Every existing member of both current teams are front and center..

I know old school class team of the Avengers and the Justice League big 7 , the League was usually that more powerful of the 2...

But now, have the scale, landscape of the way we looked at them 2 team is about to change, no?

I closed this originally because it was a question thread and had too many characters. It was brought to my attention that I closed it before anybody responded. I'll leave this thread open for a day.

What Bada said is true. You're talking about hundreds of characters. There's no way to be sure either way.

Unless we're talking strictly DCnU, in which case the answer is self-evident.

Supermex
Thanks Bada..


Yes I was talking strictly Dcnu Justice League Team
and the Avengers Now Rosters..

There's the
Avengers main team
Uncanny Avengers
Ilumanti Avengers Team
Secret Avengers
Mighty Avengers.. Luke Cage's New team in september
I think thats it right?

janus77
Too many Avengers rosters nowadays. They need to thin their numbers.

Stand them all in a line, let Hulk go and punch each one in the face (once, no point killing them). Whoever retains consciousness stays an Avenger, the rest go join Guardians of The Galaxy.

So the jla and justice league dark?

Obviously Avengers overall has a LOT more members and is therefore more powerful that JL in the DCNu

Golgo13
Jla
Jl
Jld
Jli
And soon to be jl 3000

Both teams have a lot of members.rE

Based
Justice League International got canned..
JLD really doesn't have a power house and JLA only has the Martian. I think the Teen Titans are actually better than both of the wannabe JLs but I digress.

Avengers still outnumber the JLs by quite a few..

Golgo13
Yeah, but both jl and jld has had s bunch of reserves. Andrew, deamp thing, black lightning, blue devil, etc...

More powerful but all of them together gets punch 100000x the speed of light before captain america can say any coherent word.

In all seriousness, mn avengers got the superior numbers and seemingly more heroes leaning to the side of cosmics. They tip the balance for now.

If we count the past JL teams from the DCnU, it's about even from what I have seen of Marvel NOW. Cyborg just called upon a bunch of reserves in the Atlantis arc.

^ About even? I assume we're comparing the Avengers World roster to the expanded current Justice League roster.

But even then, it took the entire 1st expansion Avengers roster just to knock Starbrand over. When he was holding back. And Starbrand wasn't even hurt. And this is all before he began controlling and refining his power(s) aboard Sol's Hammer.

With Starbrand's recruitment as part of the 2nd expansion wave, along with Nightmask, Ex Nihilo and Abyss, I don't think this is even close.

Yeah, I wasn't counting them. Hasn't Phantom Stranger and Question been working with the JLD/JLA? stick out tongue

Golgo13
Ok, since the OP was using the splinter teams, I'll list the ones for the Justice League franchise that has appeared since the DCnU began.

JLA/JL:
Superman
Green Lantern (Hal)
Flash (Barry)
Aquaman
Batman
Wonder Woman
Cyborg
Martian Manhunter
Arthur Light
Billy Batson
Black Canary
Black Lightning
Blue Devil
Catwoman
Elemental Woman
Firestorm (Jason/Ronnie)
Green Arrow
Hawkman
Katana
Atom (Rhonda)
Green Lantern (Simon)
Stargirl
Steve Trevor
Vibe

The Justice League is also backed up by ARGUS, which houses a shit load of mystic and technological artifacts. And soon to be located in the 4th World, with New God tech.

Justice League Dark:
Amethyst
Andrew Bennett
Black Orchid
Deadman
Doctor Mist
Enchantress
Frankenstein
John Constantine
Madame Xanadu
Mindwarp
Shade

Zatanna

And if you want to include the last splinter team, Justice League International.
August General In Iron
Batwing
Godiva
Guy Gardner
OMAC/Brother Eye
Olympian
Rocket Red
Vixen

bluewaterrider
Avengers.

Unless Wondy enters her "ultra" mode.

