The opening title of the Justice League animated series perfectly captures the essence of DC Comic’s iconic heroes. The show brought Justice League stories to life in such an incredible way, but one of its most memorable parts is the intro; it’s awe inspiring. In only a minute, it memorializes the Justice League in such a way that any viewer, whether knowledgable of the DC universe or not, could tell you something about each hero.

Beyond the immaculate staging and pose of the DC stars is the flowing, triumphant score and crisp visual style. Because each superhero only has a moment in the intro, it’s nice to pause, appreciate the art, and gaze in wonder. Watch the full video at the bottom.

Dark, foreboding, emerging from the darkness.

Now enjoy the full intro below.
