Justice League Antarctica

Justice League Antarctica is a group of reformed super villains and G'nort, created by
Maxwell Lord. A decidedly less than professional team, they were mostly assigned to
Antarctica to keep them out of the JLI's way.
Origin
The Justice League Antarctica formed from Major Disaster's Injustice League, disbanded following their recent defeat by
the Justice League. Shortly thereafter, Major Disaster and Big Sir run into their former teammates in a New York City
unemployment office. Believing this was a sign, they reformed the group for a crime spree, attempting to steal a highly
valuable diamond. Once they arrive on the scene, they encounter a team of thieves who were already attempting to
steal the same diamond. A battle ensues, and the Injustice League is victorious, but are unable to steal the diamond
before the police arrive, and appear to have foiled a robbery.
The newspapers soon begin calling the injustice gang heroes, which leads Major Disaster to speak with Maxwell Lord.
Believing it best to keep the team close and out of trouble, he had them join the Antarctica branch of the Justice League,
placing the dog-like Green Lantern G'nort in charge of the team. G'nort, taking the position of team leader seriously, also
invites another member to the team, the Scarlet Skier.
While the rest of his team sits around the base, G'nort took it upon himself to regularly patrol Antarctica. G'nort finds a
building that had been filled with genetically altered killer penguins which had slaughtered the scientist's and broke free.
By chance this penguins attacked the arriving Scarlet Skier, who manged to get away and meet up with Big Sir, and
retreated back to the base. There, an arriving G'nort came to warn the team of the killer penguins. Once there, an
earthquake levels the base, trapping the team underground in one of G'norts Green Lantern's force bubble. The Justice
League Antarctica was soon rescued by the Justice League International. After this Maxwell Lord, deciding the branch
served no true purpose disbanding the team. But he did allow several members to remain reservists for the League, and
during a period when Maxwell Lord was in the hospital they served as his personal bodyguards.

Justice League Antarctica

History
The super-villain known as Major Disaster once gathered several like-minded criminals
in order to establish a counterstrike team for the newly internationalized Justice League.
Calling themselves the Injustice League, Disaster's team briefly engaged the JLI, but
was summarily defeated. The Injustice League disbanded, and each of the team
members went their separate ways.
A short time after the dissolution of the Injustice League, Major Disaster and Big Sir
encountered his former teammates at an unemployment office in New York City.
Inspired by this chance encounter, he convinced the others to regroup for one final
crime spree. They decided to steal the highly coveted Dooley Diamond from the
Metropolitan Museum of Sundries. When they arrived however, they discovered that a
team of terrorists had already arrived before them and were in the process of stealing the
diamond for themselves. The Injustice League sprang into action and defeated the
terrorists, but authorities arrived before they could steal the diamond for themselves.
By sheer luck, the newspapers treated them as heroes, citing that the allegedly reformed
villains were now working on the side of justice. This inspired Major Disaster even
further, and he pled his case to the Justice League International team liaison, Maxwell
Lord. Lord felt that it would be prudent to keep an eye on these inept characters, so he
invited them to join the team representing the Antarctica branch. Primarily, Lord felt
that this would make a great opportunity to give the resident team imbecile G'nort
something to do. He placed G'nort in charge of the team and set them off to Antarctica.

G'nort sent out an invitation for the team's eighth and final member the Scarlet Skier.
Due to G'nort's poor directions however, the Scarlet Skier didn't arrive at the team's new
headquarters until some time after they had already set up shop.
While the bulk of the team sat around their headquarters arguing amongst themselves,
G'nort took it upon himself to go on patrol. He found the abandoned ruins of a scientific
research station and learned that a pack of genetically altered killer penguins had broken
free of their cages and slaughtered the staff. He raced back to JLAnt headquarters,
whereupon he finally reunited with the Scarlet Skier. G'nort warned the team of what he
had discovered, but it was too late. The killer penguins converged on the Justice League
HQ.
Meanwhile, the leaders of both the American and European branches of the JLI learned
about what had been transpiring in Antarctica. They flew down there to lend a hand only
to find that an earthquake had completely leveled the facility. The former Injustice
League members were trapped below, while carnivorous penguins ravaged the
surrounding region. Fortunately, for the JLAnt, G'nort erected a protective green force
bubble, which kept the debris and rubble from crushing them. The JLI teams extracted
their disenfranchised colleagues from the mess and brought them back to the United
States.
Maxwell Lord reviewed the case file and decided that the Justice League Antarctica
branch served no true purpose, and disbanded them. Several of the team members
remained on the JL roster as reservists, and Major Disaster ultimately became a fullfledged member during the team's JLA years. During an event informally referred to as
"Breakdowns", several JLAnt members renewed their active status as Maxwell Lord's
personal bodyguards.
Other members of the team went on to join the third incarnation of the Suicide Squad,
only to lose their lives on the team's first mission. At present, the Justice League of
America does not maintain an international charter, and there is no interest in reestablishing the Justice League Antarctica branch.
