HBO Max Orders J.J. Abrams’ Justice League Dark Series From Bad Robot

>HBO Max has greenlighted three drama series from J.J. Abrams and Katie McGrath’s Bad Robot Prods. — Overlook, inspired by Stephen King’s The Shining; Duster, conceived by Abramsl; and a DC Justice League Dark show.

>Details are scarce about the third series, based on the Justice League Dark DC characters.

>Deadline exclusive revealed in January that Bad Robot was exclusively developing both film and TV ideas based on DC’s Justice League Dark universe through its WarnerMedia deal.

>Justice League Dark is a branch of the Justice League dedicated to dealing with mystical and supernatural threats. First appearing in the September 2011 issue of Justice League Dark #1, it has featured characters, mostly occult and offbeat, including John Constantine, mystic and fortune teller Madame Xanadu, Deadman, Shade, the Changing Man, and Zatanna. The roster is much larger, and members joined later on, with Swamp Thing being added in issue 19. Other members of JLD include Andrew Bennett (a centuries old vampire), Black Orchid (a shapeshifter), Doctor Mist (a spy who worked for villain Felix Faust), Frankenstein (a erudite creature), Pandora (based on the Greek character), Nightmare Nurse (a healer of supernatural wounds), among several others. Given their powers, they typically handled situations outside of the scope of the traditional Justice League, which includes Wonder Woman, Batman, Superman, Aquaman and The Flash. The JLD title and team were created by Peter Milligan, with art by Mikel Janín.

If Zatanna isn't wearing pic related they can fuck right off.
>Nightmare Nurse
You know what? Cool. She was a decent idea, and I would gladly see her get more press

wait for a skeleton zatanna with a shit costume

>>Overlook, inspired by Stephen King's the Shining
Nigga what

>J.J. Abrams
>JLD
It's like a casual singularity.

She'll be wearing shitty street clothes and will wear this once and will point out what a shitty costume it is.

>Overlook, inspired by Stephen King’s The Shining
what?

>J.J. Abbrams
you lost me there

I think the closest we'll get is something like pic related, and I bet she'll hardly ever wear the hat.

Fuck this. Zatanna is supposed to be fun, the right blend between theatrical and fantasy. None of that gothic shit. Zee's stage look is iconic, classy, and above all a homage to her father Giovanni Zatara

>None of that gothic shit.
It's not even Gothic, gothic fashion is still about theatrics and drama. This is business casual for the fall.

I prey they don't make her look like that shitty grunge punk look.

>Joker ripoff
>Shining ripoff
Why does JJ Abrams have such a thing for taking other people's shit, remaking it badly, and getting praise for it?

Smallville Zatanna was perfect. Why were they able to get her right? The cartoons also all use the the classic stage magician costume.

The tight black pants are still just wrong. She needs to be showing off fishnet clad legs. Fishnet gloves are not the same or a substitute.

Knock off this thing with trying to be more "serious/realistic" and putting her in pants and just embrace the fun and have her in nylons.

To be fair, there are lots of stories you could tell about that hotel

oh great another mystery box show where the shitty writers have no idea how to structure a story and bury that fact in stretching ideas that could be told in an hour over ten. Fuck all of the LOSRT fucks and their continued allowance t fail upwards

To be honest it's the best comprise we're going to get. It's a mix between the goth casual wear and pic related, and to be honest I don't really care for Zatanna's "super sorcerer" look either.
See I can even forgive not having fishnets. Stocking or pants, whatever. My thing is keeping the rest of the wardrobe, the hat, stage vest/jacket, etc.

Yeah, I don't really have any confidence in this.

Lovely. The guy who ruined Star Trek and Star Wars is now going to ruin another franchise.

>See I can even forgive not having fishnets. Stocking or pants, whatever. My thing is keeping the rest of the wardrobe, the hat, stage vest/jacket, etc

I'm fine with opaque stockings, as well as her wearing something more like shorts, like young justice. Just not long pants.

I also like the N52 version of her Perez design from the second half of JL Dark. Which is also the basis for Superheroine outfit in DC Superhero girls.

lol

DC has been in ruins forever. JJ is only there to take the spoils and shit on it.

Fucking NO ONE DOES
This shit is DOA
Jew Neopotism stronk!!!!

JLD isn't a franchise but a failed pitch that somehow found the day of the light.
>I liked JLD better when it was Shadowpact
>no, I liked Shadowpact better when it was primal force
>no, actually they're all shit

>Everyone here thinking they'll get their Caucasian Zatanna.

Can’t be any worse than the live action justice league movie we actually did get

>kills Star Wars
>kills Star Trek
>...leave DC to me
His stuff is always ALMOST good but then becomes trash.

You mean like
>J.J. Abrams' Star Wars can't be any worse than the prequels

And boy did he prove everyone who said that wrong

Still not as bad as the prequels.

Bad Robot moar like bad writers.

I rewatched Force Awakens and I had to begrudgingly admit everyone who said Revenge of the Sith was a better movie compared to it, was correct.

Quit trying to make JLD happen.

Who says that?

Its such a bad name. Night Force is catchier. Plus you can have Baron Winter setting up different people to be on a team to save the day.
(like Charlie's Angels but with wizards or something)

Who is the artist for these? He also did 4 of Cheetah.

A lot of people on other boards, and I'm not talking about Yas Forums here.

Also, Rise of Skywalker's ending alone also pushes it to worse than even Attack of the Clones and Phantom Menace. I can't believe there are still people are in denial about that. How do you accept an ending that thinks burying all the sabers on Tatooine is a meaningful gesture?

John Keaveney

She can't be black because being Italian is a part of her backstory

I've never enjoyed a single thing Abrams has ever made. What's the opposite of excitement? That's what I feel right now.

mung?
