The Death of Superman
The North American release date of the film is November 17, 2017. The day coincided with the release date of the DC comic story line "The Death of Superman"in 25 years ago.The 17th issue of the first comics Superman: The Man of Steel was released in November 1992, and the man-made monster Doomsday debuted.Superman actually died in the Superman, Vol. 2, No. 75 issue, issued in January 1993.
Justice League
Although Justice League first appeared in the 1960 comics The Brave and the Bold, issue 28(at that time, the team was called the American Justice League),but this DCEU first Justice League movie is actually based on the new 52 series Justice League: Origins released in 2005.In the story,Darkseid (the film is replaced by the Steppenwolf) attempts to encroach on the earth. Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman,The Flash, Green Lantern, Aquaman, Cyborg and other superheroes form the Justice League,repelled the alien's offense and then together against the threats on Earth.
Black Mask
When Batman and Parademons struggled in Gotham City, there was a JANUS logo on a building. In the comics, this is a cosmetics company, Janus Cosmetics, run by the Sionis family.Here I have to mention a character Roman Sionis.Born in the rich family, he was obsessed with various types of masks, and was a classmate of Bruce Wayne.He took over the family company after murdering his parents, but the company soon faced bankruptcy. When Wayne Enterprises acquired the company, Roman lost everything, and Romans blamed Bruce Wayne for all this and vowed to retaliate.He went to his father's graveyard, dug out the coffin, and carved an ebony mask with coffin.Since then, he has become criminal- the Black Mask.
In addition, the Two-Face in the comics have used Janus as his pseudonym, because Janus is the name of the Double-faced God in Roman mythology.
Penguin
The movie mentions "exploding wind-up penguins", referring to the old enemy of Batman- Penguin. Penguin first appeared in Detective Comics No. 58 (December 1941), whose real name was Oswald Chesterfield Cobblepot. He is short and scheming and is one of the most powerful triad leaders in Gotham City.
Mother Boxes
In the comics, Mother Boxes is the almost omnipotent black technology in the hands of the new Protoss, equivalent to a "living computer".It can not only heal life, but also open the Boom Tube for ultra-distance movement.The three mother boxes in the movie were kept by humans, Atlantis and Amazon after the ancient war, and the combination of the three will form Unity.But there seems to be no connection in comics.In a cut-down of Wonder Woman, Steve’s secretary, Etta Candi, mentioned,an "old and powerful" object was discovered on the battlefield, and they were appointed to transport it to the United States.Presumably, what is said here is the mother box buried in the earth.
New Gods
The Steppenwolf mentioned: "I will have a place in New Gods".The New Protoss in the comics is the most powerful race in the universe, in two opposing planets, the peaceful and beautiful New Genesis and the Apokolips that is more terrible than hell.Their technology far surpasses other races in the universe, such as the powerful mother boxes are the product of the New Protoss.
