Justice League Unlimited/World’s Finest: We Are Yesterday

Since the new Justice League was formed, they’ve been battling against the shadowy threat represented by the superterror organization known as Inferno.  Though they initially appeared to be a new force for evil, the truth is that they’re actually the latest incarnation of the Legion of Doom!  Only the twist this time is that they’re […]
