Superman Returns!!
July 23, 2017
The Man of Steel returns in an unexpected way in DC's new Justice League Comic-Con trailer.
Precisely one year after Warner Bros. dropped the first teaser footage from Justice League at San Diego Comic-Con, DC has decided to treat us to a new, second trailer — and this one raises the stakes in super style. Yes, you know what that means. He may have been buried in Batman v Superman, but the dirt bouncing on his coffin made it perfectly clear that resurrection was on the cards for the Man of Steel in Justice League — the only question was whether he'd be fighting with, or against, the team. The trailer was a perfect tease that left us wanting more.
While the 2016 Comic-Con footage focused on Bruce assembling the league, the new trailer has a stronger focus on the team
itself, introducing the villainous Steppenwolf (played by Ciarán Hinds) as the Apokoliptian threat facing Batman and the team. He
looks good by the way. Hopefully this is not another Doomsday situation. There are also glimpses at supporting characters like Jim
Gordon, and a surprisingly large amount of action from the Amazons, but
the big moment...the one guaranteed to light a fire under the hype train
from now until November — will arrive when a certain red cape or black suit descends from the sky. DC seem to be playing with us, shrouding Superman in ambiguity even now. Will he be friend... or foe?
We'll find out whether Krypton's finest is an ally or a bad guy when Justice League arrives in theaters November 17.
