Post-Zero Hour Reading Order:
Following the conclusion of the Justice League International era, the team underwent a transition leading up to Grant Morrison’s run after the events of Zero Hour. The JLI disbanded, making way for a new lineup that consisted of classic heroes such as Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, The Flash, Green Lantern, and Aquaman, along with some new additions. Grant Morrison’s run introduced a more cosmic and surreal approach, exploring intricate storylines and introducing innovative concepts that expanded the scope of the Justice League’s adventures. This shift in tone and storytelling paved the way for a dynamic and visionary era of the Justice League.
