Justice League Easter Eggs


Warning: This post contains spoilers. You have been warned.



Well everybody just like The Lego Batman Movie, Logan, Wonder Woman, Spider-Man: Homecoming, and Thor: Ragnarok is time to tell you about the easter eggs I noticed in Justice League. Remember not every single easter egg will be listed there just the ones I noticed. So let's get started.

The movie's entire plot somewhat resembles The New 52 Justice League storyline Origin. While it does have that feeling it is no way is a rip off or an adaptation of that story.

During the first act of the movie Batman tracks down and interrogates a Parademon in Gotham City. Which is very similar to what he did in the storyline Justice League Origin.

Cyborg's hooded appearance could be a nod to a similar get up he had in the fifth season of Teen Titans from the episode titled Go!

During the flashback scene when General Steppenwolf invade Earth we do indeed see a Green Lantern. However to my knowledge he's not a specific member to the Green Lantern Corps.

Alfred brings up how one's biggest concern use to be exploding windup penguins. This is probably a reference to the 1992 film Batman Returns where the Penguin had bombs strapped to his penguin minions.

Billy Crudup plays Henry Allen, Barry Allen's father. Which makes it his second time collaborating with Zack Snyder the first time being when he played Dr. Manhattan in the 2009 film Watchmen.

When Bruce Wayne meets Barry at his place if you look in the background one of the screens is playing the hit cartoon show Rick and Morty. More specifically season one's ninth episode "Something Ricked This Way Comes".

Also during that same scene when Bruce gives Barry a picture of him from Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice Barry brings up how it's a young Jewish boy that happens to look like him. The whole Jewish thing is an actual part of Barry Allen/The Flash's history.

When Commissioner Gordon sees Batman he's standing on a statue that resembles the one in Detective Comics #682.

When we meet up with Martha Kent and Lois Lane talking about Clark Kent's passing we get a glimpse of a newspaper from the Metropolis Post. The newspaper's title is "Did They Return To Their Planets". Not only does the picture have Superman in it but it also has two musical icons on it those being David Bowie and Prince.


Image result for stephen king pet sematary


When the Justice League is discussing about whether or not they should resurrect Superman Barry brings up Pet Sematary because he hopes Superman's return won't end up like that. The title Pet Sematary is a book written by Stephen King.

When the team got off to have their first fight with General Steppenwolf Barry says how it's cool of the others seem ready to do battle but he's not. He tells Batman he just pushes people then runs away. This is a reference to his cameo appearance in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice when he did exactly that.



Image result for the bat family


After that exact fight we meet up with Commissioner Gordon and while he's talking to Batman he says how it's get to see him playing well others again. This is either a reference to his fight with Superman or it's a nod to The Bat Family.



Image result for detective comics #27


When Batman is fighting Parademons during the final act of the movie he strikes a very similar pose that resembles the one in did in Detective Comics #27.



Image result for superman truth justice and the american way


When Superman joins the fight against General Steppenwolf he says how he's a fan of truth but he's also a fan of justice. This line almost comes close to his classic saying of fighting for truth, justice, and the american way.


Image result for dc legion of doom deathstroke


During the post-credit scene when Deathstroke ask why Lex Luthor called him, Lex ask Deathstroke the question shouldn't we have a league of our own. This is either bringing up the Legion of Doom or the Injustice League.


Image result for arkham origins deathstroke


Also during the beginning of that post-credit scene Deathstroke's armor resembles the one he wore in the video game Batman: Arkham Origins.





So those were the easter eggs and references that I spotted in Justice League and I hoped you enjoyed them.
