Going with Earth 1, as they have more feats, not to mention, the wellspring of power they draw from (Earth 1) isn't getting destroyed.

No joke. JSA has not fared well IMO, from the reboot.

They're getting, but they could well save themselves. But the Furies have been acknowledging that E2 avatars are getting weaker due to the presence of Apokolips, which is damaging the earth pretty badly.

yeah and most replacements are poor copies or complete bastardizations of the originals (though I REALLY like the cold calculating rationalist Terry Sloane over the original).
Alan went from being a noble character who put everyone before himself (to the point when he thought he'd crossed the line he tried to destroy both himself and his ring because "noone should wield such power". To a smug pomoous ass who comes across as though he everyones better.
Jay who was super confident and even though JUST out of college was the first chairman of the JSA oversenior characters (except Al Pratt), was a wingy whinie self doubter for the first 7 to 8 issues.
Blah ........

Ew that sounds pretty bad.
One of the things i loved about DC was the history, the legacies, the respect from the new generation to what came before and the pride of the older generation at what they'd laid foundations for...

What did they do to LOSH? All I know is they appeared recently in Futures end but nothing else.

They are not even from main DCU now. The greatest team of them all is coming back in time to kill a CHILD in JLU? **** you DC.

Yeah that was kind of weird, though it could lead to an interesting storyline, COULD.

Considering that the child is going to become a world-devouring cosmic being...i don't see the problem.
I also couldn't help but associate Infinitus with Infinite Man. they're too much alike. In terms of appearance, power level, and well, their name.

Yeah, and it's not like all of the members want to kill him. Brainiac 5 is trying to find a solution.
Also, I believe Infinitus was called Infinite Man in the solicitations.

But Legion don't take a life and certainly not of a child. That's their greatest motto.

The Legion members have been violating the no-kill code since mid 1960s. Sure, they have the code, but it doesn't mean there aren't exceptions.
Consider the alternative: If the child does go on to become Infinitus, he'll become a monster who's going to destroy worlds killing billions of actually innocent children in the process.
So really, i don't see the problem. Besides, like Golgo mentioned, not all of them support that decision.

Its a slippery slope.
Is killing an innocent and living with that the rest of your life any less heroic than refusing to do so because its so wrong?
Namor did something along these lines recently. I think he was heroic for doing so.

They have? Brainy was kicked out of Legion because he supposedly killed time trapper. It's one of the most fundamental laws of Legion.
I don't believe in no win scenarios in my superhero comics. I'd read authority if I wanted that. There is ALWAYS another way.
