A film in the DC Universe Animated Original Movies line, Justice League: Doom is a loose adaptation of the classic JLA: Tower of Babel storyline. In another one of his Evil Plans, Vandal Savage has gathered together Metallo, Bane, Cheetah, Mirror Master, Star Sapphire, and Ma'alefa'ak to form a Legion of Doom. Armed with plans designed to take out the Justice League, they set out to defeat their enemies and Take Over the World...The last movie written by Dwayne McDuffie before his death, the film was released in February 2012.Just like the Superman/Batman moviesnote and Superman: Brainiac Attacks in regards to Superman; Batman: Gotham Knight, the Arkham games and DC Universe Online in regards to Batman; and DC Universe Online later on and the DC Nation Wonder Woman shorts in regards to Wonder Woman, Tim Daly, Kevin Conroy, and Susan Eisenberg reprise their respective roles from the DCAU as Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman. In the same vein, fellow DCAU voice actors Carl Lumbly, Phil Morris, Olivia d'Abo, Alexis Denisof, and David Kaufman reprise their respective roles as Martian Manhunter, Vandal Savage, Star Sapphire (though d'Abo also voiced a pre-Star Sapphire Carol Ferris in Green Lantern: First Flight), Mirror Master, and Jimmy Olsen, and Nathan Fillion reprises the role of Hal Jordan/Green Lantern from Green Lantern: Emerald Knights. Michael Rosenbaum also voices the Flash, but this Flash is Barry Allen and not Wally West like the Flash he voiced in Justice League. Other voice actors include Bumper Robinson (Transformers: Animated) as Cyborg, Paul Blackthorne (The Dresden Files) as Metallo, Carlos Alazraqui as Bane, Grey DeLisle as Lois Lane, and Claudia Black as Cheetah. | |

Wonder Woman's trap seems to be this from her point of view due to some nanobots that cause her to hallucinate that everyone she sees is a clone of Cheetah. | |

Arbitrary Skepticism | |
| Justice League: Doom / int_13eea985 | comment |
Arbitrary Skepticism: The Legion of Doom doubts Vandal Savage, his origins, and his immortality despite them standing next to a Ma'alefa'ak, a Martian who is also older than the human race, and Star Sapphire, who possesses a power created billions of years ago near the beginning of the universe. Ma'alefa'ak reads Savage's mind, but is only willing to concede that he believes the story he's telling them. | |

All There in the Manual | |
| Justice League: Doom / int_17ce80aa | comment |
All There in the Manual: The film assumes that the viewer has some cursory knowledge on each superhero and their Rogues Gallery. Each villain is given a very little backstory, even the more obscure ones like Mirror Master and Ma'alefa'ak. The biggest example is probably Green Lantern's trap and his interactions with Star Sapphire, which are completely based on their shared backstory—but said backstory is barely even alluded to. | |

Gone Horribly Right: Batman reveals that the attacks on the League were based on his own countermeasures on each and every one of them in case they turn evil or arrogant. However, they only existed to immobilize them. Savage just happened to adjust them for a more lethal and permanent method of stopping them all. | |

Gone Horribly Wrong | |
| Justice League: Doom / int_19df659c | comment |
Vandal Savage's plan involving solar flares is similar to the Legion of Doom's plan Gone Horribly Wrong in an episode of Superfriends. Similarly, Superman's plan of moving the Earth out of the way is a call back to the episode "Invasion of the Fearians" where Green Lantern did the same thing to save it from Sinestro's comets. It did more harm than good. It's also a nod to a JLA story from the 70's where Superman moved the Earth in order to save it from Starbreaker. In another episode of the Superfriends, Wonder Woman dealt with multiple Cheetahs (though they're all holograms and one is a rocket). | |

The Stoic | |
| Justice League: Doom / int_1c5002bc | comment |
The Stoic: Ma'alefa'ak. While the rest of the Legion celebrates the apparent destruction of the Justice League, he simply leans back without a word. He only loses his cool when Martian Manhunter is revealed to be alive, and when the missile ignites in his face. Martian Manhunter as well. When King knocks him out, he just looks up and says, completely deadpan, "I am unharmed". He loses his cool when Ma'alefa'ak attacks him, but in his defense it's hard to remain calm when you're on fire. | |

