Even if it is a bit before my time, this is still my favorite era of the League. The stories are just so big and fun, and the roster is unbeatable.

I love the Pre-Crisis Justice League. It's probably my favorite JL era.

Hmm, disagree that this was the best era, it just made the foundation.
If the Detroit League hadn't happened and the Satellite era had ran until Legends, I think Vixen would've still been added as she was a Gerry Conway character and he had already put Firestorm in. We probably wouldn't have gotten Gypsy, Steel or Vibe, though.
But it would've been cool to see Vixen with the Satellite team.

Here's a thought...
Who would be interested in an X-Men Forever style Satellite JLA series picking up after #232, with Flash, Supergirl, Superman and Wonder Woman returning from Earth-2 into an alternate multiverse where the Crisis doesn't happen and the League doesn't disband, Supergirl is given membership and a few issues later Vixen joins?
Could it be a coincidence that the three heroes with Superman in this story were the three main characters killed in Crisis..?

this is the roster of the satellite era right?
because i just love this line up...
Firestorm is missing. Ross was not much of a fan of him joining, so he tends not including him when he draws that era (And, in pictures above, Hawkwoman was left out of #200, since she was missing at the time in Hawkman's adventures, which is my only pet peev with that awsome issue featuring the entire JLA- minus Hawkwoman, unfortunately). J'onn J'onnz was pretty much retired in New Mars during most of the satalite years, but after COIE, he was retroactively unretired, aand was part of the team uninterruptedly right from the beggining. Yes, It is a great line-up.
Peace

DC's trade collection of this era is pretty horrible. We should have volumes of Archives and Omnibuses and instead have like some different tpbs that capture only small pieces of the era and skip a bunch. I'm gonna have to custom bind it.
Things I love: Batman, Superman, AEW, old films, Lovecraft
Grant Morrison: “Adults...struggle desperately with fiction, demanding constantly that it conform to the rules of everyday life. Adults foolishly demand to know how Superman can possibly fly, or how Batman can possibly run a multibillion-dollar business empire during the day and fight crime at night, when the answer is obvious even to the smallest child: because it's not real.”
