DCEU: 10 Comics It Must Adapt To Beat Marvel
1. Justice League: New World Order
For over a decade, writer Grant Morrison made the DC Universe his own. Whether it was through Animal Man, Batman or Justice League, the writer always managed to bring some of the most inventive, creative and compelling stories going.
Justice League: New World Order might not be the most blockbuster League tale going, but it did bring the group back in a uniquely brilliant way. It also featured a definitive lineup, comprised of Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Flash, Green Lantern, Aquaman and Martian Manhunter. It's the exact lineup WB should look to emulate in the future, but with the League ostensibly on hiatus, that future could be a long way off.
In any case, New World Order presents the perfect template to bring a whole new version of the Justice League into being. It doesn't matter if there's no Superman, Flash or Cyborg (it does matter if there's Martian Manhunter though, let's be honest), what is paramount is that it gets to the core of what makes the League so fascinating.
They aren't just another group of Super-Friends with ridiculous powers, but a team with a proper legacy. That never really shone through in Joss Whedon's film, but with this kind of story informing a potential revival, WB could make the world fall in love with the team on the second go.
