I really, REALLY disliked this issue, the JLA swooping in like they are some sort of cosmically appointed adjudicators of the right of other teams to exist leaves a very, very sour taste.
Especially given the JLA has hardly been the embodiment of harmonious conduct, especially when it comes to team discipline. It's condescending and just... a bad story idea. IMHO.
Bruce critiquing Dick's leadership style is just... nope, don't go there Bruce. They don't interact like the JLA does, because they're not the JLA, they actually stay together because they LIKE each other, and Dick leads by trust (mostly). You don't get to say that that's not how it's done, at best you get to say that's not how you'd do it.
Founded by girl geeks and members of the slash fandom, scans_daily strives to provide an atmosphere which is LGBTQ-friendly, anti-racist, anti-ableist, woman-friendly and otherwise discrimination and harassment free.
Bottom line: If slash, feminism or anti-oppressive practice makes you react negatively, scans_daily is probably not for you.
