The Legion of Doom is one of the most gloriously perfect concepts and names in all of comics. Whereas the Justice League represents the purest heroic ideal, the Legion of Doom (originating in the Super-Friends cartoon) is pure villain. Just watch these bad guys and gals wreak havoc during roll call!
Below you’ll find a complete guide to the (surprisingly sparse) array of villain team-ups under the banner of the Legion of Doom, Injustice League, or Society of Super-Villains. I’ve annotated which group name applies to the various series (LoD signifies Legion of Doom, for example), but in general, they’re groups of totally awesome DC Villains united in their efforts to thwart those pesky do-gooders.
