By Michael Sacal
What You Should Know: Spinning out of events taking place in Justice Lrague Avengers, the JLE was formed with an eye towards the big picture, the problems that envolve not just Earth but the universe as a whole.
Its membership has changed along the way. The team has seen many members come and go, among them the New God called Orion, the fallen Angel Avengelyne and the Asgardian God Thor, as well as Franklin Richards, the most powerful telepath on the face of the Earth.
Its core membership has remain, however, a core that serves as the framework for the team as well as a link to its past.
What's Gonna Happen: In issue 8 the team returns from the Omniverse/Positive Zone conflict, having lost two of its members along the way.
The remaining members mount a membership drive to fill in the empty spots, but they are sidetracked by an attack by the Injustice Gang, an attack that leaves the team in shambles.
Down The Road: In issue 9 the JLE, along with its new members, is called to the planet Rann to stop an attack from an alien force that's changing the planet into something... else.
A sequel to the Apokolips/Asgard War which will answer all the unanswered questions from that event, like the identity of Darkseid's mysterious ally.
