| Justice League International (Comic Book) | comment |
The Justice League International (or "JLI") was the Post-Crisis version of the Justice League of America. Starting with Justice League #1 (May, 1987), it gained its more familiar title with issue #7 (November, 1987).By that time, comic books were getting Darker and Edgier, and most of the "Big Seven" heroes of DC Comics were unavailable for varied reasons. So writers Keith Giffen and J.M. DeMatteis had to work with a cast of mostly minor characters, including such nonsuperpowered heroes as Blue Beetle and Mister Miracle. What to do then? Giffen had a great idea: instead of going Darker and Edgier, they went Lighter and Softer, turning the comic book into a super hero comedy. Yes, they get to fight against vampires, Mad Scientists, dictators, giant Nazi robots, alien invasions and the like, but most of their plots dealt with completely bizarre situations: Guy Gardner and Ice having a date at an ice show, the heroes go to school to learn French, Blue Beetle and Booster Gold build a casino at a paradise island, or the mayhem at both their embassies caused by... an alley cat (yes, they made a 2-issue crossover with that). They were also used to fight Harmless Villains and Ineffectual Sympathetic Villains, and had to deal with annoying "good guys" as G'Nort or The Beefeater. All that being said, the book could and did get quite dark, and these dark times were often more affecting, precisely because of the overall light tone of the book; also, the dark times were also often the funniest, at least to some readers.The initial cast (Batman, Martian Manhunter, Guy Gardner, Blue Beetle, Black Canary, Doctor Fate, Captain Marvel, Mister Miracle and his sidekick Oberon) got new members afterwards, such as Booster Gold or Fire and Ice (from the Global Guardians, a Multinational Team that the United Nations disbanded to form the JLI). Following the events of Invasion! (DC Comics), a new Justice League title was launched, Justice League Europe (JLE), with Captain Atom, Power Girl, Metamorpho, The Flash, Ralph Dibny (Elongated Man) and his wife Sue, Rocket Red, and Animal Man, while the original JLI was renamed "Justice League America" (no "of" in there, oddly enough). All teams were managed by Maxwell Lord, a crooked but ultimately good-hearted man. (He was turned into an evil villain during the Countdown to Infinite Crisis, but was not a villain at all back then, except when controlled by an evil computer). During this time, another series launched, Justice League Quarterly, a four-issue-a-year series with extra pages to tell longer stories starring the heroes.After nearly five years, Giffen and DeMatteis decided to do a Grand Finale to their run, entitled Breakdowns, which saw the two teams disband after a series of incidents. This was followed up by Justice League Spectacular, which set up the new status quo by introducing the new members of the League... which were the same as the old ones, except Superman was now on the America team replacing the Martian Manhunter and Hal Jordan on the Europe team replacing Captain Atom. Sadly, the America team wouldn't stay stable thanks to getting involved in The Death of Superman, leading to Wonder Woman leading a seemingly rotating team. In 1993, the Martian Manhunter headlined a fourth title, Justice League Task Force, which had the Martian creating teams for missions given by the United Nations, even getting involved in the KnightQuest: The Search storyline.After a series events that included the death of Ice and the appearance of a mysterious hero called Triumph, the Zero Hour: Crisis in Time! event saw a massive shake-up. JLA became something of a clubhouse of sorts, letting anyone show up and take part in adventures while JLTF became a X-Men-style training team. The Justice League Europe title, which had been rebranded to another Justice League International, was cancelled and replaced with Extreme Justice, which saw Captain Atom creating his own rival Justice League as he felt Wonder Woman's team wasn't the "real" League. Sadly, the shake-ups weren't enough and all three titles were cancelled and soon, JLA (1997) was launched with Grant Morrison reuniting the Big Seven (or at the very least, the Big Five and Two Legacy Character replacements)These folks returned in the Super Buddies duology, which consisted of the miniseries "Formerly Known as the Justice League" and "I Can't Believe It's Not the Justice League". As the "real" Justice League was now in operation, they were named "The Super Buddies" instead.The team was reunited by Judd Winick in the well-received Justice League: Generation Lost maxi-series, albeit with the new Blue Beetle and Rocket Red filling in for their deceased predecessors. In 2011, DC's New 52 relaunch rebooted DC's continuity. The JLI's history was completely removed from continuity, but a new Justice League International series was launched. It featured many of the same characters, as well as Vixen, Godiva and August General in Iron. Despite decent sales, the series was cancelled in order to launch a new Justice League of America title, and ended with an Annual issue in September 2012 to finish the story. After the DC Rebirth crossover Superman Reborn, the original team's history was partly restored to canon.A version of the team was also featured in Batman: The Brave and the Bold, brought together by Batman in the season 2 finale to combat Darkseid's invasion of Earth (the original League having broken up off screen). This version initially consists of Booster, Blue Beetle III, Fire, Ice, AQUAMAN, Martian Manhunter and Batman; subsequent episodes show that Captain Marvel, Captain Atom and Rocket Red joined too. | |