In the climax, the League figure out that this same weapon will be used by Savage to protect his headquarters from the solar flare, and the League decide to use it to let the flare harmlessly pass through the Earth. | |

Adaptation Expansion: The movie adds a scene following Batman's resignation from the Justice League where Superman confronts Batman over the plans he made to combat the League - specifically, the fact that Batman doesn't have a contingency plan for himself, implying that he considers himself better than the rest of the League. Batman clarifies that his backup plan is the Justice League itself, showing Clark that Bruce's actions weren't motivated by mistrust in the League like everyone assumed they were. | |

Mythology Gag | |
| Justice League: Doom / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: Jack sarcastically mentions Robin when King warns him that Batman wouldn't have attacked the Gang's heist alone. Savage mentions that he paid LexCorp for the device Mirror Master uses to steal Batman's files. Green Lantern was attacked with a version of the Scarecrow's fear toxin. Vandal Savage's plan involving solar flares is similar to the Legion of Doom's plan Gone Horribly Wrong in an episode of Superfriends. Similarly, Superman's plan of moving the Earth out of the way is a call back to the episode "Invasion of the Fearians" where Green Lantern did the same thing to save it from Sinestro's comets. It did more harm than good. It's also a nod to a JLA story from the 70's where Superman moved the Earth in order to save it from Starbreaker. In another episode of the Superfriends, Wonder Woman dealt with multiple Cheetahs (though they're all holograms and one is a rocket). Cyborg's design is heavily inspired by his look in the Teen Titans animated series, right down to the bald head and white torso. During the graveyard scene, Bane says, "When we fought before, I broke the Bat." The Queen says "pick a card" while throwing cards at Batman, like the Joker in Batman: The Animated Series episode "Be A Clown". Like in Smallville, J'onn's human identity as John Jones is African-American. During the Shapeshifter Showdown, J'onn briefly transforms into Starro. | |

Adapted Out | |
| Justice League: Doom / int_33d5b7f2 | comment |
The movie combines the counter-measures Batman had against Green Lantern and Aquaman (the latter of whom is Adapted Out); in Tower Of Babel, Aquaman was dosed with Scarecrow's Fear Toxin to make him afraid of water, while Green Lantern was blinded and thus prevented from being able to use his ring. In the movie, Green Lantern gets dosed with Fear Toxin and the effects make him unable to wield his ring. | |

Bittersweet Ending | |
| Justice League: Doom / int_40cc0c7e | comment |
Bittersweet Ending: Savage is defeated, the world is saved, the League inducts Cyborg into their ranks...but the League's faith in Batman is shattered and he himself quits when called out on his actions. He remains unapologetic that his contingences were necessary in case any of them go rogue, and resigns from the team in protest. When Superman asks Batman why he never consider having a countermeasure on himself in case he goes bad, he responds that he does... It's called the Justice League. note That said, it ends a lot better than the comic it's based on. Here, it's played like a semi-amiable conflict of interest (especially when Superman is involved), in the comic it's a total schism which near shatters the trust of the entire League and has ripple effects to other teams around the DC Universe. | |

| Justice League: Doom / int_49f20c6a | comment |
Gory Discretion Shot: Most of Wonder Woman's scenes when she's infected are from her perspective, so we see the cops, civilians, and Cyborg as Cheetah for the most part. We conspicuously don't have her viewpoint, however, when she rips off Cyborg's arm. We also don't see the actual slash across the throat when Cheetah tests Savage's immortality. The blood (from behind), him falling, lying facedown on the floor, the marks healing, yes. | |

| Justice League: Doom / int_50f66629 | comment |
Crazy-Prepared: Batman. This proves to be the impetus for the plot, as Batman had made plans to take down the League just in case. The others see it as paranoia, but he sincerely believes that all of them need to have something that can take them down just in case the worst happens - even himself. And considering the readiness with which he countered the plans, it's likely that Batman also had contingency plans for the contingency plans. Vandal Savage. The missile actually sets off a Macross Missile Massacre? Okay, fine, not that crazy. Turns out that the individual missiles can launch their own missiles. | |

After poisoning J'onn to make his skin secrete magnesium and setting him on fire to burn to death, he casually walks out of the diner, scoffing "He 'doesn't smoke...'

