I look more rad than Lutheranism

I read DC's promo of all their reboot comics

Is it on dccomics. com?

What were they thinking?

My guess? That the current (pre-reboot) status of the characters who are traditionally thought of as the JLA is SO screwed up that that have no chance of making a series of movies that could lead into a JLA movie, like Marvel did with the Avengers.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Is it on dccomics. com?
