First Team-Up of the Seven. Warning: Spoilers
Justice League. Secret Origins: Part II

First Team Up of the Seven.

In this episode we see our seven main heroes working together for the first time. While Batman and Superman get out of the government facilities that had been infiltrated by the alien force with J´onn, a martian whose knowledge could be mankind´s last hope, other four superheroes appear: Hawkgirl, Diana of Temyscira (Wonder Woman), the Green Lantern John Stewart and The Flash.

J´onn tells the story of how the alien force that is taking over Earth attacked Mars a long time ago and how the war against them leaved only one survivor that was J´onn himself.

In this episode we see these seven heroes reunite for the first time, even when it would be good to have much wider introductions to the powers and personalities of each one, it was nevertheless an interesting episode.

Similarly to Batman and Superman, this version of Green Lantern, John Stewart, seems to have a personality that is almost the opposite of the one of The Flash, being Stewart militarily rigid and The Flash relaxed and fun loving.

Important is to say, that with J´onn J' onzz who will be later known as Martian Manhunter, the team has an important back-up as he has many of the powers of Superman plus telepathy.

Also, even when John Stewart is maybe not the best Green Lantern or the most famous, the team wouldn´t be complete without someone from the Green Lantern corps inside of it and we have to admit that his military style gets the job done.

We also see a doubtful Diana taking the clothes that will be her Wonder-Woman costume from some kind of temple and in this sense, maybe the most interesting thing is what is not said by the plot, that between hundreds or even thousands of trained amazons, only Diana decided to help the mankind in those hard times of crisis.

Thanks for reading.
