Set in a new version of the DCU, this story follows Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman as they seek to unite the world's heroes together. The story would have the three main heroes use both their heroic identities and their secret identities to achieve their goal. Meanwhile, Lex Luthor, as POTUS, seeks to use covert and dirty tactics to turn the world against the Justice League. Luthor would hire assassins. This would most likely follow the format of a Netflix series (13 episodes with each one focusing on different characters and or themes).