In which case, still Avengers, but now it's an event-level fight.

pym-ftw
Probably.

LeonBuco666
I want to say avengers, but im gonna say justice league due to the fact that DC, their characters have always been typically more powerful, and marvel have always had more relate-able characters imo, both brilliant tho

deathlife
At the moment, Avengers.

Starbrand, Ex-Nihilo, Captain Universe tip the balance IMO.

You mean to tell me you take issue with an unbalanced thread? That's ironic considering the back catalog of onesided spite threads you've created. evil face

As though including the Justice League splinter teams matters, anyway. It's still DCnU only, and there is a vast power, history and feat discrepancy between the two continuities at this point.

They're not one-sided. I've always asked for reasoning and most of the time people just stamp DC wins, because DC is more powerful. I tend not to overrate DC like some people. stick out tongue

If Constantine gets his wish, Phantom Stranger will be joining Justice League Dark, along with Zauriel and Nightmare Nurse.

Isn't this just the Avengers as in the 10-15 members of the main avengers lineup against the main lineup of just the JL? No JLI, Dark or other teams? If that's the case then yes, Avengers are packing way more power right now.

The OP included the splinter teams and in the wake of Forever Evil, new Justice League teams are forming like the one I posted above. Phantom Stranger (if indeed he is drafted in the JLD) tips the scales, IMO.

I've done a break down and it's pretty even if you include ALL the members that Cyborg drafted in the Atlantis war. And we're basically getting a new Justice League Dark team along with Luthor's.

Nothing in the current Avengers team that can stand up to Phantom Stranger or Swamp Thing in his prime.

Probably? That's a big thing with the DCnU these days is magic, magic, magic. Avengers best bet against the likes of DCNU's top mystic members is Starbrand, Ex Nihilo, or Thor.

Without prep, I wouldn't give Strange over the likes of Phantom Stranger who wrestled with the Spectre. And according to GOD could have destroyed all of creation.

Let's see how powerful Zauriel is, but so far it seems he can provide a lot of mystic muscle seeing he's a friggen angel from heaven and one of God's top servants.

Not in the DCnU. At least so far. Anyway, Avengers is going to have a future team with Cage or has already came out, not sure. Justice League will also have a few and it will be interesting who the lineups will be.

Pretty sure only reason why he helped was Frankenstein vouched for Constantine.

ridiculously powerful people aside (captainn universe) avengers seem to pack too many heavy hitters currently:

Thor
Hyperion
Hulk
Blue Marvel (mighty avengers)
Dr Strange
Starbrand
Nightmask
Ex Nihlo

Ms Marvel seamingly in Binary levels in the next avengers book

The only member that I'm using that's not a member yet is Stranger. Everyone else has been a member at one point in the DCnU. And I will bumb this thread once JL Canada and the new team of Justice League Dark comes out in a couple months, which isn't far off. stick out tongue

The only thing the Avengers have going on for them is Reed with prep.

Well he's the most powerful of the lot. Let's see if he's going to use this power unlike his pre DCnU incarnation. PS never made a great vs forum material.
In any case I should also add Monica Rambeau (one of my favorite characters - happy to have her back) and Scarlet Witch in the list.
I am not really a fan of what Marvel is doing right now (making every active hero an Avenger) but still...

He already has. He has his own series now and his best feat is probably going toe to toe with the Spectre. God I believe said that if the fight were to rage on, it would have destroyed all of creation. AKA the omniverse.

Can't argue with that. If the lineup reflects the pic above the team shouldn't lose one battle. Swamp Thing, Stranger, and Zauriel? Team shouldn't loose a battle, but they are fighting the embodiment of evil itself.

I think he is one of those I can do anything but only if God wills it type characters.

So in some stories he will have the power to erase the PS, in other's a mugger with a brick will knock him out.

At the end of PS 11, he erased him from history.

Justice League Dark's lineup is about to become beastly. It's members will surpass the main JL and Avengers.
