Superhero Origins- The Justice League

"Wonder Woman: Threats to this world are growing every single day. We need a team. A team of warriors?
Batman: A team of soldiers?
Superman: No. A team of Heroes
"
Wonder Woman, Batman and Superman forming the team

The Justice League, also known as the Justice Society (after the events of the Injustice War) is a team of Super-powered beings and metahumans founded by Superman, Wonder Woman and Batman in order to protect the planet Earth against both international and planetary threats. The League was founded in response to defeating the android A.M.A.Z.O., knowing they'd be able to defend Earth better together.

The Justice League was almost destroyed during the Injustice War, where the Injustice League led by Lex Luthor quickly defeated many league members, resulting in the death of The Flash (who faked his death and went into hiding). For months, the league was forced into hiding as Lex Luthor and Maxwell Lord took control of the world.

The remaining spent their time recruiting and seeking help from any and all allies, leading a final battle against Luthor, fighting to the end and ending the conflict, but at the cost of Batman. With one of it's founders of its seven founders now dead, Superman would subsequently leave the league and move back to Smallville to run the Kent Farm. Before leaving however, he was able to convince Captain Marvel's family members, including Mary Marvel, Lieutenant Marvel, Captain Green, Eugene Choi and Darla Dudley, to join the league.

Later on, The Flash revealed to be alive and returned to the league

Other than the main organisation, various other members have founded factions, including the Birds of Prey led by Black Canary.

History[]

Foundation[]

Knowing that an Invasion of Earth, Superman, Wonder Woman and Batman quickly call upon their individual contacts, in an attempt to create a viable team of super powered beings and metahumans to face the oncoming threat. Superman tracks down John Stewart. Wonder Woman travels to Central City and recruits Barry Allen. Batman travels to Star City and recruits Victor Stone, persuading him to use his abilities to fight Darkseid. In an underground base, Superman and Batman discuss any other recruits they could find, but Batman tells him they have run out of time, but did take the time to contact one other possible recruit.
