DC Comics. Justice League of America, Vol. 7: Team History by James Robinson Justice League of America: Team History Justice League is an organization comprised of the world's most powerful super-heroes dedicated to fighting crime and injustice. They work together as a team and a strike-force, acting as Earth's first line of defense against terrestrial, extra- terrestrial, supernatural and inter-dimensional threats. This collection of heroes staved the Martian invasion, and while the group did not officially form at this time, it was later realized after the case was reviewed Justice League of America: Team History later by the Green Arrow that all the founding members, including Hal Jordan who at the time had yet to become Earth's Green Lantern were present. The official formation of the Justice League began when Earth was invaded by Appellaxian warriors sent to the planet to see who could conquer Earth first, as a means of determining who would become the new ruler of their home planet. While most of the Appellaxian invaders were defeated by the superheroes individually, the heroes themselves fell prey one by one to a single competitor's attack; they soon discovered that only by working together could they defeat the competitor. Superman and Batman joined them in defeating the remaining Appellaxians. Afterwards, the group decided that they should form a permanent organization to confront menaces that required a similar pooling of resources, and dubbed themselves the Justice League of America. In their first recorded adventure Justice League recruited both Superman and Batman into their ranks and set up a secret base just outside of Happy Harbor. Their earliest battle was when Happy Harbor was invaded by Starro the Conquerer a gigantic space alien shaped like a Justice League of America: Team History fish that could control the minds of people with miniature duplicates. When they find that Happy Harbor resident Lucas "Snapper" Carr was not taken over by Starro due to the lime solution that was spread on Snapper's lawn, the Justice League easily defeated Starro. Following this adventure Snapper was made an honorary member of the team and accompanied them on many other adventures. When the group was enslaved by Kanjar Roan evil alien from outer space, [8] they were rescued by Adam Strange who became a regular ally of the group. This, however, was in order to prevent the group from being killed by Dr. Destiny who was posing as the Green Lantern. The league succeeded, but the demons would be freed years in the future. The League defeated the demons Justice League of America: Team History switching appearances to throw them off. The group next defeated Dr. Light[17] and battle robot duplicates of themselves on the planet Skran. Amos Fortune, now calling himself Mr. Davis and the Joker against the League. In doing so they also attempted to manipulate the Atom in their plot, however, the Justice League would defeat them and invite the Atom to join their group. With the Atom on their team, they would prevent the merging of Earth with a parallel universe, [20] battle the Tornado Tyrant, [21] save the micro-world of Starzl from their former guardians, [22] foil Dr. Destiny's plot to exile the Justice League from Earth, [23] and destroy the gigantic robot Spaceman X. The Justice League would soon learn of the existence of Earth-Twoa parallel world that has its own team of heroes the Justice Society of Americawhen both Earth-One and Earth-Two are menaced by the Crime Championscriminals from both dimensions. Next, the Justice League would become enslaved by the alien empress Queen Bee but manage to escape her control. The Justice League would be forced to picket the United Nations when a ban on using Justice League of America: Team History super-powers is motioned. The League, however, finds out that this was due to the master plan organized by Headmaster Mind and his henchmen Matter MasterTattooed Man and the Top. The JLA crushes their plot and ends the ban on the use of their powers. The League would next get into their possession a tape recorded by Superman's father Jor-El that outlines worlds that he considered sending his son before finally choosing Earth.

    Earth-11 Jumpchain Yes, this is just for waifus This is a world of superhumans and aliens, one that may seem very familiar at first. However, this isn’t the normal world of DC Comics. No, this is one of its parallel dimensions, one where everybody is an opposite-gender reflection of their mainline counterparts. It’s largely the same besides that one difference, so the events that happened in the primary universe are likely to have happened here as well. The battle between good and evil continues on as it always does, on Earth, in space, and in other dimensions. Superwoman, Batwoman, Wonder Man, and the rest of the Justice League fight to protect the Earth from both from it’s own internal crime and corruption and from extraterrestrial threats. The Guardians of the Universe head the Green Lantern Corps to police the 3800 sectors of outer space, of which Kylie Rayner is one of the premier members. On New Genesis and Apokolips in the Fourth World, Highmother and Darkseid, the Black Queen vie for power, never quite breaking from their ancient stalemate.

Before the limited series Crisis on Infinite Earthsthe two iconic characters were depicted as the best of friends. After the first 13 issues, most of the story arcs were independent and self-contained from the ongoing or Superman / Batman: Vengeance storylines in the other Batman and Superman comic titles. Twenty-six writers and artists who knew Sam worked on the issue, donating their fees and royalties for the issue to the Sam Loeb College Scholarship Fund. LoebSuperman / Batman: Vengeance wrote Superman for two years before the launch of the title, wrote the book for the first two years of its publication. Unlike later writers, Loeb's work on the book lasted for several storylines, which were interconnected. President Lex Luthor declares Superman and Batman enemies of the state, claiming that a Kryptonite asteroid headed for Earth is connected to an evil Superman / Batman: Vengeance by Superman. Superman almost kills Lex, with Batman standing aside. Superman changes his mind at the last moment. The new Superman / Batman: VengeanceHiro Okamura, assists with the asteroid's destruction. Captain Atom is seemingly killed. Luthor is defeated and appears to die in the battle, although he is shown to survive.

  • USING GRAPHIC NOVELS with CHILDREN and TEENS a Guide for Teachers and Librarians Using Graphic Novels with Children and Teens a Guide for Teachers and Librarians
    USING GRAPHIC NOVELS WITH CHILDREN AND TEENS A Guide for Teachers and Librarians USING Graphic NOVELS with CHILDREN AND TEENS A Guide for Teachers and Librarians Graphic NOVELS ARE hot! No longer an underground movement appealing to a small following of enthusiasts, graphic novels have emerged as a growing segment of book publishing, and have become accepted by librarians and educators as mainstream literature for children and young adults­­ literature that powerfully motivates kids to read. Are graphic novels for you? Should you be taking a more serious look at this format? How might graphic novels fit into your library collection, your curriculum, and your classroom? Want to know more? If so, this guide is for you. Art © 2010 Jeff Smith 2 What are graphic novels? In this context, the word “graphic” does not mean “adult” or “explicit.” Graphic novels are books written and illustrated in the style of a comic book. The term graphic novel was first popularized by Will Eisner to distinguish his book A Contract with God (1978) from collections of newspaper comic strips. He described graphic novels as consisting of “sequential art”—a series of illustrations which, when viewed in order, tell a story. Although today’s graphic novels are a recent phenomenon, this basic way of storytelling has been used in various forms for centuries—early cave drawings, hieroglyphics, and medieval tapestries like the famous Bayeux Tapestry can be thought of as stories told in pictures. The term graphic novel is now generally used to describe any book in a comic format that resembles a novel in length and narrative development.
