Justice League's Newest Hero Just Confirmed Batman's Worst Nightmare


Warning: contains spoilers for Justice League #60

DC's Batman is famous for his caution, and that even extends to his trusted allies in the Justice League. While meta-humans have helped prevent many major threats to the DC Universe, they've caused just as many, giving Batman good reason to be wary of those with superpowers. Typically, Batman overcomes his natural distrust of others to work with others, however, that caution was just proven justified by the Justice League's newest member, Naomi.

the League's journey into the Infinite Frontier started with a major shakeup in the roster. Wonder Woman is gone, leaving the remaining League members to seriously consider new additions to the team. As they discuss potential new members, disaster springs halfway across the world. A portal opens up over Black Adam's home and an inter-dimensional warlord named Brutus steps out. He and Black Adam clash before the Justice League arrive and scare him off. Though the League deliberates on this new threat, Black Adam wastes no time. Black Adam flies to find and confront another extra-dimensional being, the former Young Justice hero Naomi.

Though Naomi comes from the same world as Brutus, she knows nothing about him or why he's come to earth. Still, the League questions her for details on her homeworld, hoping to find any details they can about this new threat. Much to Batman's interest, she tells the League that her world was completely ravaged by a war between people with superpowers. Specifically, Naomi says the main cause of her world's war was a supervillain named Zumbado, who Brutus seems to know on some level. Wanting to investigate further, Flash uses a cosmic treadmill to transport the League to Naomi's home dimension. However, something goes wrong and the League is separated, leaving the members all alone on a dead planet.

Though Batman has been far more of a team player recently, his innate skepticism leads him to always be at least a little bit of an outsider. This, famously, has led Batman to accidentally taking out every Justice League Member. While it is easy to chalk that sort of mistrust up to Bruce's own personal issues, it's not entirely unwarranted in the DC Universe. Whether through mind control, evil clones, or just bad writing, powerful superheroes turn evil all the time. The Justice League once even brainwashed Batman himself after he discovered they altered a supervillain's mind to turn him good. This eventually led Batman to create the satellite security system Brother Eye, which itself turned evil.

Given all of that, it's hard to blame Batman for taking interest in Naomi's world. Alternate universes like Kingdom Come and Injustices show just how devastating a war between superheroes could be for DC Universe. It doesn't take a detective like Batman to see how Naomi's world proves that the Justice League could accidentally turn into a force of destruction.
