Each Justice League character will have their very own specific Kia vehicle that wil be based on the personality and attributes. Constructed by the skilled folks over at West Coast Customs of Corona, Rides magazine and Super Street magazine, each of the rides will boast of custom artwork by comic book artist Jim Lee.

The lines, however, are blurring. Thanks to today’s announcement, Justice League fans should find as much to love in the Nook Tablet and Color as Avengers devotees. DC has brought more than 100 graphic novels to the aforementioned devices and Android tablets running the Nook app. Barnes & Noble also used the opportunity to announce the new Zoom View feature, which lets readers focus on individual panels — functionality that sounds fairly similar to what Comixology offers in its own popular app. For more information about Crisis on Infinite Nooks, check out the press release after the break.
