In a world without the Justice League, Superman Jon Kent is doing his best to assemble a new team to protect all existence in the upcoming Dark Crisis event. But an interview with writer Joshua Williamson shows that his efforts may be in vain.
Since taking on the role of Superman from his father, Jonathan has been doing everything he can to prove he's a suitable replacement. He's not taken his new job lightly, pushing himself to be the sort of hero who can step into Superman's bright red boots and meet the expectations the world has of him. From taking up social justice causes to fighting powerful foes, Jon is proving himself to be quite a capable hero. But now that his father, along with the rest of the Justice League, has mysteriously disappeared, the pressures he faces are about to get a whole lot more intense.

With the Dark Crisis event looming, it's been announced that the new Superman would be putting together a new Justice League to combat the Great Darkness. However, in a recent interview with CBR, event writer Joshua Williamson reveals that Jon may have already failed before he's even started. When asked what he can say about the new Justice League team, Williamson replied, "There is no Justice League." He continued, "You can't create a League just because you want to make one. It just doesn't work that way." The writer also mentioned that this aspect would be "a major part of the story." In a lighter question regarding his favorite members of the motley crew Jon assembles, Williams specifically name-drops Dr. Light, Frankenstein, Blue Beetle, Booster Gold, and Damian Wayne.
