Hero Overview

I once thought I could protect the world by myself. But I was wrong. Working together, we saved the planet. And I believe if we stay together, as a team, we could be a force that could truly work for the ideals of peace and Justice. (The Flash: What, like a bunch of Super Friends?) More like a Justice League. (The Flash: Do you have any idea how corny that sounds?)
~ Superman deciding to form a team called the Justice League.

The Justice League is a team of superheroes appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics. As the DC Universe's premiere Silver Age superhero team, it is seen as the DCU's greatest gathering of heroes, be they well known icons like Batman, Superman or Wonder Woman or lesser known ones, like Black Lighting or Firestorm.

Origin
