The Super-Buddies – or- Formerly known as a good idea
Max had been absent from the Chronicles for some time when he resurfaced with a brand new enterprise. The Justice League International had been about helping people world-wide, but this time Max was going to organise a group that could help people on a neighbourhood level. His new dream was of accessible heroes who were free from corporate or political interests and were instead backed by a not for-profit organisation based in a strip mall in the New York suburbs. Max needed help to realise this dream so he rescued L-Ron, Manga Khan’s former lackey, from his dead-end burger-flipping job and set about recruiting their old JLI friends to his new cause.
