JLA Most Valuable Player

1. Superman
2. Martian Manhunter
3. Green Lantern (Kyle)
4. Flash
5. Wonder Woman (Access to Equipment)
6. Batman (Access to Equipment and All Non-JLA Resources)

* Who is the most valuable player in this Justice League team?

* Also, who is the least valuable member?

I'm talking about overall, so Batman's smarts, resources and prep stuff does factor in, although this doesn't necessarily prevent him from being the least valuable.

* If you could add one more member (Marvel or DC, Mid Herald Heroes or below) to the team, who would you add and why?

For example, Captain Atom for Energy manipulation (Mmm.. Syngery with Superman, supplying him Yellow sun radiation 🙂), or Juggernaut just to have another tank on the team etc.

Batman is the most valuable.

Batman & Superman.

Superman/Batman for MVP

Wonder Woman for LVP sorry but with Supes on the team she is basically not needed. everyone else brings something more to the table. MM telepathy, GL versatility, and Flash just OMGWTFPWNZ Speed.

I would add Thor to the team just for the fun of it.

Whoops just noticed that it said Mid-Herald or below in which case I'll add Beta Ray Bill

Is there a tangible reason Superman is most valuable other than his name? Seriously. The JLA can exist without him as a leader. Are there truly problems they wouldn't be able to tackle without him around.

Yes, Bats is the most valuable. I'd venture to say that Superman is the least. Flash's speed, MM's telepathy, GL can call in teh Corps if needed, they all bring something massive to the table. Kal doesn't.

he isn't the leader, and hasn't been chairperson since the morrison days. that's not why he's around.

MV would be a GL imo.
A GL is probably the most versatile hero in DC.

LV would be Wondy or Supes.
MM is basically a Supes with TP.

I would add Alexander Luthor, Jr.
Cause he is superior to at least 2-3 members (probably more) of the team

Batman than Superman. The only reason I would put Batman over Superman is that he has something unique to offer.

Looking at past history of JLA being more versatility doesn't necessarily make you the most valuable because when big threats are presented who improve their game?yep Superman.

Not taking anything from the other JLA members they all have their moments but it's hard to match Superman/Batman's presence.

Most valuable is Bats, IMO. Not sure about least valuable.

I'd add Firestorm, personally.

I have yet to see a real reason why Kal is important here. It seems he's coasting on reputation. I realize he's a powerhouse, maybe the powerhouse of the group, but so are others on the squad. He doesn't have much else, unless someone really wants to take the stance that his aura of awesome would help the others more than Flash's speed, Bats' intelligence, MM's tp, etc.

With that said

MVP
Green Lantern/Bats. GL for the ring, Bats for his mind.
If you gave Bats a GL ring, he'd be the Justice League

LVP
Read what Digi said

Add on to team
Exiles Mimic

PR just got served, methinks.

facepalm

Zatanna. Magical PIS ftw!

ok, Superman is BY FAR the best powerhouse on JLA, or any team. How the hell would he be ranked beneath WW or GL (versatility my ass...they don't handle 1/10th the shit Superman has).

Superman takes care of business, he may not have telepathy or the ability to form gigantic (and useless) gloves and bats, but in the end of the day, he's the one saving the world and getting shit done. His resume shits on everyone else's.

As for most valuable, I'm having trouble deciding between Batman or Superman, although I might put Superman slightly ahead.

Flash and Wonder Woman round out my least valuable.
