The big guns in the superhero world find that fighting aliens is a whole lot tougher than battling plain old earthly villains, so they join together under the moniker Justice League in this hour-long Cartoon Network offering. When Superman is duped into disarming the planet's warheads, huge buglike creatures land in several of earth's major cities and systematically begin destroying them, impervious to remaining weaponry. The conflict pits Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, the Flash, Green Lantern, Hawk Girl, and interstellar refugee Martian Manhunter against the evil aliens. They're the same shape-changing beings that desecrated the Manhunter's home planet centuries before, which gives the wise Martian insight into their mad methods. This series marks a departure from the dark, more adult-themed superhero series and a return to the more simple good-versus-evil plot lines, making it both appropriate and palatable for ages 6 and up.
When global catastrophe strikes, the World's Greatest Super Heroes answer the call to join Justice League. Justice League works together as a team to overcome a dangerous array of intersteller invaders and world conquering megalomaniacs.
