Though not accurate, the idea of the article is great. I love the JSA, and I was totally looking into something similar the other day. I'd consider the Unleashed experienced Dr. Fate before the Origins one, though. It's not as diverse, but it's less points and higher DV, which team's TA is all about.
Well, thanks for the wiggle room.
I did consider the Unleashed E Dr. Fate big time...the support powers on the LE sold me, though.

^As I said, I stopped reading the article after I saw the mistakes up front. It was that major to me, so I can't give you any more feedback.
If you've been reading JSA since the 80s (as have I, since 1986 when I was 3), I'm really surprised that you haven't picked up on the difference between Atom and Atom-Smasher. It's only mentioned in nearly every issue with the latter character, and has been a somewhat notable plot point in the recent Thy Kingdom Come storyline and Blackest Night: JSA. You might actually try reading the dialogue that goes along with the pretty pictures.
I'm fully aware that comment makes me sound like a jackass. Sorry to ruffle your plumage there, lancelot, but right now, I'm fine with that.

Precisely. Based on this, any chance this can be removed from the front page until it gets revised? Were I someone who was into the JSA and new to heroclix, and this was my first exposure to HCR, I'd just roll my eyes and go elsewhere on the 'net.
Team post has been edited to reflect that Atom IS NOT Atom Smasher and there is no suitable replacement for Atom.
Team is still 900 points.

I just think you could've gone a bit better than "EPIC FAIL" to begin with. Some constructive feedback goes a long way helping someone understand a certain point.
YOU try and making an article for all to enjoy. I'd love to see that and give you some feedback, if any. I know I wouldn't be going "EPIC FAIL" on you.

Dudes, is it really that BIG of a deal that I got ONE character wrong?
Oh, well, when it comes to comic book fanboys, the answer is YES, I forget.
Lets see. One character wrong and one character missing who is listed as a team member on the cover.
A good try at the article. I will admit I dont read all of your team articles (sorry), just the ones of my favorite teams. But this one is still good ever with a few mistakes.
Lancelot, you got two of them wrong, besides calling them Silver Age. You got the wrogn Atom, and Atom Smasher is a (relatively) modern character, debuting in the 80's and being a present-time character, not a WWII character. the rough equivilent is if you listed Cable as a member of the Invaders, a silver-age team.
Frankly I felt not only was I giving constructive advice - and initially I only gave a heads-up not even a criticism - but also made sure to compliment as well. I didn't feel that was harsh but if that's what you feel is happening I'll take that into consideration.

and I'll leave it to Mr_JTR and CustomCreator to point out the other mistakes!
BTW, among my numerous JSA and ISA customs I have a custom Al Pratt (JSA) Atom who is on a R Wildcat base - works pretty well!
After all the heat the OP took I wanted to go back to my first post on this thread and make sure it didn't spark the backlash!
If in any way it did, I apologize!
And if for nothing other than posting the iconic cover of the All-Star that started it all (as far as super groups are concerned) I want to send you a big THANK YOU!!!!
Fanboys tend to be a tough audience at best, and even with the honest mistakes the intention of bringing some Golden Age love, and the act of posting that beloved cover here on the 'realms is certainly deserving of gratitude!
During my period of recovery I really need to learn to take and post pix on this site! My customs (as well as some of the "real" versions!) allow me to build any JSA and Injustice Society teams I want! Pix of the Fiddler, original Icicle, Wizard and others taking on a JSA team including the original MR Terrific, Atom and others would make other Golden Age fans smile!!!
Je Suis Charlie!

Yes, the JSA Atom is a MUST have for this team and unfortunatelly he is not on clix. Atom Smasher, former Nuklon from Infinity Inc don't look like a good sustitute for him.
Mmm I think is "brave" that you did this article without know deep about this team. and I will be always happy to see comic acurates articles because I love comic acurate teams! but.. yes, you have to study deeper and better before do it about a team that you don't know in deep.
I know it could be "boring" "study" the origins of a team you don't know very well, so instead of that I would recommend that you do acurate teams with Comic book teams you DO know and Love, in that way will be even more fun for you, and your love for that team will show on the article for sure.
