Top 7 members for my Justice League.

Recently, one of my friend who knows how big of a comic buff I am, mentioned that he doesn’t like the current 7 of the Justice League and asked, If I could write my own Justice League, what will be the members. Though initially offended, I thought to give it a try.
So, without much chit-chat, let’s get started.

  1. Batman

The leader, the detective, the tactician, The dark knight. Batman is truly the center of justice league. He is the personification of a man among gods. I can’t believe any justice league without him.

2. Plastic Man

Who else could counter the grumpiness of Batman but the Plastic. With Super flexibility, shape shifting, and the comic plot armor. The hilarious jokes may make you think he is a joke, but when it comes to the offense, he is someone you don’t wanna mess with.

3. The Flash

Who else than the fastest man alive ? Weather it’s breaking the time barrier or using the speed force to the point of creating paradox in space time. Flash is not just a speedster, He is a force to be reckoned with.

4. Raven

What is justice league without the element of magic ? And who else than the daughter of the demon herself. Her command and abilities of spell to induce pain and control minds have no limits than her own self. Plus, the little bias that she is my teenage crush.

5. Firestorm

If you think he is just another guy with fire powers you are mistaken. The underrated Firestorm is one of the most powerful characters in DC. He doesn’t just release bolts of energy but can convert and mold any material to any other it sees fit. Superman ? I am just gonna convert this iron bar to Kryptonite. His molecular manipulation gives him an edge to others.

6. Big Barda

Sometimes, the magic, tactics, speed and fire are not enough. Sometimes you need brute force. Big barda is just that, trained by Granny Goodness Big barda is of the same species as Darkseid bringing her strength at par with wonder woman or even beyond. She has traveled across the universe and will be bringing a lot of power and knowledge to the justice league.

Last but not the least -

7. Saint Walker

You might have heard of the Green Lantern Corps, powered with their will, but how far can the “will” go, unless there is “Hope”. Hope is what powers the blue lanterns. Saint Walker, is the most powerful of Blue Lanterns and probably one of the top ring bearers across the universe. Saint Walker brings in the powerful calmness into a team of vengeance, magic and violence.

Honorable mentions — Dr. Atom, Dr. Fate, Shazam, Constantine, Martian Manhunter, Spectre, The question, Hal Jordan, Aquaman.
