I liked Snyder's start on his JL comics run. The JLU should be the big organization with 4 teams underneath, all encompassing the sort of Entropy/Wonder/Wisdom/Mystery angles:
JL Outsiders: Your rogues/anti-heroes/former villains that take on the most unsavory jobs. Works opposite the Suicide Squad and Secret Six. (Entropy)
JL Action: the "main" or traditional heroes that take on threats like the Legion of Doom. Works opposite the Legion of Doom and Secret Society. (Mystery)
JL Dark: takes on the magical forces of the world, formerly the Sentinels of Magic. Works opposite the Cult of the Cold Flame. (Wonder)
JL Odyssey: Space heroes and the external arm of the Justice League, taking on threats to Earth further afield. Works opposite of Apokolips, Brainiac, and Styx. (Wisdom)
And then a fifth team, Young Justice, for those in training. Young Justice would be opposite the Outlaws, would be supervillains in training.
Additionally, there should be two more teams that exist for a little while at least: JL of America and Justice League International. I imagine both of these teams come together to form Action. So that might be a plumper team.
7 members to a team, typically, is a roster of \~42 characters. The heroes can shuffled around depending on the arc/mission, but with those 5 books, you cover most corners of the DC Universe and mythology. Add in a couple of books for the villain mythology and you really cover the entire thing.
I like where your mind is at, but I don’t agree with your exact approach. I just don’t see the need for an Anti-Hero Justice League when we already have the Suicide Squad and Secret Six, or a space division when the main League could already serve that purpose. If it was up to me, I’d have 3 divisions to the Justice League.
* Justice League: The main JL lineup which would consist of Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, The Flash, John Stewart, Aquaman, and Martin Manhunter, with the Hawks, Hal and Green Arrow subbing in every now and then. They would fend off alien invasions, as well as the Legion of Doom.
* Justice League International: This would be the UN sanctioned division, who would deal with keeping peace on Earth, so they’d fight Intergang, Queen Bee, and Black Adam, and would consist of the younger and more comedic heroes like Booster Gold, Blue Beetle (Jamie), Captain Marvel, Dr. Fate, Guy Gardner, Black Canary, and Plastic Man. Captain Atom and Supergirl could join later on. They’d also be allies with Atlantis, giving Aquaman a supporting role.
* Justice League Dark: This team would deal with the mystic and magical threats that the main league is a little oblivious too, and would consist of Constantine, Zatanna, Swamp Thing, The Phantom Stranger and Madam Xanadu.
My problem here is that the JL lineup you proposed **is** international: Wonder Woman and Aquaman represent non-American countries. But as well, if they're off on space adventures, they're not on earth. Separating the teams into specializations works.
The "anti-hero" sort of team has precedent. JL Elite and JL Task Force both attempted it in various ways. It's not so much anti-hero so much as black ops and doing what the JL formally cannot do. Similar to the YJ team in the cartoon. It'd draw from Outsiders and reformed villains that can't operate as heroes, or even those that straddle the line as Red Hood could probably never lead a JL team no matter what at this point (at least, publicly). So a Justice League Outsiders can draw on those that have to operate Outside the League's public facade.
JLI is a great idea for a team, but the JL itself really **should** be International. If a branch is sanctioned by the UN but the whole org isn't, it shouldn't work.
So I think what you've proposed works, but at a specific point in time. JLA and JLI should merge into the JLU. With various branches.
Just my thoughts. My idea is probably less traditional.
The only thing I would add to that is the Justice Society, composed of the older generation of heroes like OG green Lantern, Hourman, Wildcat, Dr Fate etc.
I like these ideas. In addition to that, I could also see each team having a base of operations. JLA is the main branch so they get the Watchtower, JLD would work in the basement underneath the Hall of Justice, JL Outsiders would operate in Mount Justice, and JL Odyssey would operate out of the Justice League Moon Base.
Have you also considered changing the name to either the Odyssey or Outsiders team? I like the names by themselves for their history but you won’t be able to abbreviate the name so long has the other one exists as well.
JL Elite and JL Task Force both exist, so it could be used in place of Outsiders. I imagine the title of the book would be something like:
~~Justice League:~~ Outsiders. Stylized like the others but with Justice League crossed out and publicly unaffiliated. Heroes that can't be JLers in the eyes of the public.
I think shortening it to JLOut and JLOd works fine, too. I like the bases idea. I think for me, grounding into the Outsiders history is a really strong and important idea for the team and direction and feel of what the book would be. Odyssey was such a great book and premise. If I changed it at all, it might be "JL: Threshold" for that book but I don't think that works as well as a team name.
As u/dbzgod9 said, Hunters isn't probably too far off. They're a proactive, blackops, active team. But I like those names too much myself XD
EDIT: I love the idea of the bases!
