Take a drink every time you see the word "justice".Justice League: Cry for Justice (2009-2010) is a seven-issue limited series written by James Robinson with one purpose in mind: to make a team that actively seeks justice rather than merely responding to the need for it. However, this only creates a thin line between Justice and Revenge.The story takes place after Final Crisis, where Green Lantern Hal Jordan begins to lose belief in what the team is fighting for, particularly justice. He and Green Arrow quit the Justice League and begin to hunt down villains and ensure that people like Libra would never take flight again.Meanwhile, numerous superheroes mourning the deaths of their friends all begin to think the same and wish for the same thing: justice. They join one another and decide to, as a group, attempt to bring justice to the world. Little do they know that this is going according to the plan of one villain: Prometheus.The series was originally planned to be an ongoing series and reinterpretation of the Justice League of America series and team, but DC executives eventually shortened it to seven issues, with the various characters and plot lines followed up in other series. | |

Strong as They Need to Be: Sometimes Prometheus can curb stomp the entire JLA in a few panels, including Wonder Woman, later he's beaten to a pulp by Donna Troy, who has Wonder Woman's exact power set and power level, and later he can barely hold his own against Badass Normal Roy Harper. | |

| Justice League: Cry for Justice (Comic Book) / int_14beeefd | comment |
Darker and Edgier: The series was an attempt to make the Justice League proactive and, well, edgier. This has been done before (Justice League Detroit, Justice League Task Force, Extreme Justice), and has certainly been done better (Justice League Elite). | |

Villains Act, Heroes React | |
| Justice League: Cry for Justice (Comic Book) / int_2064626a | comment |
Villains Act, Heroes React: The theme of the series is its protagonists' refusal to accept this doctrine, as Hal Jordan and Green Arrow initially leave the League because they are tired of simply waiting around for a villain to commit a crime and then cleaning up the aftermath. At no point do they propose a course of action that might somehow prevent crime from being committed in the first place. | |

Back for the Dead | |
| Justice League: Cry for Justice (Comic Book) / int_241ca0d8 | comment |
Back for the Dead: The book pulls a lot of characters who had not been seen or mentioned for years (sometimes decades) back for the sole purposes of killing them off. Maybe most egregiously, the Three Stooges Shout-Out, Winky, Blinky and Noddy, who had gotten exactly one mention since 1947, and were killed offscreen. | |

Bury Your Gays | |
| Justice League: Cry for Justice (Comic Book) / int_2a8a7ea6 | comment |
Bury Your Gays: Mikaal Thomas' lover was killed, and that killing is what set him on the path for justice in the first place. Likewise, D-list gay hero and former Global Guardians member Tasmanian Devil is killed and turned into a throw rug for Prometheus's manor, just to show off how badass he is. However, it turns out in a follow-up comic that the Devil's body was kept in stasis, he's tossed into a Lazarus Pit, and he comes back - with hints that he and Mikaal might get together. | |

C-List Fodder | |
| Justice League: Cry for Justice (Comic Book) / int_2f4d2172 | comment |
C-List Fodder: Prometheus stated that (off panel, by the way) he killed several members of the Global Guardians. Also "Blood Pack", a "new" team made up of old Dark-and-Bronze-age characters. And Preston Payne, the third Clayface. Notable in that he serves as a Sacrificial Lamb for the B-list modern Clayface, as the character (last seen in a 1994 comic) is turned into an Expy of the more recent version as part of a trap, then unceremoniously killed off to prove the villain's vileness (just in case the last half-dozen killings hadn't gotten it across). | |

Hollywood Law | |
| Justice League: Cry for Justice (Comic Book) / int_3322dd48 | comment |
Hollywood Law: Apparently, if you have a criminal record a costumed vigilante doesn't need to catch you committing a crime or have any evidence that you have done or were planning to do so to be well within his rights to beat you senseless and arrest you. Any sane judge would overturn virtually every "arrest" Hal and Ollie make in this series, if it got to court at all. However, what they don't make clear is whether or not these criminals are out legally or not. If they are out legally, then preemptively hunting them down is not justice because they haven't done anything wrong, at least as far as you can prove. If they are out illegally, then why aren't they being tracked down and put in jail, and why would the heroes complain about having to wait until they commit a crime, when they are already committing a crime just by being outside of jail? | |

