Nothing's showing up - or is that just me?
No, it isn't just you - it doesn't allow remote hotlinking. Though I was able to find it somewhere else. For those that can't see the image, the new JLA roster is:
Superman
Batman
Wonder Woman
Green Lantern (Hal Jordan)
Black Canary
Red Tornado
Hawkgirl
Vixen
Black Lightning
Arsenal
To be honest, I was hoping for a little more Sattellite-era League, though the presence of the extraordinary Red Tornado and Hawkwoman are very welcome. Red Tornado is a character that during some parts of Gerry Conway got a few interesting stories that didn't go far, involving him acquiring a human identity, and it would be interesting to see these threads picked up at some point.
The Vision is easily one of the most stalwart of all Avengers; however, though he and his DC equivalent Red Tornado were introduced around the same time, Red Tornado never got as much to do as the Vision did.
I am DEEPLY disappointed that Zatanna and Elongated Man have been left off. The team won't be the same without you guys!
I do like very much they aren't just having Ollie and Dinah together; that dynamic is played out.
Roy Harper and Black Canary on the other hand, now that's something totally different, a choice of Englehartian proportions!
I also like that John Jones has been left off. Not because I don't like the guy (his sensitive, stick-in-the-mud personality under Busiek's tragically brief run was the best of the character we've seen in a long time) but because I suppose Martian Manhunter has come to be seen as having a slot in any JLA roster in recent times by Divine Right, and really that isn't so.
One concern I have is that with the presence of Vixen, Arsenal and Canary the League is "agile costumed athlete" heavy, which makes the team feel more like the Avengers than JLA.