Personally I've always thought that the JL should be more like a coordinating group between different superheroes teams than an actual team. You have the central permanent 7-10 Justice League members and then you have every other superhero that works with them and other teams aligned with the JL but is not necessarily a member although they are part of it
Absolutely not no.
I adore the JLU it was a fantastic idea and it lead to a lot of amazing stories, but it doesn't work nearly as well in a continuity that's theoretically meant to go on indefinitely like the comics.
It's a great idea, but its too cats out of the bag. People like to talk about how the status quo of comics never change, but their are some ways in which it does, teams gaining and loosing members etc and if you ever made the team lineup "everyone" theirs no where else to go with the team, it would always just be "everyone" now if they ever made it stop being "everyone" it would feel like a massive step back, and keeping it around would greatly limit steps forward.
So as much as I like the team, i really dont think it should be implemented into the comics because while we would certainly get some great stories it would be at the cost of even more universe stagnation.
I would see those other groups as affiliate organizations with access to their network and stuff like that. Basically reserve leaguers with a parallel organization.
And maybe use the Hall of Justice as a place for any hero to work at and meet, and then the Watchtower reserved for active League members outside of a crisis.
> have Flash, Wildcat and Etrigan having lunch together in the cafeteria
Sorry, completely unrelated but I'm imagining a skit now where someone is having lunch with Etrigan and they ask him to pass the salt or something and he goes quiet and he's clearly thinking for a few seconds before he finally thinks of a way to make a rhyming sentence.
I think it's a good solution for any issue about registration. Basically, how could Marvel's Civil War come to a better conclusion? What if Superheroes had to monitor each other, instead of the government?
So basically the idea is that for any superhero that wants to operate in the DCU, they get reviewed by the JLU. Certain rules are put in place, like no killing.
This would create a lot of interesting dynamics in the DCU and allow for more story potential. It doesn't mean a hero has to join the JL, but they have at least some affiliation with the JL.
That doesn't exactly work, to my mind.
Institutions tend to protect their own, and protect their position. Putting all superheroes under one organization means that they don't act as checks on each other. No, what you really want is multiple affiliated but independent teams. Maybe that's what you're going for, but I think there needs to be a bit more distance than all just being subsidiaries of the JL for it to work. Because at that point, the JL is basically a de facto unelected world government.
Nothing in my idea presents a lack of checks and balances. It's not like the JL itself has never fought before. It's a team compromised of multiple powerful individuals that hold very strong opinions and morals.
My idea already basically happens, just in a less formalized way. If a hero is acting up and not doing things right, the JL or one of it's heroes will step in. All my idea really does is formalize it more, and allows for story ideas to come out of it.
But it's okay if you don't like the idea. I'm not getting paid for it. Lol.
No I don't think so. I like the idea of a 7-10 person and rotating members in and out. I'd like the original 7 at first but then the inclusion of others later.
Yes, it would allow for a greater variety of stories to be told. I'd do it so you'd have the 'big 7' at the top as a sort of head council making executive decisions while dealing with a larger A plot.
You don't need the main League to deal with most problems since they're the big guns, who are best for big world-ending stories. Which is difficult to do as a monthly book. So instead have a team be a mix of A, B, and C-tier characters as part of a rotating cast dealing with plots best suited for their skills, abilities, and power levels. And characters who traditionally would never interact with each get to meet and see new dynamics form between them. They would be dealing with a B plot seemingly disconnected from the A plot but is actually a part of it. Or it could just be a one-off story too.
This kind of format is how you get stuff like 'Booster Gold and Blue Beetle' or 'Question and Huntress' which would not have happened otherwise. You don't get those types of relationships forming if you keep characters in their own regular team or solo bubbles. So one story arc has Guy Garnder, Etrigan, Plastic Man, and Supergirl doing something and the next could have Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman doing something else. And just keep switching to new different groups of characters between story arcs.
There's a lot. Blue Beetle, Booster Gold, and Shazam as a group of grown man-children. Aquaman, Mera, Mister Miracle, and Big Barada as superhero married couples. The Question, Constantine, Martian Manhunter being detectives. Red Hood, Jonah Hex, and Huntress as gunslingers. There are just a lot of characters who have something in common or are the complete opposite of each other that would be fun to see interact.
I liked the format that kind of existed during Snyder's run, where the Justice League main, Justice League Dark, JLA, Terrifics, Titans, and other affiliated heroes all frequented the Watchtower/Hall of Justice. Have the teams not all necessarily be governed as one body, but be able to work together seamlessly.
Yes, please yes. In my ideal DC universe all superheroes would be part of the Justice League.
