Whatever else is competing for your attention this week, Justice League Dark is worth clearing space for. Justice League Dark uses its genre premise as cover for asking bigger questions. When innocent civilians begin committing unthinkable crimes across Metropolis, Gotham City and beyond, Batman must call upon mystical counterparts to eradicate this demonic threat to the planet; enter Justice League Dark. This team of Dark Arts specialists must unravel the mystery of Earth's supernatural plague and contend with the rising, powerful villainous forces behind the siege—before it's too late for all of mankind. Matt Ryan and Jason O'Mara lead a cast that brings real weight to the material. It was released in 2017.