Villain Decay: Deconstructed. Prometheus, a supposed Justice League-level villain that originally challenged the entire League, has been easily defeated in almost all subsequent appearances and despite retaining the same power and skills. This series explains that all those appearances were an impostor posing as Prometheus and follows the original's efforts to regain his reputation and exact revenge. This Retcon happened in a one shot before this mini came out. | |

Revenge: Much of the "justice" that the group asks for is simple, and personal, revenge. Their actions do not support or heal those who have been injured, do not rehabilitate or judge those responsible, and are not in accordance with established laws or customs. They are instead the simple act of hurting people that have hurt them. | |

Unwitting Instigator of Doom: Green Arrow and Hal Jordan's desire to stop waiting for villains to act and be more "proactive" only ends horribly for them and those involved with their crusade. All it does is grant Prometheus an opening to get to the Hall of Justice by impersonating Freddy Freeman and convincing the group they need to reconvene with the main Justice League in order to better figure out the villains' goals. Which then leads to Red Arrow losing an arm and his life spiraling down the drain from there as Prometheus makes fools of everyone. | |

One notable example being an implication that Hal Jordan had a drunken threesome with Huntress and Lady Blackhawk of the Birds of Prey. Gail later shot down the implication in issue #6 of the new Birds ongoing, with the revelation that Hal just got drunk and passed out. | |

Too Dumb to Live | |
| Justice League: Cry for Justice (Comic Book) / int_b58b4e3c | comment |
Once the heroes have captured Prometheus, they tie him up... and put his helmet, the source of all his powers, back on his head. And if Donna Troy destroying it wasn't an artist mistake, they repaired it first. | |

New Powers as the Plot Demands | |
| Justice League: Cry for Justice (Comic Book) / int_c26e2b1 | comment |
New Powers as the Plot Demands: Captain Marvel's lightning usually just changes him from his civilian form to superhero, and can be used offensively against people with a vulnerability to magic, e.g. Supergirl, and then suddenly he can use it to make a shield, protecting people (including Supergirl) from an explosion. Justified since he's Prometheus and it's not the same magic. A strange case of Supergirl getting a new weakness. Apparently, her being close to magic pretty much has the same effect as Kryptonite, if not worse. This is never brought up again. Magic is a fairly standard established weakness for Kryptonians on Earth. Because of the general lack of Kryptonite around the planet, it's pretty much regarded as one of the few things that can give Superman real trouble, and is part of the classic Superman/Captain Marvel rivalry. However, this is usually portrayed as Kryptonians being as vunerable to magic as a human would be, not adversely affected by magical energy in and of itself. But that's how she figures out "Captain Marvel" isn't using real magic lightning. | |

Shout-Out: Prometheus explains why he is telling the heroes his master plan and why they can't stop him (along with, presumably, illustrating what comic the writers tried to emulate): | |

Legacy Character | |
| Justice League: Cry for Justice (Comic Book) / int_c9e5a0db | comment |
And Preston Payne, the third Clayface. Notable in that he serves as a Sacrificial Lamb for the B-list modern Clayface, as the character (last seen in a 1994 comic) is turned into an Expy of the more recent version as part of a trap, then unceremoniously killed off to prove the villain's vileness (just in case the last half-dozen killings hadn't gotten it across). | |

Race Lift: Vixen and (the current) Firestorm, both black super-heroes, appear white in this story. Likely a coloring error and not a conscious editing choice. | |

Concepts Are Cheap | |

Concepts Are Cheap: The main characters begin seeking justice without defining what it means, how it is different from the ideals and actions of the Justice League, or how it is different from a different concept all together. | |
