More Justice League: Cry For Justice Previews ... No Matrix Costume!


I know it is coming out in a few days, but I can't help but post more preview pics from the James Robinson/Mauro Cascioli Justice League: Cry For Justice mini-series. Over at The Source, DC has posted a couple of new pages and the finished covers. Here is the link:

The art work is simply awesome. I love Supergirl flying right smack dab in the middle of the cover!

As we have seen before in the previews, Hal is addressing his concerns for a pro-active league to the current members of the JLA ... well sort of. How Superman can be there who knows. This will be one of those stories that gets sorted into my continuity timeline as 'the recent past' ... sandwiched somewhere between Final Crisis and New Krypton.

Cascioli really is spectacular! But what happened to the Matrix costume!



Here is the originally preview which I posted a bit ago. Notice the full shirt?


And now in the most recent preview, we are back to the half-shirt. I was so hoping to see the current Kara back in a Matrix-style costume. I guess I will have to wait.

I am also sort of upset that Supergirl joins Hal's JLA in the third issue. I was hoping she would be a presence throughout the series. I am looking forward to seeing just how Robinson portrays her here. What is her motivation to join this league ... Zor-El's murder? I also hope there is a scene with Supergirl and Superman where Kara defends her decision to join Hal.

I will definitely review this book here.

  1. I for one was hoping that Supergirl just maybe had several different costumes in varying styles...a return to that fabled feminine super-wardrobe from out the 1970's....guess not.

    :D

    Thanks for the post.

    I was also wondering if this was going to be a 'warm-up' outfit Some of those 70s costumes were hideous so I really don't need to revisit that. LOL.

  3. Noir I for that matter heh. :P

    I originally reported the correction come Supergirl's costume up on Facebook's official DC Nation page and everyone there basically called me crazy until I had managed to find the original sneak peek and show the original WITH the revised underneath it which made 'em all shut up soon after. LOL

    I too was truly hoping against hope that Supergirl was FINALLY getting back her more sweet as all get '84 movie/Matrix costume only to find that DC apparently still see fit to have her parade around in the '05 Turner one instead. *Sighs* Ah well.
