Legionnaire revealed his links to the Legion Of Super Heroes a millennia away
And revealed to be a familiar Legion character, if not a Legionnaire… a classic Legion villain…
Mordru the Merciless, a magical supervillain created by Jim Shooter and Curt Swan, in 1968. Except this is a young version of Mordru, looking to escape his destiny as a villain and wanting to use the continuity contradictions inherent in Huntress (although I'd also look to Power Girl) to do that. Though maybe he's not quite as benign as he promises? Spoilers… Justice Society #10 by Geoff Johns and Mikel Janin is published tomorrow.
And is promising something big to end this much-delayed series.
The Legion Of Super-Heroes are here. Not the Brian Bendis ones either, looks like Johns has used this series to return to pre-Bendis continuity with this one, And they are gunning not just for Mordru, but for the Justice Society Of America. That's right folks, The Legion Of Super-Heroes Versus the Justice Society Of America. Was that worth waiting for? The subsequent issue #11 is currently scheduled for the very end of August…
