“THE GREAT DIVIDE” part two
- Incorporate Tie-In***
- Incorporate Tie-In***
The battle lines have been drawn and the Justice League Dark has been torn asunder by the division between Zatanna and Azrael! Zatanna has thrown in her lot with her former paramour the Dark Knight and his rapidly expanding global security force, whereas Azrael views Batman, Inc. as a combination of government overreach and crony-capitalism that threatens hard-won liberties and has allied with the former boy-wonder, Dick Grayson, and his resistance. But what side with the other members of the JLD choose?
Dr. Fate, as a Lord of Order, obviously sees the appeal of centralized authority. As a monarch, Princess Amethyst does as well. But a man like Lobo won’t stand for anyone trampling on his freedoms, nor will the Demon Etrigan! Yet the sides they end up on may surprise you...
Plus, can Zealot’s relationship with Azrael survive her predilection towards Batman, Inc.? And does Swamp Thing even care to chose a side?

“SPECIFICAL INTERESTS”
- Incorporate Tie-In***
- Incorporate Tie-In***
After Spawn’s raid on Blackhawk Island, Blackhawks’ Director Jason Wynn has called in reinforcements - from Batman, Inc.! Painting the late Al Simmons as a dangerous rogue agent who sold his soul to the devil and returned to earth to assail the living (which isn’t so far from the truth), Wynn has called down the thunder on the man he had killed once already. Explicitly characterizing Al as “already dead” means Batman, Inc. can dispense with its usual non-lethal protocols. But can even the incorporated “Badmen” team of Catman and Deadshot stop Spawn before he and Terry Fitzgerald release the incriminating evidence that they stole? Wynn’s not taking the chance that they can’t, so he’s sending Al’s former teammate and commando extraordinaire Jessica Priest with them! Wynn knows she can keep secrets - because she’s the one who killed Al for him the first time!
