In the animated series which premiered in 2001, DC Comics most iconic heroes Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, The Flash, Green Lantern, Hawkwoman (Hawkgirl) and Martian Manhunter teaming up for the first time to stop an alien invasion in the three part episode Secret Origins. This is one of my favorite shows, it's so well-written and you got see so many cool stories and characters. The show would eventually expand and become Justice League Unlimited which introduced even more amazing characters and stories.
Also on this day was the 2017 release of the Justice League movie which also had Wonder Woman, Batman, Superman, Cyborg, Flash and Aquaman teaming up to stop another alien threat, Steppenwolf and his army of Parademons who was trying to take over the world. I know this theatrical version of the movie was not as well received by fans but I still really like it. The movie had a concise story, good characterization and a lot of action with a good blend of humor. In another post, I wrote about how much I loved the movie (along with a few things I didn't like). It's not a bad movie but I think maybe a lot fans who didn't like it were looking for something similar to the cinematic feel of Man of Steel and Batman v Superman which is now available with the Zack Snyder Justice League movie.
