Don't really agree with some of these - and a lot of great stories left off. Definitely agree with #9, which is my favorite Justice League story. Also agree with #s 7, 4, and 2. What do you think?

Crisis on New Genesis should have been battling it out for first place, IMO.

I feel like they only included the story from B&B 28 because it's the first story and they really didn't look very hard through all the Gardner Fox years--or they could have found many great adventures if they had tried. Likewise with the Giffen and DeMatteis run. Creators tend to improve on their first efforts--their early stories may lay the groundwork, but it's what happens after that that gets exciting.

Justice League of America #100-102 should've definitely made the list. A great JLA/JSA team-up with the Seven Soldiers of Victory was an amazing story.

There were quite a few Len Wein-written stories that could have been considered, but aren't on that list.

#10 is the worst choice and probably one of the poorest JL story. Otherwise I agree with you.
How about DC: New Frontier ?

Maybe newsarama was just kissing up to Geoff Johns and Jim Lee? Originally Posted by jb681131
