From the moment my dad died, from the moment I found out there was the possibility of his dying, there were many surprises - years after, minutes after.

It's kind of appropriate to me that Batman is still a part of the 'Justice League Dark' story. I think it would be strange if any of the other 'Justice League' characters were involved in putting together this kind of motley crew of dead people and mediums and ghosts and demons and phantoms.
