== Here are the different incarnations of the Justice League of America so far: ==
* '''The Original Big Seven''' (Gardner Fox/Mike Sekowsky): [[Superman (Comic Book)|Superman]], [[Batman]], [[Wonder Woman]], the [[Flash]] II (Barry Allen), [[Green Lantern]] II (Hal Jordan), [[Aquaman (Comic Book)|Aquaman]] & [[Martian Manhunter]], based inside a hollow mountain, the "Secret Sanctuary." Later members included [[Green Arrow]], [[The Atom]] II (Ray Palmer), [[Black Canary]] II and [[Hawkman]]. Snapper Carr served as the team mascot, or as [[The Scrappy]], depending on who you ask.
** '''The [[
* '''The Satellite-Era League''': Basically everyone mentioned above plus [[Elongated Man]], Hawkgirl I, [[Firestorm]] I (Ronnie Raymond/Martin Stein), [[Red Tornado]] II, and [[Zatanna]]. Also Elongated Man's wife, Sue Dibny, sort of. The Martian Manhunter was absent for most of this era when it was originally printed, but seems to have been [[Retcon|retconned]] back in. Also had stretches where Green Arrow and/or Batman had quit the team, but overall, the lineup was quite stable by today's standards. There were several honorary members of whom only one - [[The Phantom Stranger]] - actively participated in their cases on a semi-regular basis.
* '''Justice League Detroit''' (Gerry Conway): Four established JLAers (Aquaman, Martian Manhunter, Elongated Man, and Zatanna), one previously-obscure character ([[Vixen (Comic Book)|Vixen]]), and three complete newcomers (Vibe, Gypsy, and Steel II - a [[Legacy Character]] of Commander Steel, not to be confused with [[Steel|John Henry Irons]]). Later on, Aquaman quit and Batman rejoined. Has its fans, but widely considered a [[Dork Age]].

* [[Crossover]]: The crossover with [[The Avengers (Comic Book)|The Avengers]] is the most famous but the team has also crossed over with the [[X-Men]] during ''All Access', a sequel to ''Marvel Vs. DC''. It also had a crossover with the [[Wild CATS]] before Wildstorm went to DC.
* [[I'm Crying but I Don't Know Why]]: In the Morrison run, after their attempt to conquer Earth fails when they are [[Weaksauce Weakness|found vulnerable to fire]], the [[Shapeshifting|fifty White Martians]], face the [[Psychic Powers|Martian]] [[Mind Manipulation|Manhunter]]. At the end, the narrator tell us of a man that, every morning just after awakening, feels like he had once incredible power that is forever lost. [[Heel Face Brainwashing|This feeling of loss and frustration is shared by other fifty humans scattered in the Earth]], and is so big, he wants to cry. [[Defied Trope|But he doesn’t, because he is an adult and has no time for such nonsense]]. So he smiles, goes out and [[Laser
* [[Loads and Loads of Characters]]: It would be more difficult to name DC superheroes who weren't members of one version of the Justice League or another.
* [[Spiritual Successor]]: Of the [[Justice Society of America]].
