When Jim Lee returns to art duties on Justice League #9, he will be bringing a new villain with him. We have already seen some of Lee's early concept artwork for the still unnamed character, but below we have our first official look courtesy of Carlos D'Anda..
Geoff Johns will be penning the brand new story "The Villains Journey" - I assume in reference to the handsome chap above - beginning in this issue.
