Justice League history

DC Comics writer Gardner Fox based the Justice League on DC’s earlier Justice Society of America. The group first appeared in the March 1960 DC Comics issue 28, “The Brave and the Bold.” Initial team members included Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, The Flash, Green Lantern, Aquaman and Martian Manhunter.

While other superheroes have since come and gone, the first members of the Justice League are iconic and beloved. In November of 1960, the team got its own comic book series titled Justice League of America.
