![]() ![]() Yet there was one threat above all the others, set up right from the beginning and hinted at throughout Morrison and Porter’s entire run. Morrison also quickly established the types of threats the League would routinely face-over the course of their run, the Justice League had to deal with a White Martian invasion, the armies of Heaven and Hell and reality-warping djinn from the 5 th Dimension. ![]() For the first time in decades, the Justice League was restored to the “Big Seven”: Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern, the Flash, Aquaman and the Martian Manhunter. All of that changed in 1997 with the arrival of JLA, Grant Morrison and Howard Porter’s bold revamp of the team. There was a time in the early '90s when the team was made up of a bunch of lesser-known heroes like Nuklon and Bloodwynd. The Justice League hasn’t always boasted such an impressive line-up. Some threats require the League to open up their roster, like the one time they drafted the entire population of planet Earth to join the team. Promising to fix the planet, their charismatic leader Protex first turned the Sahara into Eden to win over public opinion. While DC’s premier super-team may include the most powerful beings in existence, some threats are too big even for them to handle alone. Back in 1997, in JLA 1 (by Grant Morrison, Howard Porter, John Dell, Pat Garrahy, and Ken Lopez), a superhero team named the Hyperclan arrived on Earth with messages of peace and unity. The Justice League has had an impressive roster of heroes throughout the years, but there are times when even the likes of Superman have to call in some extra help. ![]()
