In 2020, Warner DC finally launched the 15th animated film "Justice League Dark: Apocalypse Star War", DC everyone hates Constantine, once again led the Dark Justice League, referred to as Black Zheng, to fight back against the new god of the universe Darkside, this DC version of Thanos Uncle Da, for the DC animation universe movie, referred to as dcmu's new 52 era, drew a perfect end. Today we will talk about the finale of this extraordinary super British animation.
DCAMU's first animated film, which began in 2013's Justice League: Flashpoint Paradox. I think that back then, global film fans and comic fans were still unable to extricate themselves from "Avengers 1". Even Warner executives believe that the extremely low-cost "Flashpoint Paradox" will not do anything, just let it go. Unexpectedly, the film was highly black throughout the film, and the plot was extremely bold, so that fans and comic fans around the world reaped unexpected surprises, broke out of the reputation of "movies watch Marvel, animation watch dc", so that Warner DC broke through the peerless frenzy of Disney Marvel and retained an invincible position.
In the following 7 years, coupled with the "Apocalypse Star War", Warner DC launched a total of 15 super British animated movies, as the finale, "Apocalypse Star War" not only has a new height of plot "black", the ending is also "lost" to people speechless, but this film is definitely worthy of the word "true fragrance"! One of dcamus's best films.
The so-called Justice League of Darkness, or Kurosho for short, is a team that first appeared in comics in 2011, and has now become the team recognized by DC as the most powerful team. Although warner executives were not optimistic about this idea at first, the founding team members of the team, such as Mrs. Shangdu, the Dead Man, and the Secret Guest, were several heroic characters that were quickly forgotten by readers, and the biggest card was Hell Detective Constantine, but because his comics had not been innovative since the 1980s, they were also completely marginalized in the New 52 period.
Constantine belongs to a considerable alternative superhero, usually a leper face, often "three words" do not leave the mouth, the character is scum to the first in the history of American comics, encounter anyone can be intimidated twice, so there is the "beauty" name of Scum Kang and Teddy Man. Jason was a member of the Justice League early on, but rarely participated in clan operations, preferring to be an advisor, making no secret of his long-standing disdain and hostility towards other heroes.
But this time, the screenwriter engaged in a magical crisis, but let Za Kang become the captain, let him lead the team to successfully save the world. Hei Zheng became famous from this battle, and also let the charm of Za Kang burst out at once, but he decided to name the team Hei Zheng, with contempt for the legitimate Justice League from the beginning.
The cause of the Apocalypse War occurred after Darkseid invaded Earth, and Superman proposed to initiate a retaliatory strike on the Apocalypse. Therefore, the black zheng in the film is more like the avenger of the next door house, becoming the final solution to the ultimate crisis. But in fact, it directly turned the Justice League into an interstellar aggressor.
What's even more frightening is that all the heroes actually support this disgraceful plan, including Batman, who has long put justice, self-esteem and IQ first. In the end, the Justice League was destroyed, and the earth was occupied by Uncle Da, and Jacques Kang and Hei Zheng were the backup plan arranged by the wise lord. Many people feel strange, why does the old man trust Zha Kang so much? This should have happened a long time ago.
In the comics, the old man once sat in the chair of Möbius and became a god who knew all the secrets of the ancient and modern and multiverse. It should be at what time that the old man investigated Za Kang and had a deep impression of Za Kang's wisdom and cunning, and even thought that Za Kang was the only one among the heroes who could match him in terms of strategy, and was convinced that he was a hero who saved people from danger.
It's not news that Batman can do magic, and in the comics of a long time ago, there was a time when the old man used magic, but he only had very few types of magic and was not very powerful. In the manga "Kurosho", the old man once proudly stated that he did not believe in magic, but later he joined Kurosho and was the only resident member of the team who was not proficient in magic.
As for why the old man should learn magic, there is actually no reason in the comics. At present, there are two most likely reasons, the first lord's enemies are various, including a small number of magical villains. The second possibility may be related to the old man's defense plan in "Justice League: Destruction", in order to prevent Za Kang from becoming bad, The Old Man deliberately learned several kinds of weakness magic against Za Kang.
However, as mentioned earlier, although many fans have rumored how powerful the old man is, the old man is very talented at best, and Za Kang is the real magic expert, plus there are many eyes, and the two sons of the old man should only be able to temporarily drag Za Kang. However, in the new 52, the existence of magic has been marginalized for a long time, most heroes have been set from the beginning, there is no resistance to magic, and the Scum Kang Group destroys the Justice League, but it may be easier than the old man.
In addition, the old man is well aware that Zakang has a more obvious weakness, that is, Zatana, who is also a magical hero with Zakang. In New 52, Zakon and Zatana are a couple of lovers, and Zakon is even obsessed with her at the point of death. Although in the history of comics, Zakang's private life has been unruly to an incredible extent, now Zatana is the only lady in his heart, and he is absolutely obedient to her.
However, the old man is better than him, according to the setting in the movie, the old man and Zatana refer to the relationship between the abdomen and marriage, the two grew up together, and are really two little guesses and soul mates. The old man secretly asked Zatana to guide Zakon, except for the Apocalypse Star War, I am afraid that there have been many times.
On the wonderful performance of Jacques Kang's defeat of Uncle Da, even surpassed the old master, using all possible means, such as raven's unstable magical potential, pushing her limit to the extreme, and even finally sacrificing the steel bone without hesitation, completely defeating Uncle Da, who even Superman could not defeat, and completely destroying the Apocalypse Star.
However, in addition to the old man, obviously only Za Kang already knows that the world has no value worth saving, and perhaps he just wants to avenge Zatana, because while others are still accepting the cruel fate, Za Kang is already convincing The Flash to open a new universe.
DC's new universe has just opened not long ago, and there are few comics, Warner has already announced that the new animated movie will meet with everyone soon, looking forward to DC can surpass Marvel in the field of animation.
