Click on the pic for a larger look. Quite a line-up eh? According to MTV Geek, "the title brings together a disparate group of heroes under the leadership of Steve Trevor to fight the Secret Society of Super Villains.". As you can see the team will also include Martian Manhunter, Catwoman, Baz, Green Arrow, Vibe, Stargirl, and Katana. Apparently JLA will run alongside Justice League. To hear what Johns and Finch have to say about this new series, click the link below back to MTV Geek.

fullmoon106 - 8/26/2012, 10:33 AM
Hmmm...interresting line-up. Especially Catwoman. I'm curious.

WTF?
Angelus - 8/26/2012, 10:35 AM

Bandido - 8/26/2012, 10:38 AM
Hm that really is quite interesting/weird...hey maybe it will be good...maybe
KaneVonDoom - 8/26/2012, 10:38 AM
This is one of the few things DC has done in a long long time to spark any interest for me.
BruceLeroy - 8/26/2012, 10:40 AM
Very interesting. Much more interesting line up than the current Justice League. I'm definitely in.
MARVELPSYCHO79 - 8/26/2012, 10:45 AM
I had a feeling DC would put David Finch on art duties for JLA.That new team lineup looks very interesting too.
ILoveStargirl - 8/26/2012, 10:45 AM
YAY! Stargirl in the JLA! MORE YAY!
MidNightWind - 8/26/2012, 10:46 AM
This would explain justice league #8 when Steve told green arrow about joining another team. But I'm curious as to why catwoman is on the team. Doesn't sound like her.
soberchimera - 8/26/2012, 10:47 AM
Well maybe Johns can give Hawkman some of his dignity back after being with Liefield for so long.
AnditsOn1 - 8/26/2012, 10:49 AM
Ok, so that's why Geoff has to drop aquaman......oh, my aquaman!!!!!!
DioFoRio - 8/26/2012, 10:50 AM
cool line-up. makes for a new dynamic and new stories to be told
coolguy - 8/26/2012, 10:50 AM
Oh he'll yeah. I wonder which book johns will leave though :(. I wonder what his origin for stargirl will be though.
coolguy - 8/26/2012, 10:51 AM
I thought that johns sAid later he would be on aquaman for a long time to come.
DCjohnny - 8/26/2012, 10:51 AM
wow... interesting ... who is that behind catwoman....
AnotherSinisterClone - 8/26/2012, 10:51 AM
vibe huh?
coolguy - 8/26/2012, 10:53 AM
I guess they will eventually come to blows as shown in the free comic book day thing.
darkknight2149 - 8/26/2012, 10:53 AM
Catwoman looks a lot like her Arkham City version and Green Arrow looks a lot like he does in his upcoming tv series.
hope420 - 8/26/2012, 10:54 AM
Well damn I guess the new Green Lantern is here to stay huh? Odd line up but I'll give it a shot!
CaptainKilgore - 8/26/2012, 10:55 AM
Baz. not Bash
KingG - 8/26/2012, 10:55 AM
I love it. LOVE the characters and their art, thats one of the reasons i prefer DC. And the line up is friggin epic, STARGIRL, CATWOMAN, and who's that guy in the black with the guns? Like his costume.
KingG - 8/26/2012, 10:56 AM
Oh and the guy behind CATWOMAN.
DioFoRio - 8/26/2012, 10:56 AM
the mask on GL looks weird. Should've made him look Arabic. Seems like a missed opportunity for a really wicked GL costume.
Fastestmanalive - 8/26/2012, 10:57 AM
AWESOME!!!
But if you'v been following any of DC's hints this shouldent come as a suprise.

With the upcoming trinity war and DC talking about intertwining the JL comics, JL and JL dark.

Also in JL#8, when Green Arrow tried to join the team but was recruited to a different unknown team, and the Martian manhunter in the same issue saying theyre not ready.

And finally the clincher being the preview in DC's free comic book day showing two different JL teams fighting it out for pandoras box.

This all looks really awesome, this all makes sense, cant wait until Captain Marvel comes officially on scene as well as the Question and the Phantom stranger as the Trinity of sin.

