23 December 2019
Gods and Monsters takes place in an alternate universe where the Justice League is made up of a trio of alternate versions of Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman who maintain peace and order in Metropolis with a more forceful and direct approach where they break laws rules and even kill the worst criminals but they do so to protect the innocent and bring order and justice to a crime filled world it's really just there methods that are different from the Justice League we know but they still have principles and values that make them more a force for good than evil but because of there quick to action before thinking attitude and there disregard for the rules and laws mankind try to place upon them when the best scientific minds in the world begin to turn up dead and all evidence puts them as the only suspects the government and the public don't believe they are innocent and begin a back up plan put in place to destroy the Justice League should they go to far code named (Operation Fair Play) now the Justice League must investigate the deaths of the scientists clear there names and find the culprit behind the murders.

In this universe Batman is (Dr. Kirk Langstrom) who becomes Batman instead of Manbat after a failed lab experiment leaves him with a hunger for blood but was found by Superman in the gutter feeding on rats and gave him a purpose as Batman in the Justice League.

Wonder Woman is (Bekka) granddaughter of Highfather who after her new husband Orion son of Darkseid is killed by Highfather during there wedding as a inside attack on Darkseid and Necropolis takes up a sword against injustice but still the loss of her love and her grandfathers betrayal still weighs heavily upon her.

Superman is (Hernan Guerra) who was created when general Zod uses his fingerprint to transfer his genetic code into a spacecraft called an incubator pod that acts as an artificial womb for the child of Lara Supermans mother so he becomes Supermans father instead of Jor El making giving him many of Zods traits making him more ruthless, strong and a passion to lead or rule people but he his still Lara's child and some good remains inside him driving him to be better than his tyrant father who doomed his home planet of Krypton.

This animated movie is it's own story outside of the official cannon DCU continuity but that doesn't mean it's not worth watching as it's an interesting look at a world that could of been and is just one of the many alternate realities in the DCU where we see a different Justice League with different rules lives and powers that make for some excellent stories and some awesome fights and that's what we all came for at the end of the day.
