DC's Justice League is facing major twists and seeking refuge in the Absolute Power event. After a devastating attack on the Fortress of Solitude, the Justice League seeks refuge with Wonder Woman's Amazon sisters on Themyscira. The event, which involves the entire DC Universe, promises major twists and developments for DC heroes.
In DC's Absolute Power #1, a four-issue crossover event series, Amanda Waller steals the metahuman powers of every hero and villain on Earth. Waller turns the former headquarters of the Justice League into the Hall of Order and seizes control of all media to publish AI-generated deepfakes framing superheroes for atrocities. The deepfaked videos turn public opinion against superheroes, leading to mob violence and targeted attacks. Waller's ultimate plan is to draw the superheroes into the open and activate Task Force VII: the power-stealing Amazos. The depowered superheroes are defeated and rounded up by Waller's agents [8c9493ca].
The Absolute Power event affects the entire DCU, with tie-ins and miniseries exploring different characters and their roles in the event. Absolute Power #3, written by Mark Waid and illustrated by Dan Mora, is set to release on September 4th and marks a serious turn for the Justice League's resistance team. Can Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, and the rest of the depowered heroes strike an alliance with the elite Amazonian warriors? [d1b3eeee]
DC Comics' Absolute Power storyline sees Amanda Waller's plan to destroy heroes and turn the DC Universe against them. The plan involves the use of Failsafe-designed Amazos to steal away the heroes' powers permanently. This turn of events breaks the status quo and forces the heroes to face public hatred. The situation is reminiscent of the JLA/Avengers crossover, where the Justice League experienced the open hatred that Marvel heroes often face. Despite the challenges, breaking the status quo may strengthen the heroes' roles as beacons of hope. It remains to be seen if Waller's plan will last and if the heroes can survive and regain the trust of the public. [9265bd2e]
