You’re no doubt already very familiar with the Justice League, but what about the Justice League Dark? While not as well known as their mainstream counterparts, this unique superhero team deals with the threats that Superman and Batman don’t even know about.
Made up of supernatural heroes, the Justice League Dark tackle mystical threats outside of the purview of the main Justice League, and the team consists of a unique, unusual, and obscure set of characters from some dark and strange corners of the DC Universe.
