The Justice League is dead and the heroes that are left behind have to band together to fight the forces of evil.

Hi, Joshua. Thank you for taking the time to answer our questions. My question: Whose idea was it to kill the Justice League? Yours or editorial’s? If it was your idea, what was the initial editorial reaction? Obviously it got approved, but I’m curious if there was any pushback at first.
Hello Mr. Williamson, and thank you for stopping by our corner of the Internet!
My query: Other than Crisis on Infinite Earths and Pariah, is there another Crisis-branded mini-series (and character, if you’re able to say) that had a sizable influence on Dark Crisis?
Dark Crisis is my most-anticipated event for 2022, so I’m pulling for you and its success! Good luck!
Why, because its my #1 most-anticipated DC event of 2022, that I cleared off a lot of titles from my pull list to accommodate everything pertaining to Dark Crisis, that I’m buying variants that highlight Yara Flor and that I’m buying all of the tie-ins, too?
Hello, thanks for answering our questions. Pariah killed all the JLA except for Green Arrow, why have his death different? However if that is a read it and all will be revealed question, as an alternative did you get to chose the lineup and deaths and was anyone off limits or was that part of a greater editorial decision?
This is absolute ! Thank you so much for doing this, Joshua and huge thanks to everyone at DC Universe Infinite that had a part in making this happen. THIS is what being a subscriber here is all about!
My one and only question is this (though it is two parts) - Will the newly minted Bat Cowl NFTs be a part of Dark Crisis in any way and, if so, what can you tell us about what is in store for us?
You been incredibly busy working on many titles since infinite frontier started and I’m assuming these titles that lead up towards the Dark Crisis you’ve been working on each of them simultaneously.
I gotta ask, how do you handle that workload, while managing different tone and characterization in each series?
These are pretty good books, so the question is regarding how do you keep it consistent?
Thank you for taking time to answer our questions!
I can only imagine the scope and fallout of Dark Crisis will be huge and impact the DC universe. When writing Dark Crisis, how much planning and character research is involved?
How important is the tie-in Dark Crisis: Young Justice going to be for the third generation of heroes? Is this the start to more common appearances of characters like Cassie, Tim, Kon, and Bart?
Hi Josh! Thanks so much for joining us. Personally, I’m most curious about the direction of the Arrow Family from here. We’ve been primed for a reunion between Roy and Lian Harper since Infinite Frontier, and that still has yet to take place. Likewise, in your Robin, Connor Hawke seemed to be preparing to confront his father — but now, it seems like he’s missed his chance. Without a dedicated book for any of them, especially with the conclusion of Teen Titans Academy, it’s a hard time right now to be a fan of the Arrowfam. Can you share a little bit of hope for us?
My question is: will Roy Harper’s story continue in Dark Crisis?
He’s my favorite character and I loved your writing for him in Infinite Frontier last year, so it’d be really cool to see him be a big part here as well, especially with the focus on legacy and Ollie/Dinah dying, and since he isn’t in any books right now.
I know that Aquamen #6 is missing from the DArk Crisis checklist (thank you for dropping that early on by the way) so will there by any tie-ins, explicit or otherwise, that aren’t on that list? Also, given that Green Arrow was hit by Doomsday and not “nostalgia-versed” by Pariah (for lack of a better term), how come he’s getting a “World Without a Justice League” tie-in (not that I’m complaining, Ollie is my favorite superhero)?
