JUSTICE LEAGUE: Upcoming (Fan-Made) Motion Comic Sequel Accused Of Tracing Art From DC Comics

We recently learned that a group of "SnyderVerse" fans are developing "The Dreamscapes of Justice League: A Motion Comic," which will be an adaptation of Zack Snyder's Justice League sequels. 

Based on leaked storyboards detailing the filmmaker's plan for the DC Extended Universe, Darkseid actor Ray Porter will provide a voiceover for the project, while Martian Manhunter himself, Harry Lennix, has also been enlisted. The trailer has already been made private on YouTube (perhaps due to copyright issues) and there's now another issue for the project. 

As you can see below, the artists working on the upcoming motion comic have been accused of tracing the work of various DC Comics artists, something that's akin to plagiarism in the industry.

This is a charitable project - with the aim being to raise awareness for the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention - but it's unclear how the artists whose work is being redrawn feel about this. Given how controversial tracing has become, chances are they wouldn't be best pleased. 
 


The team working on "The Dreamscapes of Justice League: A Motion Comic" have issued the following statement responding to these accusations, claiming just some of the art used in the project is "inspired" by the work of artists like Jim Lee, Jason Fabok, and Ivan Reis.