Adaptation Distillation | |
| Justice League: Doom / int_5a40d6a | comment |
Adaptation Distillation: Some of Batman's counter-measures are changed or simplified from what they were in Tower Of Babel note The counter-measure against Superman is probably the greatest example; in the comic, his skin is made translucent after being exposed to Red Kryptonite, and this caused him to experience sensory overload from the Solar Radiation he absorbs. In the movie, he's simply shot with a bullet made from Green Kryptonite . | |

No Badass to His Valet: In the opening battle sequence, Batman gets pretty badly hurt, but being Batman he wants to shrug it off and keep working. Wonder Woman offers to let him use her Purple Healing Ray to cut down his recuperation time; he ignores her. But when he's back at the Batcave, Alfred insists that he rest and get medical care, and stares him down. | |

Pragmatic Adaptation | |
| Justice League: Doom / int_603f1a80 | comment |
Pragmatic Adaptation: A few of the contingencies in the comic required more-than-cursory knowledge of the characters and their weaknesses, so they're simplified to plans that casual comic fans will understand. For instance, giving Superman sensory overload by exposing him to Red Kryptonite so he absorbs too much solar radiation is simplified to being shot with a kryptonite bullet, while the Flash being hit with a bullet that gives him constant seizures is reduced to a bomb on his wrist that'll detonate if he goes too slow. | |

Adaptation Relationship Overhaul | |
| Justice League: Doom / int_72ce3f54 | comment |
Adaptation Relationship Overhaul: Both positive and negative. Batman's relationship with the Justice League is even worse by the end of the film than it was in the comic. In the comic, the contingencies were much worse, but Batman could better defend himself due to previous events that showed they were necessary, such as supervillains taking over/swapping bodies with League members. Ultimately, while even his defenders among the League were angry with him, they understood where he was coming from and the vote to kick him out ended in a tie. Here, there's no history to back up his paranoia, so, aside from Hal, he has no defenders among the League. Superman and Batman ultimately end the film on better terms than they do in the comic thanks to the context change behind Batman's resignation. In the comic, when the League voted to kick him out, Superman broke the tie by voting against him; Batman, knowing that he would do that, left while the vote was going down. In the film, there's no vote, so Superman gets to confront him before he goes; in this conversation, Batman admits that his contingency plan against himself was the Justice League, proving that his actions weren't motivated by mistrust. Superman gives him a piece of kryptonite as a peace offering and the two ultimately depart on okay terms. | |

Adaptation Explanation Extrication | |
| Justice League: Doom / int_794f3589 | comment |
Adaptation Explanation Extrication: In the original comic storyline, Batman was able to better defend his position by citing an incident where supervillains swapped bodies with the Justice League, and even some League members referred to an incident where Agamemno took control of their bodies. While he was still being paranoid, that incident proved he was speaking from experience. In this film, we never get any indication that a similar situation happened or could happen in this universe, and we are just supposed to take Batman at his word that he has a point. There is a sequence where a drug-addled Wonder Woman attacks innocent civilians, but she wouldn't have been in that situation if Batman hadn't made the contingencies. | |

Go Fast Or Go Boom: One of Batman's contingency plans to deal with The Flash, that was repurposed into a lethal trap by Vandal Savage. Mirror Master attaches this to Flash's wrist, where he then informs him that it is a bomb. If he does nothing, tries to remove it, or slow down, it will go off and kill anyone within a three-mile radius. As a result, the only thing Flash can do is run at high speeds until they find a way to get rid of it. Batman instructs Flash to use his powers to phase the bomb through his wrist, ditch it in an iceberg, and then outrun the explosion afterwards. | |

Mood Whiplash | |
| Justice League: Doom / int_a4c37cbe | comment |
Mood Whiplash: The montage of scenes showing the League defeated or slowly failing are quite tragic. That is, until the camera pans to Martian Manhunter running around on fire, screaming at the top of his lungs. The action was so over-the-top that it's actually kind of funny. | |

Super-Strength | |
| Justice League: Doom / int_a8c6a317 | comment |
Superman gets two. In the first, when fighting the Royal Flush Gang, the super-strong Ace slams the Man of Steel with a huge vault door. For a moment it seems Supes has taken some serious damage, but that's only because the focus switches to the other Leaguers' battles. When the attention returns to Superman and Ace, the former blasts through the vault with his heat vision, then simply stands there while Ace ineffectually pounds at him until Ace literally breaks his own arm off. Then Superman catches the other fist, crushes it, and finally tears Ace in two with one punch. In the second, it's Superman vs. Metallo. At first this one looks like it might be an actual fight, as Metallo has Kryptonite and briefly has the upper hand — until Superman decides he has more pressing matters to attend to, smashes the Kryptonite compartment shut, and simply decapitates Metallo with his heat vision. | |

