Justice League Antarctica
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Justice League Antarctica is a fictional group of super heroes in the DC Comics Universe. A short-lived branch of the Justice League International, it was created when the incompetent Injustice League decided to switch sides. JLI's backer Maxwell Lord accepted their offer and sent them, along with G'nort (who, in turn, invited the Scarlet Skier) to Antarctica to get them out of the way. They spent most of their time battling a group of killer penguin/piranha hybrids. They won, but by only by destroying their entire base in an earthquake, surviving only thanks to G'Nort's power ring. They had to be rescued by the regular Justice League. Soon, they were fired. However, the team, though lacking an embassy, stayed together, acting as bodyguards for Maxwell Lord when he was in a gunshot-induced coma. They also joined the American and European Leagues, the team called the The Conglomerate, and the intergalactic bounty hunter Lobo in pitched battle against Despero. Afterwards, they finally departed from the League.
Although their membership was short, the storyline is official canon. The "JLAnt" (as Justice Leagues America and Europe called them) members were present when all members, past present and future, of both the League and the Avengers united to battle Krona in the JLA/Avengers mini-series.
