Zack Snyder Reveals Cryptic Puzzle Explaining His Original Plan For Justice League


There's been a whole lot of contention surrounding the DC Extended Universe's Justice League comic book movie. The film underperformed at the box office because of its convoluted story, forced comedy, and sexist undertones – many of which fans attributed to Joss Whedon who took over the reshoots for Zack Snyder.

While the director has yet to confirm the alleged Snyder cut of Justice League, the filmmaker has been teasing details of his original plan for the film. One of the most recent clues that he's given the fanbase is a design for a suicide prevention t-shirt campaign. The artwork for the charity t-shirt acts as a map for Snyder, revealing how Snyder wanted to build the DCEU.

Check out the design down here:

At the very foundation of Snyder's design is Batman (Ben Affleck), the most human hero in the DCEU, From there we get to see symbols for the Flash (Ezra Miller) and then Cyborg (Ray Fisher). The symbol then moves on upward to Wonder Woman (Gal Gadot) and Aquaman (Jason Momoa). At the very top of the design is Superman (Henry Cavill), the hero with the most god-like powers in the franchise. The initial understanding of this design is a hierarchy moving towards the gods, though there are various symbols scattered around the pentagram that add to the analysis of the art piece.

Not only does the t-shirt design have the Kabbalah Tree of Life, but it also has the Latin term for justice and equality "Aquitas," inward and outward pillars, running swords, AC-23, and other various symbols.

What do you make of the design? Feel free to share your thoughts in the comment section below.
