Really hoping Zatanna ends up getting a mini somewhere down the line, really loving her in JLD. Honestly wouldn’t mind Tynion writing her mini, he writes her well imo.
I can't for the life of me understand why the CW hasn't developed a Zatanna series. I'd much rather watch that than Batwoman or Stargirl.

I agree. Didn't Gail Simone hint she would write her

Perhaps it's a budget issue? Her powers are a lot flashier than Constantine's
I think Zatanna has been written.pretty well in JLD and given a prominent role.
But I do prefer her to be written in a lighter tone so I would like her to get a mini or even be featured in.another book with her more fun and playful side featured.

I agree. To me, Zee works better in superhero stories. Also she needs to have a sense of showmanship and her tophat
Justice League Action had a pretty great Zatanna.

Probably considered off limits by the film department of WB since they were developing a JLD movie.
As for why this wouldn't affect Constantine; these things are random and arbitrary.

Yeah, I prefer her to be lighter and act as a contrast to the darkness of the magical side of the DCU. Also would like to see her cultivate relationships with someone besides Constantine. Maybe bring in Artemis from YJ?
Happy New Year to the Mistress of Magic :cool:.
Right now I'd just be happy to see her finally leave the JLD costume behind and get back to her snazzier classic duds.
What's the best power signature for Zatanna
Sparkles

I'd go with sparkles too. She's a female stage magician, her powers should be "showy."
[I]Justice League Action[/I] used them very effectively.

Showiness is part of what Zatanna does, but to me her showiness should always have a purpose. To entertain, to impress, or to misdirect. That was one of the best parts of the Zatanna story in New Talent Showcase 2018. Zatanna defeated the enemy with the piece of magic that everyone missed she did.

Yeah, but being a living sparkler/glitter bomb suits her imo

Probably one of the most gorgeous renditions of Zatanna in that outfit.

She was shown in a flashback sealing the Queen of Fables with the rest of the League, so makes sense she'd have to be the one to undo it.
I'd love for her to show up again. She looks great.
Zatanna on the big screen is happening

I'm excited but also a bit disappointed since her JLD incarnation is probably my least favorite version of her

They say film and TV projects, so maybe Zatanna might get a solo series?
I agree I'd rather see classic Zatanna then JLD Zatanna, but we'll have to see how they approach it.
Justice League Dark Apokolips War trailer. They did Zatanna dirty. She's just a cameo now

Not to mention she's not even wearing her proper costume :(.
Any reason this is called Justice League [I]Dark[/I]?
The only thing that seems to connect it is Constantine as a main character.

Well, it seems to be a very dark and bleak movie...
Didn't even realize the old thread had been closed. Although it isn't 2019 anymore.
From this week's JLD. Awesome Zatanna page. One of my favorites ever.

Looks pretty cool. Kind of lost interest in JLD since Tynion left. But if Zatanna is being a bad ass in it I might have to check it out.
I just picked up the Catwoman issue from a few months ago that had Zee in it. Looking forward to reading that.

Joelle Jones probably has one of the better depictions of Zee in her current costume in my opinion.
The preview for June's issue says something along the lines of the team learns of Zatanna's burning secret. I'm curious to see what happens there.
For the most part, I've enjoyed this JLD. Not crazy about Zee's design this time. I don't hate it, but I don't love it. And I wish this was more of a JLD book than a Wonder Woman and team book. For those reasons, I preferred the original JLD. Maybe Ram will focus more on Zee.

Maybe it has to do with Zatarra. I liked how Tynion incorporated him in the story a few issues ago. He really should be a prominent DC figure. He did debut in Actuon comics #1 after all.
I've also really liked this series. This and Hawkman have been by far the best series coming out of DC. And the art has been great as well.

Yeah, it's okay, but I'm hoping it's done once this JLD era ends.

I think we have to wait until shes not in JLD at all. That's pretty much the only place where I've seen her in this look.
When shes in any other place shes usually in her classic threads.

I've seen her in like [I]Flash[/I] and [I]Young Justice [/I]in the current look.
Flash , I dont remember her being in that but in YJ, if I recall correctly, she was in her more classic look.
Edit: Actually just looked it up and you were right on YJ. She looked good there too.

Anka did a good job drawing it.
I think that costume looks good with her top hat on and her hair down

I actually really like her current look. It's probably her best, IMO.
Her current look is not bad. I just wish she didn't have the braid and bangs hairstyle. Also the big blue coat just covers her up a lot.

Do I think Z's JLD costume is her best one? No. But it fits the more gritty feel of the story that Tynion told. Having her be dressed in full white tie performer outfit wouldn't really fit with her teammates or the story we got.
I'm going to have to say I feel tights/fishnets stockings are an iconic part of her wardrobe for me, so having her in tight leather pants just doesn't feel quite right. I get their trying to be more serious, but I feel the way I feel about it. I did like the redesign of her Perez Superhero outfit from the later half of the previous Dark series(which incorporated fishnet tights into the design) though. So I'd have her either go back to that or lose the long pants for something more classic looking.

I agree it fits better with the tone of JLD, although I always begrudge Tynion for introducing it as a stage outfit in the first issue of his run and I wish they'd not use it as her de-facto look.
