For months now, the Witching War has raged. After the embodiment of magic, Hecate, fell, the power of her Witchmark coalesced in the power-hungry Circe’s hands. Circe, consumed by her desire to control all magic– to become magic– now needs the power of Eclipso, Hecate’s dark mirror. In order to acquire that strength, Circe has sent her agents around the world and has lured Wonder Woman into a trap. With the soul of this mighty member of the Trinity trapped in another dimension, Circe now has control over Wonder Woman’s body– and she plans to use it as the key to Olympus– and her ultimate goal. The fate of all magic hangs in the balance as Justice League Dark #17 begins.

Check out the Beat’s exclusive preview of Justice League Dark #17, out this Wednesday.

Now, with the Justice League Dark crushed at her feet, and her Injustice League Dark reigning victorious, she is ready to take her throne. Is there anyone who can possibly stop her?
