I just watched this after finally watching the much maligned Justice League.
Everyone has already had their say on Justice League, but this is very different. The Justice League appear but briefly. Batman is here but really in the background. Without the Justice League/Batman tag, this story would never have been made.
We have an occult story, but I haven't a clue overall what was going on. It just didn't grip me. Seemed to have a bit of a Lord of the Rings story merged in with League of Extraordinary Gentlemen etc. That doesn't make it bad, but mostly derivative. It wasn't exciting or interesting.
It was quite adult, and I'm no prude, but even I thought some of the language was unnecessary as many kids will end up watching this. It was misplaced here, and really devalued the work.
However the characters were kind of cool, espeically Deadman and John Constantine. That's what's good about this alone.
Probably now these characters are introduced to us, any later episodes will be more interesting. This was a start, but hoping for better moving forward.
