A Justice League film should cap-off Chapter One

There’s no doubt that a Justice League film should be the endgame of Peter Safran and James Gunn’s first chapter in the DCU. We should see the DC team come together to take on an intergalactic threat.

Martian Manhunter would be forced to gather other Justice League members Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, Green Arrow, The Flash, and Green Lantern to take on a threat like the New Gods. One of the best stories to make that possible is Death of the New Gods.

There are a few elements that would help make this a great film. It presents a unique and compelling storyline that delves into the mythology of the New Gods and their role in the DC Universe. It features an ensemble cast of characters from both the New Gods and the Justice League, which would make for an interesting and dynamic film.

The storyline is set in a dark and mysterious world, with a complex and intriguing plot that keeps the audience engaged throughout the story. The story itself explores themes of power, sacrifice, and the struggle for survival, which gives depth and complexity to the story. It also features a lot of character development, particularly for the New Gods and Martian Manhunter. This would allow the film to explore the motivations and backstories of these characters and give them a deeper sense of humanity.

Death of the New Gods offers a great opportunity to look at the mythology of the New Gods and the Justice League, and if it were adapted in the new DC Universe, it would make for both an interesting and exciting film for the audiences. And the perfect end of the DCU’s first chapter.
