So, what do we have here? The 40th film in the DC Universe Animated Original Movies series and the 16th installment in the DC Animated Movie Universe. It also marks the second appearance of the Justice League Dark team, which first had its solo film in 2017. In the meantime, the animated Constantine had his own film, Constantine City of Demons: The Movie, which was released in 2018. Thus, there are many prequels to consider. Additionally, this film adapts several storylines from comics that have been published over many years across different series—"Darkseid War" (Geoff Johns), "Final Crisis" (Grant Morrison), and "Futures End" (Brian Azzarello). It’s clear that only a select group of nerds who had the time to follow all of this will fully enjoy the movie. For me, it's a big treat because I’ve long outgrown generic origins, but at the same time, I’m slightly daunted by the amount of content I’ll need to absorb for future DC animated films. The continuation includes a short from the DC Showcase series—The House of Mystery.
