Fictional team history
[edit]The Justice League of Earth is a group of super-powered humans living on 31st-century Earth. They audition for the Legion of Super-Heroes, but are rejected due to their ineffective powers and psychosis. Earth-Man recruits the group, claiming that Superman is a human and convincing Earth to turn against him and other aliens.[1]
The Legion are branded as fugitives, after which the League attempts to hunt him down. In response, Timber Wolf and Lightning Lass establish an interstellar "Underground Railroad" for aliens to escape Earth.[2] The Legion ultimately defeats the League and imprisons them on Takron-Galtos.[3][4][5]
In Final Crisis, Earth Man, Golden Boy, Storm Boy, and Tusker join Superboy-Prime's Legion of Super-Villains.[6]
