Justice League: Gods and Monsters Chronicles

[Matt Bellamy]

Bruce Timm is back!

 

And this time he's doing an alternate Universe movie, changing up the origins, backgrounds, and even who is who.

 

From what info I remember, the big 3 are all different people... Superman is now Zodd's son, and while still seemingly a good guy, he is supposed to be very arrogant and doesn't mind killing if he has to. Batman is not Bruce Wayne... And is an actual vampire. Wonder Woman is not an Amazon, but from Darkseid's army. All 3 of them still seem to be on the side of "Good" but with darker edges.

 

They've released 3 animated shorts, showing off a few of the differences, before the move is released next month.

 

Batman.

 

Superman

 

 

Wonder Woman

 

I can't wait. Bruce Timm is the master of making DC characters likable.

DC animated movies are already well made.  With the hands of Bruce Timm in it, it would be definitely something I will anticipate watching.  Although I do wish that they would continue with the continuity of their animated movies, but seeing how the New 52 went, I doubt there's any chance of it continuing.  

 

Marvel certainly has learned a thing or two from the animation DC released.  Too bad they weren't able to sustain it.

Well Timm has always demanded a certain amount of control in what he makes for DC. He's gotten away with quite a few things over the years in his DC shows. (by making them much darker than expected, or like finishing a 13 episode season in 12 episodes, so he could do a Batman Beyond Epilogue)

 

When he stepped down, I assumed that he was done dealing with DC altogether... But this one is against the grain in a way so it looks like they gave him a lot of power to make whatever he wanted to do.
