Warner Bros.’ highly-anticipated Justice League movie is not out until November next year, but at this year’s San Diego Comic-Con we all were teased with the first official footage from the upcoming movie. And even from that brief glimpse, it looks to be an altogether different beast from the very dour Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. There was color and humor, two things that were few and far between in BvS. But what else did this trailer tell us about Justice League?

The trailer begins with Bruce Wayne addressing what seems to be the inhabitants of a fishing village, asking about “a stranger who comes in from the sea.” This stranger apparently delivers fish in the winter when the villagers are hungry, and always comes with the king tide.

Wayne, as you can see, is sporting a full beard. Has his search for members for the Justice League been taking a long time? A full beard tells us that he hasn’t donned the Batsuit for quite a while…

While we’ve already seen Jason Momoa as Aquaman in this year’s Batman v Superman, this is the first time we’ve seen him outside of the water. And he looks… pretty intense. “Talk,” he barks at Wayne.

We see a group of ancient warriors in a forest, burying one of the Mother Boxes that have already been confirmed as being the big MacGuffins in Justice League. These warriors look like Earth-based Vikings, but they could also be a group of the Old Gods, who along with the Amazons and the Atlanteans were the key powers in ancient Earth (with the Old Gods helping/representing humans). If it is a group of Old Gods, then it’s clear Mother Boxes have been on our planet for a very long time…

And here’s that Mother Box. Mother Boxes are alien devices that can give its wielder unbelievable (if not quite clearly defined) power. Long story short–they’re ultra-powerful and everybody wants one.

Here’s our first look at Wonder Woman in this trailer, fully suited up in her battle dress. Bruce Wayne’s solemn voiceover states that he’s “looking for warriors”.

Here’s another look at Jason Momoa’s hard-drinking, tattoo-wearing king of the sea. Clearly, Aquaman is the “could not give two f****” character in this movie. Also, his WWE wrestler Roman Reigns cosplay is totally on point.

Here’s a great shot of Aquaman standing firm as huge waves break around him. This would normally be quite dangerous for a normal man, but Aquaman is totally cool with it.

And here’s our first look at Ezra Miller playing Barry Allen (otherwise known as The Flash) in the trailer. They’re portraying Allen as one of the younger members of this Justice League.

Actor Ray Fisher strides purposefully as Victor Stone, seen here before most of his body gets all mangled and he’s transformed into Cyborg. Justice League and BvS director Zack Snyder has already confirmed that a Mother Box will have something to do with the creation of Cyborg…

Here we are inside the Flash’s not-so-secret hideout, which has been infiltrated by Bruce Wayne. If you look closely, you’ll see that Allen already has a Flash suit ready to go, and the monitors all around the room seem to be displaying results of tests (possibly to do with aerodynamics). There’s also a strange sign in the background that says “Try Your Strength.” What could that possibly mean?

This is one of our favorite scenes in the trailer, as it showcases something that’s been rare in these recent slew of DC movies: a joke. Bruce Wayne simply says: “Barry Allen? Bruce Wayne.” And Allen cheekily responds: “You say that like it explains why there’s a total stranger sitting in the dark in my second favorite chair.”

And there’s more humor! Diana Prince (aka Wonder Woman) seems to be helping Wayne in his recruiting. She asks Wayne about Aquaman’s chances of joining the Justice League, and then it cuts to a shot of Aquaman throwing Wayne up against a wall…

Prince: “More more or more less?”

Wayne: “Probably more less.”

Prince: “He said no.”

Wayne: “He said no.”

Jokes in a DC movie, everyone!

And we’re back to Flash’s lab. After Allen’s repeated denial that he’s anyone “special”, Wayne just ups and throws a batarang at Allen…

…which causes Allen to speed up and dodge it. As you can see, when the Flash is moving at super speed (and using the Speed Force), electricity bolts seem to emerge around him. Allen simply picks the batarang out of the air.

Wayne starts his little speech to try and recruit the Flash, but Allen cuts him before he can finish and states that he’s in. “I need… friends,” he says. Allen then looks at the batarang. “Can I keep this?” All this humor almost feels like a direct reaction to claims that BvS was far too dour…

After seeing so many other Justice League members, this is actually our first look at Batman. His suit doesn’t seem to be much different to the one he was sporting in BvS. Also, he landed without making the now cliched superhero three-point landing. Full points to Justice League!

Here’s our first look at the transformed Victor Stone, who is now Cyborg. His costume here looks quite angular.

Flash in full costume, and yep, he’s a real… spark *puts on sunglasses*

And here’s another shot of Jason Momoa topless as Aquaman. This movie does need to hit all four quadrants, you know.

A group shot of four members of the Justice League. Conspicuously absent: Superman.

Cyborg addresses Batman directly. “I didn’t think you were real.”

Batman growls back: “I’m real when it’s useful.”

And for the final shot of the trailer, we get confirmation that the Aquaman we’ll see in Justice League is Arthur Curry, who, depending on which timeline you’re looking at, could be full Atlantean or the son born out of a human/Atlantean hook-up. Either way, he’s blond in the comics, and Jason Momoa is… not.
