Zack Snyder Confirms Justice League IS a Elseworld Film Tale
During a Recent live stream for “Justice Con” aka Zack Snyder’s Comic Con at Home the Director Zack Snyder had this to say about his version of the film and How it does not fit into the current DCEU
“As I described in my own Justice Con panel, Snyder referred to the Justice League version that’s coming to HBO Max as an “Elseworld” Justice League. And when he said it, it gave me chills. The Elseworld label was created in the DC Comics to tell stories that used iconic DC characters, but didn’t have to follow existing canon from the ongoing books. The Elseworld label led to the creation of stories like Batman: Castle of the Bat, or Son of Superman.”
