[SPOILERS] Never-Before-Seen Artwork for ‘Zack Snyder’s Justice League’

Sources close to TCN have uncovered never-before-seen storyboard art depicting the end of Justice League Part 1, seemingly by DC comic artist, Jim Lee. At what point in production this was drawn is unknown. TCN reps have reached out to Jim Lee for confirmation.

On May 1st of this year, Kevin Smith joined Chris Killian on ComicBook’s Talking Shop Podcast where he shared some tidbits of Zack Snyder’s Justice League. Smith specifically mentions that VFX workers on set saw the storyboards, some of which Lee drew, for Snyder’s three-part Justice League arc.

“They saw the boards laid out, very elaborate boards, some of them drawn by Jim Lee that laid out the three movies that they were going to make. Somewhere it became two. I guess the idea was, the movies were Batman v Superman, Justice League 1, and Justice League 2. There was this vision of a grand universe. He said he saw Martian Manhunter on it. He said he saw Green Lanterns and stuff like that.”
