Posted on April 29, 2012 by Minhquan Nguyen

By: Greg Weisman (story) The Story: YJ’s philosophy toward recruitment? The more the merrier.

Justice League: New Frontier – DVD Review

Posted on February 4, 2008 by Deamentia

Based on Darwin Cooke’s amazing New Frontier mini-series, this 75 minute flick follows the story of a malevolent creature called, “The Centre”, who’s poised on mankind’s destruction. Taking place in the 1950s, this movie acts very much as a precursor to the Silver Age of comic book heroes. Because of this, a lot of the [...]
