who were prominent DC teens?
The Legion. I've never read it, but other people describe it as more or less like highschool.
Yes. Lucky for you, people may be in danger.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I understand each word, but in relation to Scott Summers they make no sense
Ayup.

I've only read the ones with Superboy, and they SUCK. In a cheesy retro way, but they're pretty bad.
Whining?
Upgrade.

an overblown libretto and a sumptuous score/ could never contain the contradictions I adore
The Legion. I've never read it, but other people describe it as more or less like highschool.
Well, yes, but IN SPACE! And FROM THE FUTURE!
And COMPLETELY RIDICULOUS, but still.
I found a few recent JLAs online (bless you, filesharing clients, and all who sail in you) that look kinda neat. Confusing, because I only have ever third issue or so from what appear to be at least four different story arcs, but still interesting. There's a Nightwing bit in one that about killed me, and I no longer consider Plastic Man a complete joke of a superhero.

Well, you have to cut Plas some slack. His trip to the DC-verse was longer and stranger than most.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Occasionally. The early stories certainly. Later in the original run it was mentioned that they were in their twenties, but still looked like teens and were considered youths because the life span in the thirtieth century is just much longer than now. They've had their continuity wrecked four times since then, so it's possible that's changed.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

Nightwing's brief stint as leader of the JLA (while most of the real team was dead) definitely had its moments.

In the right hands, Plastic Man's wonderful. A while back, in JLA, they had an excellent story with Plas and Batman, where Bats has to help pull Plas' illigitimate son--heretofore unrevealed and unaware of who his father is-out of a gang. Good stuff.

Another Joe Kelly piece, if I recall. I'll also take this opportunity to say that his substitute JLA ruled like a very straight and flat piece of wood with lines on it at regular intervals. Major Disaster, baby.

Varying intervals?
What a horrible ruler.
Now if it was consistent intervals, well, that would be a different story...

Did anyone read Suicide Squad? I admit my fondness for series like Strikeforce Morituri and Atari Force were a bit ... odd, but I can't work out of Suicide Squad was good.
Firestorm! He was DC and whined!
