Everything You Need To Know About Justice League

Onscreen

Appearances of Justice League onscreen have to date been, for the most part, limited to animation – with the exception of appearances in the 1979 live-action TV series Legends Of The Superheroes, and brief appearances in Smallville. The most successful iteration of the team was arguably Super Friends – an animated series that ran from 1973 to 1986. Beyond that, the characters have featured in The Superman/Aquaman Hour Of Adventure in 1967, two seasons of Justice League for the Cartoon Network (re-worked as Justice League Unlimited for a further three seasons), and the cartoon Young Justice, which had its own follow-up titled Young Justice: Invasion.

Outside of its comic book origins, Justice League is perhaps most noted for its non-theatrical animated movies – much like team member Wonder Woman – with seven major releases from DC since 2008, as well as Lego Batman: The Movie – DC Superheroes Unite, and JLA Adventures: Trapped In Time. Original Justice League team members – with the exception of Martian Manhunter – also featured individually in The LEGO Movie.
