The Justice League Dark, or JLD, is a fictional superhero team that appears in comic books published by DC Comics. First appearing in ''Justice League Dark'' #1 (November 2011), the Justice League Dark originally featured John Constantine, Madame Xanadu, Deadman, Shade, the Changing Man and Zatanna. The team consists of the more supernatural members of the DC Universe, handling situations deemed unfit for the traditional Justice League. ==Publication history== ''Justice League Dark'' was announced on May 31, 2011 as a First Wave title of The New 52 The title and team was created by Peter Milligan, with art by Mikel Janín. The title launched on September 28, 2011. The title brought several of DC Comics' occult and offbeat characters, something which had been a trait of sister imprint Vertigo, back into the main DC Universe following Vertigo's editorial change to publish purely new, creator owned content. ''The Search for Swamp Thing'', a three part mini-series released between June and August 2011 which led up to The New 52 relaunch, and followed the events of the ''Brightest Day'' maxi-series, follows Constantine's search for the resurrected Alec Holland as the new Swamp Thing, involving the cooperation of Batman, Zatanna and Superman. In addition, the ''Flashpoint: Secret Seven'' mini-series, written by Milligan as part of the "Flashpoint" crossover storyline, included Enchantress and Shade and introduced the character Mindwarp in the lead-up to the start of the series. Peter Milligan stated in an interview that he got the job for the book from his work on the 2011 ''Flashpoint: Secret Seven'' mini-series, and that he hoped to write something "emotionally dark" set in the DC Universe, comparing his characters to detectives, who struggle to cope with the things they see and have to do. The initial anticipation for this title has been good, with critics celebrating the fact that DC are willing to bring back some of the darker elements which had moved over to Vertigo in the 1990s. The opening storyline involves Enchantress' defeat of the Justice League, leading to the necessity of a more supernatural team to assist in these events, and detailing how they have come together.〔 There is also a minor crossover story with ''I, Vampire''.〔 From issue nine, ''Sweet Tooth'' and ''Animal Man'' writer Jeff Lemire became the principal writer on the series. In his first story arc, the Justice League Dark took residence in their new base, at the House of Mystery, and have started to show their links with the wider DC Universe, dealing with Steve Trevor and A.R.G.U.S.〔〔 In August 2013, it was announced that J. M. DeMatteis would take over as series writer from Lemire in November 2013, after a solo issue by Ray Fawkes in October. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Justice League Dark」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
