Justice League: Doom (DCEU)

“This is Batman. Security level: Omega. Password: Delta Charlie—27–5–1939. Enable new protocol. Title: Agamemnon Contingency.” “The members of the Justice League are more than just my teammates. They’re more than just my friends. They’re.....family now. It’s always been about family no matter the cost. But in a world so vastly crippled and torn apart by the confines of war, greed and hatred, with so many new arrivals and entity’s of different specifies making their presence known, I feel as if this group might not be safe around the eyes of the public let alone each other. So with that in mind......if any of the core members of the League turn rogue, we need to have plans in place to handle each and every one of us, should WE become a threat. There is a very possible chance that that day might never come......but we need to prepare for the worst. ALWAYS.”