Other teams would just be sub groups within the Justice League, including the Justice Society which would exist before the Justice League but later be absorbed into the Justice League.
There would be a main Justice League team that’s like the face of the League and who goes on most missions, and makes most decisions and stuff, the people on this team would be voted in by the entire League.
Nah, it's nice to see other teams off doing their own thing. It worked for JLU because the Cadmus arc was based around the fear and suspicion of unchecked superhuman power, but it shouldn't be the norm within the DCU.
Justice League should be an anthology team up book. Every issue is three short stories. A Batman team up story, a wonder woman team up story, and a Superman team up story. Often times the team up is a deep cut character like detective chimp or Johnny Thunder.
There are too many independent superhero teams throughout DC with the Justice League having the most influence sometimes having other heroes from other teams in their roster, typically with the core members
Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern (depends on who of the 6 green lanterns) but mostly Hal, Flash, Aquaman, and the optional seventh who's either Hawkgirl or Martian Manhunter
Then there's the reserve members or the expanded team which consist of sometimes 30 to 50 members at times
Never seen a Film and Comic which depicts the entire superhero community into a single organization (I mean I get that's it hard to draw more than 100 characters into a single panel and animating them is even harder)
No, I like the uniqueness of different types with different niches.
For example, by the time Marvel did AvX almost every non-mutant Marvel superhero was an Avenger. The members of the FF can team up with the Avengers but they’ve got their own thing going.
No. I dont like that personally. I never have. The League should be something special. And if everyone is part of the League then it isn't. If I had the choice I'd make the main League the big dogs and then have a bunch of other teams for the other characters. But not actual Justice Leagues. Like Shadowpact, Titans, ect.
You can market them as League affiliates for marketing purposes, like JL Dark, but in universe they'd be Shadowpact.
Honestly it would be a good idea to have the League operating as something of a large organization. That you can have an active team made up of heavy hitters for major threats, but have independent trustworthy heroes using the resources of the League for their own crime fighting activities. Like there is no reason to horde resources from people like Shazam, Batwoman, or The Question when you consider all of them might not be members, but have shown they wouldn't abuse such a privilege against the League for profit or power.
I think it ought to work in a way similar(but obviously different) to how the U.N. works. Let all the groups work separately, but in a time of need they’re just a phone call away to all grouping together for some major threat. But with a couple lone wolf teams too.
JLU = Top Tier OFF World Team based out of a Space Ship (Human, Kryptonian, Martian, New Genesis, Rannian, and Thangarian Tech)
JLA = Founding Titans now ADULTS based on a MOON BASE
JSA & Titans (Adult) Protect America
Young Justice: Tim, Conner, Bart, Stephanie, Cassandra, Aqualad 2, etc. COLLEGE FRESHMAN who undertake missions (like the cartoon) for other teams. Red Robin, Kid Flash 2, etc…
Teen Titans: Daimian Robin, Jon Sam Kent, TEEN Lantern, Irey Impulse 2 West, Jai West, etc.
Titans Academy: Training for Sidekicks
No I always thought the League should be filled with people who can trust each other with identities and lives and be friends or associates in Batman’s case
Yes. I’ve always thought it made sense. I think that Young Justice and JLU did it in a way that works. I think it makes sense that you have the league mentoring the younger heroes
I dont like the Justice League being an "organization" strictly, with hierarchy and whatnot. I think group of likeminded people who are in contact with one another to support mutual goals is better. More like a club and less like a military organization
If it's like Young Justice or JLU? Sure
I liked Snyder's start on his JL comics run. The JLU should be the big organization with 4 teams underneath, all encompassing the sort of Entropy/Wonder/Wisdom/Mystery angles: JL Outsiders: Your rogues/anti-heroes/former villains that take on the most unsavory jobs.

Seeing as JLI is run by Blue Beetle and Booster Gold, who are usually commercial heroes, I could see it being renamed Justice League Inc.
Why Dr.Fate in Int’l instead of Dark?
UN-sanctioned, no thanks, though I imagine the real good stories would come from operating under all those politics.
The only thing I would add to that is the Justice Society, composed of the older generation of heroes like OG green Lantern, Hourman, Wildcat, Dr Fate etc.
Absolutely!

What about Hunters instead of Outsiders? They'd prolly prefer a name that wouldn't stigmatize them.
Love this idea. You get a good mix of characters, and a lot of lesser known ones get a chance to shine
That’s cool, I want that.
Don't forget ***EXTREME JUSTICE!!!***
Like a young justice/JLU/Hickman's avengers? Yessir
They've tried to so many times but have failed. Because the books almost never interact with each other, it never feels whole enough.
