The tool man who opens up the parallel universe - "Justice Society: World War II"

Today, let's talk about the American animated film "Justice Society: World War II".

The title is Justice Society: World War II (2021).

This DC animated film is an original story, that is, a work after Superman: Man of Tomorrow (2020), which belongs to the reboot DCAU (DC Animated Universe). In fact, DCAU doesn't know how many times it has been restarted. When the story can't be edited anymore, it will restart and start over.

The key to restarting DCAU is The Flash.

After sacrificing The Flash, everything went to zero.

This time is no exception. The Flash thread the needle in the film and become a key role in connecting two different universes.

To put it bluntly, he is still a super tool man...

This time, the super tool man Flash ran too fast, and traveled directly to another earth in a parallel universe, instead of the past of his own earth, and traveled through space instead of time.

The story is still partly adapted from pre-crisis comics. The Earth where the Justice Society and other Golden Age characters live is called Earth 2, while the people on this side of the Justice League live on Earth 1.

All righteous friends of the Golden Age of Earth 2 must focus on fighting the Nazis.

The lead is Wonder Woman, Superman is looming, and Batman does not appear directly. The remaining few are Time Man, Black Canary, Flash, and Hawkman on Earth 2.

The villain arranged the sea king who was mind-controlled. Aquaman's performance is like a stubborn iron man, still at the level of a super soldier.

The Flash of Earth 1 scurried back and forth on both sides, and then in the end the plot stopped there.

The Flash solves the invaders of his own Earth with lightning speed, but forgets the troubles of Earth 2 completely. I don't know if the film is deliberately ambush, or the story is half-hearted.

The biggest function of "Justice Society: World War II" is probably to strengthen the nature of Flash's tool man. Using the length of an entire animated film to tell everyone that the Flash can not only travel through time to the past, but also travel through space to other parallel universes, and will appear in the future. Don't be surprised by anything weird.

If The Flash is a super tool guy, the rest of the characters are half-ass tool guys.

In addition to Aquaman acting like a super soldier, the combat performance of other superheroes is entirely determined by the screenwriter.

Superman, Wonder Woman, Black Canary and others have their combat power fluctuating high and low, and a small universe can only break out if teammates sacrifice to heaven.

The most outrageous one is Aquaman's subordinates, a big cockroach can chase the Flash up and down, and the Flash who loses his speed is completely true.

All the dubbing actors in this film, before participating in this film, have done the dubbing of other DC animation films in different roles, which is considered an old acquaintance.

Although it is a reboot of the series, the setting of Iris West (Iris West) in the film continues the setting in the American TV series "The Flash" (The Flash, 2014), and is still an African-American.

In the original comic book story, she is Caucasian.

Meanwhile, Aquaman on Justice Society Earth in the film wears gold-colored gloves instead of the more recognizable green gloves.

This is the original colorway of the character from the golden age of comics (World War II/1940s).

After the reboot, this colorway was placed on Earth in Multiverse 2.

The man who dominates time and space,

A slightly awkward fight with logic.
