Justice League of America

Team » Justice League of America appears in 177 issues.

The Justice League is said to be comprised of "The Worlds Greatest Superheroes". The current incarnation of the League bares resemblance to the original pre-Crisis Justice League of America but features updated versions of its cast of characters for the DC Universe's New 52 continuity.

Yes, I know that they are all Black.

#3 Posted by TheBigRedCheese (369 posts) - 8 months, 8 days ago - Show Bio

I like Vixen.

#4 Posted by SmashBrawler (3851 posts) - 8 months, 8 days ago - Show Bio

I've always preferred Jeff myself. But Cyborg and Vixen are pretty cool too.

Yeah, I like Cyborg too but he's nowhere near as awesome as BL

Black Lightning.

I know this is going to make me unpopular, but I've never really connected with black characters (we don't really have blacks where I live...like, at all), and so it makes it strange to read about black characters seriously.

That being said, I enjoy Vixen the most.

Well hopefully you'll be able to live nineteen thirty five soon.

My country is very xenophobic. Even I am half white, and I am sometimes discriminated against.

I don't know what your 1935 comment was about, because I don't look down on black people. I'm just not used to them - I've never met one in real life.

#15 Posted by Kairan1979 (6461 posts) - 8 months, 7 days ago - Show Bio

I voted for Vixen.

#16 Posted by Strafe Prower (11535 posts) - 8 months, 7 days ago - Show Bio

Black Lightning for me.

#17 Posted by TDK_1997 (9690 posts) - 8 months, 6 days ago - Show Bio

Black Lightining.

#18 Posted by Avenging-X-Bolt (8939 posts) - 8 months, 6 days ago - Show Bio

Jeff is my favorite, he has a lot of depth to him and he's one of the coolest Outsiders around. I love Vixen and Cyborg as well.

#19 Posted by Bruxae (2742 posts) - 8 months, 6 days ago - Show Bio

Vixen followed by Black Lightning.. Cyborg is just completely unintresting for me.

#20 Edited by Twentyfive (2161 posts) - 8 months, 6 days ago - Show Bio

Dang.

Vixen. Given time, Cyborg.

I am not as intolerant as some people.

I honestly haven't read much on BL, but I will, starting next month.

#21 Posted by Captain13 (1921 posts) - 8 months, 6 days ago - Show Bio

@Twentyfive: Star with Black Lightning: Year One. It's epic.

#22 Posted by Twentyfive (2161 posts) - 8 months, 6 days ago - Show Bio

@Captain13: Will do, cap. I hope they don't forgo Vixen in the JL for Animal Man in the future. Seeing the way things are now, with AM's popularity sky-rocketing, and Vixen being taken out of commission in the pages of JLI, that may happen. The world needs more black heroines, and from DC, I only see Vixen, and Natasha Irons (whenever they introduce her). Waller is operating things from behind the scenes, so I won't count her (even though she's awesome!!!).

#23 Posted by Avenging-X-Bolt (8939 posts) - 8 months, 6 days ago - Show Bio

@TwentyFive: wasn't Vixen killed off in JLI? Or was she just injured? I'd personally rather see Mari with Booster and company in Global Guardians while Animal Man joins JL. Mari is arguably the most well known non-American super heroes DC has so it makes sense that she'd be there.

#24 Posted by Twentyfive (2161 posts) - 8 months, 6 days ago - Show Bio

@Avenging-X-Bolt: I didn't directly receive that comment. She was injured. No big deal, but who knows when she'll be back. And you are right. Global Guardians seems like a better place for her. Too bad we won't be seeing that anytime soon.

#25 Posted by Avenging-X-Bolt (8939 posts) - 8 months, 6 days ago - Show Bio

@TwentyFive:Hopefully we will and I'm ecstatic that she wasn't killed off.

#26 Edited by Mega_spidey01 (2134 posts) - 8 months, 5 days ago - Show Bio

i'voted for vixen. i don't anything about black lighting so hopefully his new series with blue devil will make it interesting and cool.

#27 Posted by Lord Shiva (793 posts) - 8 months, 4 days ago - Show Bio

I voted Vixen. BL still feels like an Outsider to me.

#28 Posted by Avenging-X-Bolt (8939 posts) - 8 months, 4 days ago - Show Bio

@Lord Shiva: yup, I prefer him in the Outsiders too. But I think this was just how people feel about the individuals and not whether they belong in the League or not.

#29 Posted by Chronus (985 posts) - 8 months, 3 days ago - Show Bio

Black Lightning by far.

#30 Posted by darth_jones (110 posts) - 8 months, 2 days ago - Show Bio

I love all 3! But i prefer Cyborg in the Teen Titans so I voted for Black Lightning only because Vixen hasn't had enough material for me to enjoy. I think all 3 characters need more face time and/or their own series

#31 Edited by xybernauts (856 posts) - 7 months, 18 days ago - Show Bio

At one time I would have said Black Lightning, but ever since I read the New 52's Justice League; hands down Cyborg. To me he's just super awesome. They really improved his character by leaps and bounds. Spoilers beyond this point. .............................................................................................................................................SPOILERS .................................................................................................................................................SPOILERS................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................ The new Cyborg is interesting cause in addition to having a really great new power set, his story really makes sense. His major conflict is that he was created because of an explosion. As some of you may know his father ( who is much more interesting then i might have imagained) made him into cyborg using a bunch of technology that had been aquired by STAR labs and reverse engineered. He did this to save his life. Whats interesting is that because Cyborg was created when he was in a near death state he teeter totters on the edge between life and death. In one comic, Cyborg was able to see into the afterlife because of the near death state he exists in. In addition, Cyborg carries a white noise cannon. White noise is typically associated with the afterlife. I see a great theme developing. Where Supermans conflict comes from the destruction of his planet and Batman's, the death of his parents, for Cyborg, it's his proximity to death and the question of whether he is alive on life support or whether he died and what's left of him is a soulless machine. Also the ability to fly, open boom tubes, the white noise canon, and the ability to constantly interface with any computer on the planet doesn't hurt either.

@ xybernauts that's statement you made make cyborg seems more interesting and sound a little like robocop.