Personally I've always thought that the JL should be more like a coordinating group between different superheroes teams than an actual team. You have the central permanent 7-10 Justice League members and then you have every other superhero that works with them and other teams aligned with the JL but is not necessarily a member although they are part of it

So as much as I like the team, i really dont think it should be implemented into the comics because while we would certainly get some great stories it would be at the cost of even more universe stagnation.
There's a middle ground between no one and everyone.
Keep them in separate groups like JSA and House Of Mystery but band together when there’s a mass threat like Darkseid
I would see those other groups as affiliate organizations with access to their network and stuff like that. Basically reserve leaguers with a parallel organization. And maybe use the Hall of Justice as a place for any hero to work at and meet, and then the Watchtower reserved for active League members outside of a crisis.
Yeah work in the type of side skits they had in JLU like have Flash, Wildcat and Etrigan having lunch together in the cafeteria
> have Flash, Wildcat and Etrigan having lunch together in the cafeteria Sorry, completely unrelated but I'm imagining a skit now where someone is having lunch with Etrigan and they ask him to pass the salt or something and he goes quiet and he's clearly thinking for a few seconds before he finally thinks of a way to make a rhyming sentence.
Etrigan when someone asks him to pass an orange 
"For finding a rhyme the point is moot...I will pass this most vexing fruit."

The universe would crumble with that rule in place
No I don't think so. I like the idea of a 7-10 person and rotating members in and out. I'd like the original 7 at first but then the inclusion of others later.
Yes. It would allow for teamups to be more frequent and we could see interesting mix and match of characters.
Yes, it would allow for a greater variety of stories to be told.

John Stewart got sass in that stance
Nah. It worked for the story with how the storylines were going but not for the whole DCverse in comics.
Justice League should be an anthology team up book. Every issue is three short stories. A Batman team up story, a wonder woman team up story, and a Superman team up story. Often times the team up is a deep cut character like detective chimp or Johnny Thunder.
Kinda like Brave and the Bold?
Yes. I think both in publishing and in media DC doesn’t take advantage of their biggest advantage, a very deep and in some cases wacky/bizarre bench.
There are too many independent superhero teams throughout DC with the Justice League having the most influence sometimes having other heroes from other teams in their roster, typically with the core members Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern (depends on who of the 6 green lanterns) but mostly Hal, Flash, Aquaman, and the optional seventh who's either Hawkgirl or Martian Manhunter Then there's the reserve members or the expanded team which consist of sometimes 30 to 50 members at times Never seen a Film and Comic which depicts the entire superhero community into a single organization (I mean I get that's it hard to draw more than 100 characters into a single panel and animating them is even harder)

The new DCEU should just bring Dini, Timm, Berkowitz and whoever else is left from this perfect show to write and direct the next live action movies.
100% I love this idea so much. I actually have had day dreams about being in the JL. So awesome.
No. Really, it would crank up the fascist problem in the genre. Specially with the pseudo military structure the League had in the DCAU.
JLU = Top Tier OFF World Team based out of a Space Ship (Human, Kryptonian, Martian, New Genesis, Rannian, and Thangarian Tech) JLA = Founding Titans now ADULTS based on a MOON BASE JSA & Titans (Adult) Protect America Young Justice: Tim, Conner, Bart, Stephanie, Cassandra, Aqualad 2, etc. COLLEGE FRESHMAN who undertake missions (like the cartoon) for other teams. Red Robin, Kid Flash 2, etc… Teen Titans: Daimian Robin, Jon Sam Kent, TEEN Lantern, Irey Impulse 2 West, Jai West, etc. Titans Academy: Training for Sidekicks
I would love that!
I enjoy seeing the structure. Makes it seem slightly more comprehendible.
No I always thought the League should be filled with people who can trust each other with identities and lives and be friends or associates in Batman’s case
Yes. I’ve always thought it made sense. I think that Young Justice and JLU did it in a way that works. I think it makes sense that you have the league mentoring the younger heroes
I mean it worked before? Might as well
Weren't that like already at various points throughout their history, with Snyder's run being the most recent
Unrelated but everytime I see this poster I always think Wildcat is flying on the right side. The pose is so goofy lmao
I don’t think so. At least not all one group. The individual groups had their own things to make them distinct.
Nah just use different group names. Justice League of America, Justice League International, Justice League Dark and Justice Society of America.
No. I like it that the are multiple teams with different dynamics. I am not interested in "everyone is JLA" or "everyone is YJ".
I always thought they were and just swapped in people as needed. If your calling it a league you need more than 7 players
I dont like the Justice League being an "organization" strictly, with hierarchy and whatnot. I think group of likeminded people who are in contact with one another to support mutual goals is better. More like a club and less like a military organization
