The Justice League includes almost all of DC’s heroes, from the most famous to lesser-known ones. This is logical, as the League is the main team defending the entire multiverse, and a larger team means stronger protection. While the Justice League is known for its most powerful and skilled heroes who take the lead in battles, many other heroes have also gained prominence and become more popular through their time with the team. Over the years, the Justice League has helped launch the careers of numerous heroes.
The Justice League has its heroes, but also some members who don’t quite live up to the hype. And then there are those we’d all prefer to forget – the seven worst members in the team’s history, who truly deserve to be erased from memory.
7) G’Nort
The Green Lanterns are known as the universe’s strongest heroes and have a long history with the Justice League, boasting famous members like Hal Jordan, John Stewart, Guy Gardner, Simon Baz, and Jessica Cruz. However, G’Nort is…different. Despite good intentions, he’s often clumsy and causes more problems than he solves, becoming a running joke among his teammates. They even once assigned him to the Justice League Antarctica outpost just to keep him away! While G’Nort can be amusing, he’s mostly irritating, and many wish he’d simply disappear.
6) Bloodwynd
Bloodwynd first appeared with the Justice League in the early 1990s. The character has been reimagined several times – even used as a secret identity for Martian Manhunter – and was generally portrayed as a mysterious hero with magical powers fueled by the Blood Gem. Though the character had interesting concepts, like one version being a descendant of slaves seeking revenge, Bloodwynd never quite fit in with the Justice League. He felt like a product of the edgy 1990s, and most fans have since forgotten about him.
5) General Glory
General Glory is essentially a copy of Captain America – a World War II soldier who gains super strength and invulnerability. He was intended as a humorous take on patriotic superheroes from the Golden Age, but the jokes didn’t quite hit the mark. Introduced in the early 1990s, the character never became popular. While General Glory might have worked well on his own, adding him to the main Justice League team was a misstep. He would have been a better fit for the more comedic Justice League International era, and might have been remembered more fondly if he’d joined the team back then, but sadly, that didn’t happen.
4) Vibe
Vibe was a superhero with the power to control vibrations, and he was also a breakdancer. While he had potential, he felt like a character created to capitalize on a short-lived trend, which rarely works well in comics, especially when the writers aren’t familiar with the culture. He was also part of the unpopular Justice League Detroit team. Though DC brought him back in the New 52’s *Justice League of America*, he didn’t quite succeed, and many feel the character has been repeatedly unsuccessful, so DC should probably stop trying to revive him.
3) Congorilla
Congorilla, also called Congo Bill, was a unique hero – a man whose spirit lived inside a super-strong, golden gorilla. He became part of the Justice League during a poorly received story arc called *Cry for Justice*, often ranked as one of the worst Justice League tales of recent times. While he formed a good connection with former hero Mikal Tomas (once Starman), Congorilla didn’t really fit in as a League member. Though an intriguing concept, the character himself wasn’t particularly memorable. Most Justice League fans dislike his time with the team, and his run ended with the New 52 reboot. It’s not surprising that many DC fans have completely forgotten Congorilla was ever a member – and honestly, that’s probably a good thing.
2) Darkseid
Darkseid is usually one of the Justice League’s biggest enemies, so it was incredibly strange when he actually became a member of the team. This happened in the comic series *Justice League Odyssey*, which took place after the *No Justice* storyline. After the Omega Titans were defeated, a new area called the Ghost Sector was created, and Darkseid joined Cyborg, Starfire, and Azrael to protect it and uncover its mysteries. While it was all a trick, the fact that Darkseid was *on* a Justice League team is something many DC fans try to forget. It doesn’t make much sense that the League would ever let Darkseid join, and the story itself hasn’t remained popular since it finished.
1) Azrael
Batman has worked with many different partners over the years, and Azrael is one of the most controversial. Originally a weapon of the Order of St. Dumas, Azrael was a harsh vigilante who briefly replaced Batman after Bane injured him. He embodies the gritty style of the 1990s and fits the dark atmosphere of Gotham City, but he’s not suited for a team like the Justice League. That’s why it always seemed odd that he was ever part of any Justice League lineup, particularly one that traveled to outer space. Azrael simply isn’t on the same level as most Justice League heroes, and even including him on a lesser-known team like the Odyssey was a poor choice.
