Pitch me a Justice League roster, what kind of dynamics they would have, and what villains they would fight.The team can serve as the main one, or as a side team focusing on one specific theme, go nuts.I know some of you have some big ideas, so let's hear them.Hard mode: Provide a Legion of Doom roster as well.
>>153031944They should make an all-female League.
>>153032596And it would great, but no wonder woman allowed:VixenZatannaMeraBlack CanaryHawkgirl/HawkwomanDr. LightJessica CruzBig BardaHuntress
>>153031944>Captain Cold in the Nu52 rosterOh, yeah. That was a thing....
>>153031944>Pitch me a Justice League rosterThere's really only one that's valid.>Superman>Batman>Wonder Woman>Flash>Green Lantern (Kyle)Plus two "guest star" slots that get changed in each story.This way the roster is a nice and compact seven, but you can still give some visibility to any new characters that need a boost or do a nostalgic callback.>But what about Aquaman and Martian Manhunter? What about Cyborg? What about-Demoted to guest stars. They're not that hype anymore.
>>153032729Morrison did more damage than good in the long run to the Justice League book. Your comment is the proof.
>>153032718And it was based, about time Snart got some love

>>153032729>Aquaman and Martian Manhunter are not hype.>But Green "Yo como tamales" Lantern Kyle Rayner is.lol, lmao
>>153032819>Morrison did more damage than goodElaborate.
>>153032596it was called birds of prey, except that one guy
>>153033889That guy actually was the only true bird of prey.Most of the others either weren't birds, or the birds that they were, weren't of prey at all.
>>153032729lame
>>153032819Morrison was the first person to make a well-written Big Seven Justice League book. The silver and brozne age stories handwaved a lot to make the stories work with so many heavy hitters on the team.
>>153031944Blue Beetle (Ted Kord)Booster GoldFireGuy Gardner Ice Oracle Starman (Jack Knight)I wanted a bwah hah hah league but without the OP "grown up" like Batman or J'onn and put in Barbara Gordon as Oracle as the closet thing.
>>153032596That would suck.

>>153031944Why do we need a small roster? The current JLU is perfect, just like the cartoon.
>>153031944Prehistoric era, I don't care how or why just do it
>>153037501It's just a little thought experiment anon, play along.
>Black Canary >Zatanna>Wonder Woman>Martian Manhunter >Aquaman >The Flash >Green Lantern Somehow they always get split into groups of two. One of them alway stays behind on monitor duty.
>Justice League (Hall of Justice)Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Wally West, Cyborg, Firestorm, Mary Marvel>Justice League Inc. (LordTech)Mr. Terrific, Hawkgirl, Guy Gardner, Metamorpho, Booster Gold & Blue Beetle, Fire & IceMax Lord>Justice League Cosmic (Satellite)Hal Jordan & Star Sapphire, Martian Manhunter, Barry Allen, Hawkman & Hawkwoman, and Starfire>Justice League Task Force (secret ops)Green Arrow & Black Canary, Vixen, Azrael, Gypsy, and Plastic Man>Dark Justice (magic)Zatanna, Raven, Batwoman, Animal Ma, Blue Devil, Deadman, Detective Chimp
>>153032629>no wonder woman allowedWhy not? If anything, she should lead them.
>>153031944The Justice League is a shit team that's completely unworkable. Grant Morrison's hype in the late 90s somehow convinced DC otherwise.Literally the only way to fix it was to have the Titans (another broken franchise) take over the Justice League, but DC didn't commit and ended up doing just another Raven/Trigon story.Now we have Mark Waid's Justice League Unlimited which is the shittiest, most creatively bankrupt, nothingburger book I've read.
>>153033034You know someone is in a bad state when they keep throwing divinity at him.
>>153037485The existence of Green Arrow killed any chance of a writer pulling the concept of adult Robin well.
>>153037485I'd really like to see this kind of team at least in an AU or something.
>>153039487JLI was pretty strong, but certain people murdered it and pissed over the grave
>>153040068JLI came to a conclusion and turned into Justice League America and Justice League Europe, titles that were ultimately forgettable without Giffen and DeMatteis.
>>153039840How so?
>>153031944>Justice League Ninja/Shadows>Batgirl (Cass Cain), Katana, Nighwing, Tarantula (that one), Red Arrow (Roy), Black Manta (for black and autistic representation), Azrael (Jean Paul),>they would do secret investigations on the League of Assassins, Kobra and other secret groups>There would be a lot of sexual tension between the members with Tarantula trying to rape Dick at every oportunity>drawn by Ed Benes or any old.school nrazilian artists who like butt shots
>>153040942And Cass would walk nude atound the base
>>153040616Robin is actually named after Robin Hood, and Green Arrow already fulfill the niche. Even in Ross drawing, Dick looks like a pallete swap of Oliver.
I'll go with...this Justice League. The World's Greatest Superheroes.
>>153041961Also Barry Allen's there
>>153041981They need a reset button in ccase of emergency
>>153031944So what's the deal with the JL as of now?For example, the cartoon tackled that the government and the world would have a real problem with a bunch of Gods passing judgement over them.Politicians hate the idea of accountability and lack of total control but also the JL cannot just butt in into certain affairs.So was a middle ground reached?I know Absolute Power kind of tried to tell this story before but sucked at it.I would like to tell a story first, then pick the characters for it but I have no idea what is the status quo anymore.
>>153037518Didn't they literally do this with a dinosaur Justice League? And it was FUCKING AWESOME?
MY DC VERSION OF BENDIS'S MIGHTY AVENGERS!> MARTIAN MANHUNTER (New52/Rebirth)Replacing Sentry> POWER GIRL (current outfit)Replacing Carol> HUNTRESS (Post Crisis - Jim Lee outfit)Replacing Black Widow> CYBORG (new 52 - Post Forever Evil design)Replacing IronMan> THE RAY (Rebirth)Replacing Wonder Man3 options for replacing Ares...> THE VIKING JUDGEOr> THE OLYMPIAN (original white, gold & red Global Defenders design)Or> DC's THOR (Rebirth design)Fuck Wasp. If I HAD to replace her then Rebirth Atom from the JLA series series Lobo.
>>153042248This guy gets it.
>>153042379>Global DefendersGlobal Guardians I meant.
Instead of a consistent roster I'd make it rotating, and specifically focus on combinations of characters who rarely interact, like Jonah Hex and Booster Gold.
>>153032596>>153032629>>153033889>>153036885All female Teen Titans.

>>153046444>Black MantaLike, THE Black Manta? Or do you mean his gay son using the Black Manta name for good?If you mean THE Black Manta, I'd assume he just accidentally fell into the good guys while trying to survive.
>>153046683The real one. Not accidentally, it's an alliance of convenience. They know Manta could stab them in the back at any time.
>>153046792I thought about adding some junior leaguers. Maybe Trinity (Wonder Girl), Terry McGinnis (Batman), and Carrie Kelley (Robin). I'm honestly surprised no one's done a McGinnis/Carrie Batman & Robin.