Next year will be so kick ass :)
lokibane2012 - 8/26/2012, 10:57 AM
what?...
Jolt17 - 8/26/2012, 10:57 AM
Martian Manhunter? Yes.
KingMarvel - 8/26/2012, 10:57 AM
JLA just got MARVELIST!!!!! straiht they look like the Avengers back up team hahahahah
DaddyTuesday - 8/26/2012, 10:58 AM
No thanks. Get all the weak or semi-weak characters and put them together? Fine, but in the JLA? From bad to worse DC.
coolguy - 8/26/2012, 10:59 AM
That's Steve trevor in the black with the guns. And damn he is like the most used character now between jl, jld, and team 7, along with this new title.
aquaman52 - 8/26/2012, 11:00 AM
Wow, didn't expect this!
toco89 - 8/26/2012, 11:01 AM
Just add iron man and its the ultimate avengers all over again.
DrRockso - 8/26/2012, 11:01 AM
If this is the "American" Justice League then why did they use the Armenian Lantern? Hmm?

And is it just me or does Baz look kinda like Kick Ass?
newmutants - 8/26/2012, 11:01 AM
wow Finch is always epic !
KingG - 8/26/2012, 11:02 AM
Steve Trevor, hhhhhhhhhmmmmmmmmmmmmm, im digging his uniform.
toco89 - 8/26/2012, 11:03 AM
Trevor=Coulsen?
RorMachine - 8/26/2012, 11:03 AM
Right, Baz..sorry!

DrRockso, he's Arab American.
KingG - 8/26/2012, 11:04 AM
Seems as though some people are calling this an Avengers ripoff, OH LORD, it just never stops.

SMFH. :/
Fastestmanalive - 8/26/2012, 11:04 AM
But based on the free comic book day preview theyre missing the Atom and that female Metamorpho, Element woman I think.
Fastestmanalive - 8/26/2012, 11:08 AM
@Shamo
Thats Vibe, he was around in the 80's, he has sound powers where he can shoot sound waves or something like that, hes considered a joke and Johns picked him for that reason, he said he always likes a challenge :)
KingG - 8/26/2012, 11:11 AM
LEVITIKUZ, i agree.
Orangelight - 8/26/2012, 11:11 AM
VIBE?!? You have got to be kidding. Bunk!
SageMode - 8/26/2012, 11:14 AM
"Vibe, Catwoman, Martian Manhunter, the new Green Lantern, Stargirl, Katana, Hawkman and Green Arrow".
toco89 - 8/26/2012, 11:16 AM
It's not ripoff of the ultimate avengers,

it IS the ultimate avengers.
jimpeachey - 8/26/2012, 11:16 AM
Makes a JL film much easier if they don't have Supes and Bats in it doesnt it?
MJPETTY7 - 8/26/2012, 11:20 AM
Well, at least Martian Manhunter is finally on the JLA again!!!!! I'll be buying!!!!
KingG - 8/26/2012, 11:21 AM
toco89, not trying to start no shit but thats not really necessary.
Fastestmanalive - 8/26/2012, 11:22 AM
I see where this is going, especially with the title "it will take the worlds most dangerous."

Its kinda like DC's black ops team, all these guys are darker heroes who are loose canons and not really adored by the public and dont play by the rules. And because of that they are probably put together by the government to hunt down the real Justice League.

You got Catwoman who is a thief and not always on the side of the law.

Martian manhunter who got kicked off the JL apparently for his methods and was in Stormwatch.

Baz who from the previews says he is someone who you would not think a canidate for the corps.

Katanna who is more assassin then hero.

Green arrow who is a bit of a vigilante.

The SAVAGE Hawkman who carries around huge spiked blades as weapons.

And Steve Trevor, the government agent meant to keep this group of wild cards in line.

Vibe I dont know his status qou in the new 52 and honestly Star girl Im not sure what shes doing in here.

All in all very very cool.
toco89 - 8/26/2012, 11:22 AM

-"Makes a JL film much easier if they don't have Supes and Bats in it doesnt it?"


Ok? No.

It isn't the Justice League without Superman and Batman. It would be pointless.