Captain Ersatz | |
| Justice League International (Comic Book) / int_25b5600 | comment |
Captain Ersatz: There were many characters modeled after others from Marvel Comics. First, the Justifiers (The Avengers), who were Silver Sorceress, Blue Jay and Wandjina (Scarlet Witch, Yellowjacket and Thor; other Avengers appeared in backstories). The Silver Sorceress and Blue Jay even became members of the JLE. Their enemies were the Extremists (no specific Marvel group), composed of Lord Havoc (Doctor Doom), Dreamslayer (Dormammu), Gorgon (Doctor Octopus), Tracer (Sabretooth) and Dr. Diehard (Magneto). Then the Scarlet Skier (Silver Surfer) and his master Mr. Nebula (Galactus). And, finally, General Glory (Captain America). The Rocket Reds are Russian, mass-produced imitations of Iron Man. Blue Beetle was one for Spider-Man. The artist would even draw him crouching, running on all fours, and hanging upside-down for no reason. | |

| Justice League International (Comic Book) / int_2edccd64 | comment |
Love the Product, Hate the Producer: JLI Team Member Red Rocket aka Gavril Ivanovich plays this trope straight. He was a captain in the Rocket Red Brigade, but resigned out of disgust with Russia's continuing Westernization and took to becoming a revolutionary bent on destroying "all the corporate cancer and traitors" that had rotted his nation: western influences such as fast food chains and corporate businesses. Despite this, he is a long-standing admirer of the American-formed JLI and their merchandise and jumped with glee at the chance to team up with them. | |

| Justice League International (Comic Book) / int_420c50b7 | comment |
A.I. Is a Crapshoot: The origin story of Maxwell Lord. He was a successful businessman, and found by chance the computer of Metron. Rather than using the computer for his purposes, the computer used Lord to Take Over the World (including his initial relations with the League). When he realized the true nature of the computer, Lord destroyed it, even if that meant that he would die afterwards because the computer was keeping him alive. The League found him and saved his life, and when the Martian Manhunter read Lord's mind and understood the things he did, J'onn left him with a JL card, as a token of his trust. | |

Butt-Monkey: Fans of Captain Marvel or Animal Man will not like this comic. The former's naive optimism is constantly joked about by the other team members, and the latter's powers are treated as completely useless. | |

The Resenter | |
| Justice League International (Comic Book) / int_483152c4 | comment |
The Resenter: When Superman is revived and back to full power, the League immediately runs to him and asks him to return to the team. However, when Superman turned them down due to being occupied with the state of things during his supposed death, they took it quite hard. Maxima snaps at him when he comes running for help in Superman/Doomsday: Hunter/Prey. | |

Surveillance as the Plot Demands | |
| Justice League International (Comic Book) / int_48b01c26 | comment |
Surveillance as the Plot Demands: Deconstructed. A secret villain organization captures the ugly cat, installs a camera in his eye, and returns him to the embassy, so that they can learn the secrets of the Justice League Europe! Or not. After that expensive operation, they spent months watching the cat drinking water from the toilet, playing in the garbage, sleeping at weird places, trying to eat Blue Jay, etc, etc. | |

| Justice League International (Comic Book) / int_57766abe | comment |
Comic Books Are Real: General Glory is Guy Gardner's favourite comic book character. That's a real American, not that flying boy scout who isn't even from this planet! And one day, he got the last remaining comic book of General Glory. Some old folk was annoying him to let him have a brief look at it, and Gardner finally let him. He located the magic words, which he had forgot during years of amnesia, and turned into General Glory! | |

Reassigned to Antarctica | |
| Justice League International (Comic Book) / int_5798bfbf | comment |
Reassigned to Antarctica: The Injustice League, after trying for One Last Job only to end up foiling a robbery by a group of terrorists at the same location, decide to go straight and turn to the JLI for help. Max decides that since things tend to go insane when they get involved, he would bring them on using this trope, literally reassigning them to Antarctica and packing G'nort away. This goes about as well as you'd expect, with mutant penguins attacking within days of the new branch starting, though Major Disaster does end up beating them with an avalanche when both branches of the JLI couldn't... albeit destroying JLAntarctica's headquarters in the process | |

