[livejournal.com profile] stegoking posted his ideal JLA lineup in an earlier entry in my LJ, and of course it's ludicrous. Here's who belongs and doesn't belong in the JLA:

OK, first of all, you cannot have the entire DC hero population in the JLA. Sorry, Stego. It's got to be, like, 8 or 9 heroes tops.

Next, some rules:

No New Gods.
No Teen Titans, current or former.
Nobody that isn't tough enough to take a hit from, say, a speeding truck (except Batman).
Nobody that has had sex with Dick Grayson (except Batman).
Nobody whose secret identity isn't old enough to have pubes yet.
Nobody with a "boob window" in their costume.
Nobody that belongs in the JSA, like Ollie Queen or Dinah.
No robots.
Nobody with "tornado powers".
No robots with "tornado powers".
Nobody with their head on fire.
Nobody with a stupid haircut.
Nobody who may detonate at any moment and need a containment suit to keep them from killing their loved ones.
No conservative Republicans, especially black ones.

Which leaves:

Superman (Clark Kent)
Wonder Woman (Diana Prince)
Batman (Bruce Wayne)
Martian Manhunter
Green Lantern (Jordan or Stewart, but NOT Rayner or Gardner)
Flash (Barry or Wally)
Aquaman (Arthur Curry)

To fill the eighth slot I'd be ok with The Atom (I guess the white one, since the assholes killed off the Asian guy), Zatanna, Plastic Man or (in a real stretch) Dr. Light.
