The team has a long tradition of [[Crossover|Crossovers]] with the [[Justice Society of America]]. Once labelled "Crisis on (Something)" fairly often; commonly takes place at a [[You Mean "Xmas"|Christmas/Thanksgiving]] dinner attended by both teams, when suddenly a villain attacks. This stopped happening regularly around 1986 with ''Crisis on Infinite Earths'', though the tradition has popped up sporadically since then (1998's "Crisis Times Five", 2002's ''JSA/JLA: Virtue and Vice'', 2007's "The Lightning Saga").
 
Appeared on TV as the ''[[Superfriends]]'' and ''[[Justice League]]''. Had [[Justice League of America (filmTV movie)|a live action TV pilot]] that didn't go anywhere.
 
== Here are the different incarnations of the Justice League of America so far: ==
Line 44:
* '''The Post-[[Blackest Night]] League''' (James Robinson/Mark Bagley): According to a recent convention appearance, Robinson wasn't satisfied with the way his JLA was going; among other things he thought he had tried to put in too many characters. Starting recently, it's now Batman III (Dick Grayson), [[Supergirl]], Donna Troy, Jade, [[Starman (comics)|Starman]] (Mikaal Thomas), Congorilla and Jesse Quick, thus making a somewhat rough second generation equivalent to the original team lineup.
* '''The [[New 52]] League''': This team is written by [[Geoff Johns]] and features the Big Seven, only with Cyborg replacing Martian Manhunter (who is in ''[[Stormwatch]]'' instead); in addition to these seven, a leaked image suggests Green Arrow, Hawkman, the Atom IV (Ryan Choi), Firestorm I, Mera, [[Deadman (Comic Book)|Deadman]], recently introduced character Element Woman, and reimagined [[Golden Age]] heroine Lady Luck as additional members.
** In addition, there is a new, separate [[Justice League International]], written by Dan Jurgens, with Booster Gold as the team leader, Batman (Bruce Wayne), Green Lantern III (Guy Gardner), Fire, Ice, Vixen, Rocket Red, Lady Godiva, and August General In Iron (a Chinese hero introduced in ''[[Fifty Two|52]]'').
** There's also the [[Justice League Dark]], written by Peter Milligan, a team of supernatural heroes featuring [[Hellblazer|John Constantine]], Deadman, [[Madame Xanadu]], Zatanna, and [[Shade the Changing Man]].
