    Default Who are YOUR "Big Seven" Leaguers?

    With the threads going on about who people consider the actual seventh member of the Big 7, as well as the resurrection of the voting thread discussing pulling a Big 7 based (loosely) upon the heroes that assembled in Justice League of America #144 (Volume 1, naturally), I thought it might be interesting to do a thread on who people would make their Big 7 today. It's been suggested the characters who made up the original Justice League line-up were there because they were the only ones readily available for the team; now, with a few more generations of new characters under its belt, as well as the acquisition of multiple other publishing companies, there are literally hundreds of characters available to use. So who do you pick?

    The only caveat to the line-up, I'd say, would be that they need to be DC characters firmly entrenched in that shared universe. So no characters from other companies who've appeared in spinoffs, no Amalgam characters, no characters from other properties WB owns, like Space Ghost. I'll definitely question your taste if you put the Joker on the line-up, but he does qualify. Same with someone like President Superman or Victorian Batman or Captain Carrot...different earths, same shared overall narrative.

    Mine would be:

    1. Black Canary
    2. Flash (Wally West)
    3. Vixen
    4. The Captain/Captain Marvel/Shazam
    5. Metamorpho
    6. Booster Gold
    7. Nightshade

    Wether it’s Barry and Hal…


    …or Wally and Kyle…

    …the Big Seven are Supes, WW, Bats, GL, Flash, Aquaman, and J’onn.

    If we went beyond 7 then Aquaman, Vixen, Zatanna, Doctor Light and Green Arrow are there as well.

    I thought about it, but it's still just the founding members for me.

    Yeah it's usually the founders for me too, but I sometimes change my mind on whether it should be Barry or Wally, or replace J'onn with someone else, preferably Black Canary or Zatanna.

    Are you crazy?!? Without Japanese in the line-up, it all falls apart!

    Pretty much this. This is THE Justice League. The nucleus around which everything else is built.

    Even the DCAU version is broadly based off this core line-up...replacing Aquaman with Hawkgirl to improve the gender ratio a little.
