Justice League: 18 Easter Eggs & References We Already Know

10. Steppenwolf's Axe

From what we've seen of the character so far, Steppenwolf looks like a pretty weird CGI monstrosity, bearing little resemblance to his comic book iteration. Further to that, actor Ciaran Hinds has revealed that his performance will be mostly motion captured, with only his eyes and mouth really showing in the digital build.

But at least we will be getting his iconic weapon of choice from the comics: his hilariously giant axe, which has already been glimpsed in the second trailer as he attacks Atlantis and throws it at Aquaman. This is no doubt the catalyst for Aquaman having a change of heart and joining the League.
