The Messiah stuff is only tenable in a very particular (and hokey) context. To be "saved" you need a lot of 'spiritual apriori'...
Within a comic universe peopled by as diverse a bunch as DC have, there's no meaning to having a saviour/messiah... especially one who spends most of his time on one particular planet fighting its criminal element.
well messiah as in he's the go to guy when the team is beaten. I Disagree with jla in part,legion seems more diverse, they are an extension of supermans power:
flash=supes speed
wonder woman=supes strength,flight
martian manhunter=supes laser,flight,strenght
powergirl=obviously
supergirl=obviously
aquaman=supes speed in water They only have minor differances that set them apart. seeing how superman is the over all balanced one of those powers
The only ones truly unique are green arrow, green lantern and batman. and imo they're meh.
Take xmen or fantastic 4 each member powers and abilities set them apart and they work for a balanced unique team. jla as stated are just extentions of supermans power with only minor difference/weapons to differentiate between them.
