About the series
During its 1997–2006 run, DC's JLA redefined the Justice League for a new era, blending cosmic-scale heroics with sharp character dynamics. The series is most closely associated with Grant Morrison and Howard Porter's visionary opening arc, which restored the team to its iconic "Big Seven" lineup, while later runs by Mark Waid, Joe Kelly, and artists like Doug Mahnke and Bryan Hitch kept the title at the forefront of superhero storytelling. Across 19 issues, it balanced blockbuster action with thoughtful takes on the team's role as Earth's mightiest protectors, leaving a lasting mark on how the League is portrayed.