Slice of Life: Often a source of humor in the series: it treated its characters as real people with quirks and flaws that we don't associate with superheroes. Even Martian Manhunter gained an addiction for... Oreos. (especially with caviar.) Another recurring subplot was Blue Beetle and Booster Gold constantly being broke. The two would either do freelance hero jobs or attempt grand get-rich-quick schemes to make money. As noted under Big Eater, Beetle constantly struggled with his weight. | |

Corrupted Character Copy | |
| Justice League International (Comic Book) / int_922ec657 | comment |
Corrupted Character Copy: The miniseries Lord Havok and the Extremists, to make a version of DC's Marvel-villain expies appear as almost the good guys, presents the Meta-Militia as every negative aspect of The Avengers, and especially The Ultimates, turned up to eleven. Tin Man (Iron Man) pushes a version of the Superhuman Registration Act that puts all metas in interment camps unless they join the Militia, then uses this to get elected President. Americommando (Captain America) is a former black ops agent, who succeeds Tin Man and takes advantage of the positon, while secretly still controlled by his military handlers. Blue Jay (Ant-Man) is almost completely crippled with self-doubt except when the Raven armor turns him psychotic. Wandajina (Thor) is probably the most stable, with his supposed affair with Gorgon's lab assistant being entirely in the Doc Ock expy's paranoid mind, so naturally he gets killed. Gorgon himself is the "purer(?)" character copy of Doc Ock, as he still immoral but hasn't been driven so mad an accident with his equipment as to commit mass murder to prove his superiority, as Doc Ock sought to do in his first issue of Spider-Man. | |

Not Me This Time | |
| Justice League International (Comic Book) / int_95b875b1 | comment |
Not Me This Time After a battle during the Invasion! crossover, Mr. Miracle is cleaning the debris of a fallen alien starship, while Guy Gardner is kicking things around, with no regards for the possible consequences. Mr. Miracle tells him that if he's not careful he can make a big disaster, kicking things like that... and, suddenly, the world turns black & white. Not because of Gardner, just another attack of the aliens, which was happening worldwide. Nemesis is captured and jailed by the Soviets, and Batman wants the League to invade Russia, go to that prison and free Nemesis. Everyone else says "no", and then, Oberon announces that the president has called: a group of villains is going to attack that very same prison, and the League has been summoned to provide protection. Exactly what Batman wanted to do in the first place. Contrary to the rumors started by Blue Beetle, Batman didn't pay those villains to do this. | |

Identity Amnesia: Tired of having Batman in command, Guy Gardner challenges him to a fight. Batman knocks him out with a single punch. When Guy wakes up, he tries to retrieve his ring from beneath a desk, and gets a second Tap on the Head. When he wakes up from that, he's a new Guy Gardner, interested in poetry, good feelings, friendship, being respectful and nice to everyone... in short, everything that Guy Gardner is not. He stays that way for several months (even across the ''Millennium (1988) crossover), and then returned to his true self against Lobo. | |

Beetle himself is no slouch in this department, failing to pick up a woman even in costume at his own resort. The Flash when it comes to his fellow superheroes. Power Girl just tended to either be annoyed by it or ignore it while Fire threatened him. | |

He became so disgusted with the brash, crude nature of his teammates that he quit the League in a matter of days. Dr. Fate's jab about SoCal being made up of mindless drones with no free will like the zombie-like people he was attacked by. | |

People Puppets | |
| Justice League International (Comic Book) / int_b5fb096b | comment |
People Puppets: Happened several times. The Grey Man controlled Captain Marvel and fought against the Martian Manhunter, who took him down hard (not realizing that Marvel was freed seconds ago). Starro, of course, is a JLA classic, and controlled the JLE, the Martian Manhunter and all of Britain (except the Clash and the Sex Pistols), before being defeated by Ice. Dreamslayer controls Maxwell Lord and many members of both Leagues, until his spirit is killed by the Silver Sorceress. Queen Bee uses this on many Bialyans, the Global Guardians and other influential people she could capture. And yes, Maxwell Lord had this power. But, contrary to the Maxwell Lord seen in DC since Countdown to Infinite Crisis, he hardly ever used it (especially since it's really difficult for him). The first time, he manipulated Blue Beetle without even being aware he had such power. He used it to make the Huntress join the League (which was indeed wrong, but he realized it himself and let her go). He used it on a girl he liked to begin talking (just that). And hardly anything else (the things done under the control of Dreamslayer don't count). | |

Shoo Out the New Guy: Dr. Light (the female one, from Crisis on Infinite Earths) was supposed to be a member of the team, being featured at the front page of the first issue and all. But she played a very minor role, wasn't even in costume, and left at the beginning of the 4th issue. Then, she returned at the Grand Finale... only to play an even smaller role and leave again. (She got slightly more to do when she joined the JLE.) Dr. Fate does this twice. He's also on the cover of the first issue and barely appears after that. About half an issue is dedicated to Fate (now with a female body) rejoining the League, but again, she almost never shows up after that. | |

