    So is Martian Manhunter, which is odd, as isn't he Hawkgirl's boyfriend?

    As for Diana, I assume she's still with Justice League Dark?

    Naomi on the Justice League? Seriously? What has she done to deserve that kind of role? It's Bendis so I guess as expected he is just pushing his pet OCs and she is "too good" to slum it with the other teen characters in the dumpster like the Titans, lol.

    No fictional character deserves anything. The closest you get to that idea is characters bringing a book more money.

    We've seen teens on the League before, and we can assume Bendis just wants to keep writing/developing a pet character.

    It’s happened before with Firestorm, Vixen and Aztek.

    Yeah, that's the long and short of it.

    I hope Bendis' issues with team books doesn't negatively impact her here.

    Teens on the league has never really gone well. Also I just think there are more deserving black female characters like a Vixen that deserve that push more, but writers like Bendis want to push their own original characters because that is where the money is if they can work them into more other media adaptations off the back of it.

    This would not be a surprise. I think he's also interested in pushing new black female characters because of his daughters, who I think are likely around the age of Riri and Naomi.

    I saw someone speculate Wonder Woman might not be here because she might be on the relaunched JSA.

    At least the Noami push wasn't as forced as the Riri one, but I don't think it has anything to do with his daughters. I think he sees how at DC there is a dearth of black female heroes and he sees the opening to push his new pet character into the staring role over using already established black female heroes.

    I just think the JL should have fairly high standards for who they let in. Then again Bendis had Harley Quinn sitting at the JL table in one of his issues, but also narratively Naomi being on the JL kind of makes the Titans Academy set up pointless if the JL are overseeing their own teen characters.

    Hippolyta on the League and Diana on the JSA feels backwards, but hey the JL needed a shakeup.

    Wouldn't Nubia make more sense? Hippolyta has to rule Themyscira.