Hero Insurance: Wonder Woman clearly has her premiums paid up. Cheetah uses some Applied Phlebotinum to force Diana to see everyone around her as Cheetah, causing the Amazon to assault what may be dozens of civilians and cops, not to mention ripping off Cyborg's arm. Cyborg snaps her out of it, but still, she's committed a good number of assaults of Muggles and never gets called on it. Well, not to her face. | |

Power of Trust | |
| Justice League: Doom / int_b6064061 | comment |
Power of Trust: A major theme. Though it's not quite as shattered as in Tower of Babel, mostly as it isn't revealed until well after he's gone out of his way to save them all, the team's trust in Batman is wavered by the fact that he made the plans against them in the first place. In the end, however, it leads to a heartwarming moment of sorts where it's shown that even though they don't like his methods they, particularly Superman, still trust him to do what's right even if it's against them, and likewise Batman trusts the League to counter him should he go too far. | |

New Powers as the Plot Demands: A story where limits to each superhero are revealed and exploited allows a solid aversion of this trope. Even once the heroes make their comeback and then try to save the entire world, it takes more intellect (and some Applied Phlebotinum) rather than superpowered brawn to come up with a plan that succeeds. | |

What the Hell, Hero?: Pretty much the entire League's reaction to Batman's refusal to admit he was wrong or at least responsible for innocent people being hurt. Wonder Woman begins to give Batman one of these speeches, but is cut off. Superman finishes it, calling the Dark Knight "arrogant" to his face. Hal Jordan, on the other hand, calls out Batman for allowing his contingency plans to be stolen so easily. | |

Composite Character | |
| Justice League: Doom / int_e4965307 | comment |
Composite Character: In design rather than characterization. Cyborg's personality is closer to his comics counterpart, but his design has elements from his look from Teen Titans. The Flash is Barry Allen, but acts (and sounds) like Wally West. Green Lantern is Hal Jordan, but is more playful and fun, like Kyle Rayner. The movie combines the counter-measures Batman had against Green Lantern and Aquaman (the latter of whom is Adapted Out); in Tower Of Babel, Aquaman was dosed with Scarecrow's Fear Toxin to make him afraid of water, while Green Lantern was blinded and thus prevented from being able to use his ring. In the movie, Green Lantern gets dosed with Fear Toxin and the effects make him unable to wield his ring. | |

The flare would wipe out half the world's population and the accompanying Electromagnetic Pulse would stop anything more advanced than a steam engine from working. Then Savage and his Legion of Doom would emerge from their protected base and rule over the survivors. | |

Adaptational Context Change: While Batman ultimately quits the League in both the comic and film, the context is changed. In the comic, the League puts it to a vote and Batman leaves while they're distracted, knowing that Superman would break the tie against him and not wanting to stay for his expulsion. Here, he quits before the vote, saying that if the League can't understand why he did what he did, he has no reason to stay. This change also means that Superman and Batman leave on better terms, since they're able to talk one more time before he goes. | |

Artistic License – Physics: Vandal Savage plans to launch a rocket at the sun which will create a solar flare. A magnetic trail left by the rocket will guide the flare back to Earth. When implemented, this fails on several points. The rocket gets there at practically the speed of light, even though by all appearances it's an ordinary rocket. Superman can catch up to and keep pace with it, not to mention shooting at its warheads with heat vision despite the speeds involved. The solar flare is also blocked by Green Lantern, yet that only stalls it as opposed to dissipating it. Superman offers to move the Earth out of the way of the flare, playing it straight, but Batman immediately cuts him off, saying it would take a week to explain why it wouldn't work. Superman and Green Lantern get back to the Earth saying there's less than eight minutes until the flare hits. This would require both to have flown back faster than the speed of light, which admittedly is something Green Lantern can do (though usually over far greater distances). | |

Lady in Red: A blonde woman in a red dress J'onn meets in the bar and gets close to him with the kind of behavior one might expect from women dressed in red. It was Ma'alefa'ak in disguise. | |