America Saves the Day | |
| Justice League International (Comic Book) / int_c515d358 | comment |
America Saves the Day: Subverted. The suffix "International" instead of "Of America" is not just a name, but a plot element, as the team is endorsed by the UN, had a related team located in Europe and embassies in other countries. It is highly specific when the U.S. sends the supergroup "The Conglomerate" to depose a Latin American dictator, and the UN orders the JLI to stop the Conglomerate. Deconstructed during JLE. The fact the team is made up of mostly Americans and one Russian at first is a bone of contention with the French, where the JLE's initial embassy is. The fact none of them outside The Elongated Man and Rocket Red 5 (Said Russian) know the language does not help. | |

Screw This, I'm Outta Here | |
| Justice League International (Comic Book) / int_d9cf40fa | comment |
Screw This, I'm Outta Here: Quite a few moments: Batman would leave the team after issue #13 due to their fight with the Suicide Squad. He'd come back briefly (unexplained), then leave again. Hawkman and Hawkwoman would leave after issue #24 due to how annoying the team is. Booster Gold would quit the team to start up the Conglomerate. | |

The Cavalry | |
| Justice League International (Comic Book) / int_d9e9ad7e | comment |
The Cavalry: Double subverted in the first JLI-JLE crossover. Overwhelmed by vampires, Rocket Red tells Captain Atom that it would be a good moment for the arrival of the cavalry. Atom says he's seen too many American films, and that no cavalry's coming because This Is Reality. And then... the JLI arrive, with Blue Beetle even saying "the cavalry is here!" | |

All Girls Want Bad Boys | |
| Justice League International (Comic Book) / int_db2f3581 | comment |
All Girls Want Bad Boys: Ice simply loves Guy Gardner, much to Fire's despair. Interestingly It's not Guy's "bad boy" personality that Ice likes, but the nice guy that occasionally shines through. | |

Start My Own: At one point, Booster Gold gets tired of being the butt of jokes and allies himself with the ex-wife of Max Lord to start The Conglomerate. The team falls apart during the Breakdowns storyline, but the ex-wife goes on to create two other teams. | |

Reasonable Authority Figure | |
| Justice League International (Comic Book) / int_dca70c44 | comment |
Reasonable Authority Figure: Cap Atom. Early, Power Girl was injured fighting the Grey Man. Catherine, who at that point was still Cap's secretary, decided to go over his head and order a very dangerous surgery performed, as that was the only way to save Power Girl's life; Cap had been unable to bring himself to give the order because he was afraid it would kill her. She assumed that Cap would be furious and was prepared to tender her resignation. Instead, he just told her that she had made the right call and thanked her for doing it. | |

Audience Participation | |
| Justice League International (Comic Book) / int_dd91f8d8 | comment |
Audience Participation: The post-Breakdowns Leagues was decided by reader votes. However, people seemed not to understand what to do and somehow voted for virtually the same exact people on the same teams, with one notable exception being Superman on the JLA team... which lasts less than a year thanks to The Death of Superman. | |

Continuity Snarl | |
| Justice League International (Comic Book) / int_df582b0b | comment |
Continuity Snarl: The first annual does not fit in the timeline of the ongoing regular issues. It can't be before #14, because Fire and Ice are already members. It can't be between #14 and #15, because the action continues right away, and the JLI cann't be having a barbecue at Mister Miracle's garden while there is an alien invasion going on (we hope). And it can't be after #15, because there Mister Miracle is captured and sent to Apokolips. | |

Flanderization | |
| Justice League International (Comic Book) / int_e5e6640b | comment |
Flanderization: Most mainstays of the Giffen-era suffered heavy Flanderization; that was sort of the whole point of the books. A notable aversion occurs with, of all people, Guy Gardner. Giffen and DeMatteis were concerned with how much Flanderization had already occurred with the character, who initially was more intelligent than Hal Jordan, but by the time of joining the JLI was mostly famous as a Jerkass with severe brain damage. A punch from Batman sends Guy into an alternate, hyper-sensitive persona, eventually revealed to be a total con, as Guy enjoyed screwing with his teammates. His girlfriend, Ice, sees through it. In a surprising moment of Self-Deprecation, the original writing team actually addressed their Flanderization in the reunion mini-series Formerly Known as the Justice League. In one of the more memorable moments, Blue Beetle actually calls out Booster Gold by claiming that he used to be competent and heroic before joining the JLI, and accuses him of acting stupid and childish on purpose. | |
