Summary
TheJustice Leagueis officially debuting in one of DC’s best comic titles of 2024,Batman/Superman: World’s Finest.This new debut features a major battle against the wrath of God, yet fans are still left wondering which heroes will make up the roster of DC’s premier superhero team and whether they will be enough to defeat a deity.
Fans could potentially see Dick Grayson’s Robin as a founding member of the Justice League
On August 11, 2025, fans can finally get their hands on Mark Waid and Adrián Gutiérrez’sBatman/Superman: World’s Finest#32, the issue that willdebut the Justice League. Until now, the series has focused on the adventures of Batman, Superman, and Robin (Dick Grayson), with various heroes making guest appearances.
Variant Covers:
Stephen Segovia, Danny Earls, and Francesco Tomaselli
Even the combined might of the Man of Steel and the Dark Knight Detective cannot overcome the reincarnation of the literal wrath of God… sounds like our heroes are going to need some reinforcements. It’s the World’s Finest debut of the Justice League as night falls on the DCU!
However, the official formation of the Justice League has yet to occur. This issue will be a monumental milestone for the series,potentially shifting the focus towards team dynamics rather than just the trio of Robin, Superman, and Batman.
World’s FinestGives the Justice League a New Origin, But Which Heroes Will Be on the Team?
Thanks to DC’s solicitation for the issue, fans know that the Man of Steel and the Dark Knight will soon face a threat that even their combined might and brains cannot overcome—the wrath of God. Hence, this obstacle will serve as the catalyst for the formation of the Justice League. Beyond this tidbit, details remain scarce, including who exactly will form the team’s new roster. Bruce and Clark will obviously be on the team, and an incentive cover by artist Francesco Tomaselli featuring Batman, Superman,and Wonder Womanall but guarantees that Diana will also be part of the team.
Beyond these three characters, the rest of the team remains a mystery. However, it is likely that four other heroes will join to round out the typical seven-member core Justice League team. An interesting prospectis the addition of Robin. As previously mentioned,World’s Finesthas focused on the trio of Batman, Superman, and Robin. Therefore, it is unlikely that Waid will drop Dick at this point in the series, meaningfans could potentially see Robin as a founding member of the Justice Leagueor at least working with them from the very beginning.
Is DC Teasing a Justice League vs. Spectre Fight forBatman / Superman: World’s Finest#32?
One particularly intriguing detail about the synopsis forBatman/Superman: World’s Finest#32 is that it specifically mentions Batman and Superman facing “the literal wrath of God.” This phrase stands out because DC’s The Spectre is often referred to as the literal embodiment of God’s wrath and vengeance. This could be DC’s clever way of revealing that the Justice League will be taking on The Spectre in their debut. It’s important to note thatThe Spectre is typically portrayedas fighting for good or, at the very least, as an anti-hero, so it will be interesting to find out why theJustice Leaguewill be fighting him.
Batman / Superman: World’s Finest #32will be released on June 28, 2025, from DC Comics!
