Lines In The Snyder Cut That Are More Important Than You Realize

Zack Snyder's Justice League has a lot going on in its four-hour runtime, so it's not surprising if you miss a few things while watching it. These lines go by quickly, but they're surprisingly loaded with meaning. Here are some of the key quotes from Zack Snyder's Justice League.

"I've come to enlighten you to the great darkness. I will bathe in your fear."

Most people would be intimidated by the sight of a phalanx of battle-hardened Amazonian warriors, but that's not the case for Steppenwolf. When Darkseid's lieutenant breaches the stronghold on Themyscira, he doesn't cower in fear. He taunts Hippolyta and her soldiers before unleashing a horde of parademons on the vigilant defenders.

A few minutes later, Steppenwolf repeats himself.

"The great darkness begins."

If you're a longtime DC Comics fan, your ears probably perked up immediately.

Published in 1982, "The Great Darkness Saga" was a five-part storyline that started in Legion of Superheroes number 290. The story pits a team called the Legion — a group of 30th-century youths who have modeled themselves after present-day superheroes like Superman — against a mysterious villain called the Master.

In one of the all-time greatest reveals in superhero comics, the Legion eventually learns that the Master is none other than Darkseid, who has been waiting for 1,000 years for the opportunity to strike.

To this day, The Great Darkness Saga is still considered the very best Legion of Superheroes tale and one of Darkseid's most memorable appearances. It's only fitting that it gets a nod in Darkseid's feature film debut.
