I’m just happy Crimson Fox is back. I always liked her in JLE

Yeah I agree, I loved that book and fox was always fun to read

Loved the tail on her costume

[kilderkin]

I thought this issue really brought things back on track after the last one, which I felt was a bit like filler given the space in of the issues

Loved this, thought the text content was great and the ending was fantastic

Some nice work with j thunder especially

[Aahz]

DC has way too many international superheroes. There's potential here.

Don't know, at least the European characters are imo for the most part pretty terrible.

“ green arrows of the world?!” Geez, there’s more heroes than i thought.

Second largest continent in the world (i.e Africa) has no heroes I see, made all the more obvious by that list of heroes someone just posted...

Don't know, at least the European characters are imo for the most part pretty terrible.

Well, save for Nightrunner, the French ones (that I could relate to, being a French myself) are rather uninspiring and more or less what Americans seems to think about France : Notre-Dames (Hunchback), aristocratic femmes fatales in strange clothes (Crimson Fox) etc. But then again, I admit that "super" heroes would probably be more military type here so not that interesting, especially in an arm race for metahumans soldiers (since we got the nuclear weapon despite American opposition to stand halfway between NATO and the Unaligned during Cold War). Besides vigilantes, I've a hard time picturing a French Super-Hero, really.

If you want more on the teams of international heroes, a lot of your answers are in one or the other story.

I stopped reading--the first team is already wrong. They are mixing up the People's Heroes with Red Trinity. Peoples' Heroes were Outsiders/Suicide Squad villains. (Hammer, Sickle, Bolshoi, Pravda, Molotov).

[philosopop]

no sign or mention of Beatriz Costa, aka Fire ?

Latin/Central America got snubbed.

A lot of these names are either dead, retired, or not in continuity. But you are right, in the Batwing run with David Zavimbe, Africa has a ton of random metahumans and superheroes (even had a reknowned panafrican superhero team) that they never address.

There are no set teams and this is talking about a metahuman arms race so alot of these superheroes are government affiliated or have ties to the government. Alot of the Heroes in africa have no ties to their specific countries governments and have fought them a few times so they would not be on this list.

Latin/Central America got snubbed.

She's part of the JLI so DC pretends she doesn't exist.

[Frontier]

She's part of the JLI so DC pretends she doesn't exist.

It's kind of ironic that in all these international teams we don't have any of the JLI represented here.

I mean, the Russian team doesn't even have a Rocket Red!

The Rocket Red Brigade arrested Hawk & Dove, so they are still definitely playing a big role in the Russian superhuman community. As for Dimitri, he's dead, isn't he?

Granted, so was Crimson Fox, who is the leader of Justice League Europe, which was a part of the JLI.

My guess is that Fire & Ice are being held back for something else. Perhaps there are plans afoot we aren't privy to *cough* Bendis *cough*
