YMMV / Justice League Elite

• Harsher in Hindsight:
  • In JLA (1997) #90, Manitou Raven and his wife, Dawn, share a tender moment. Raven asking Dawn if she regrets coming to the future with him; Dawn assures him that she loves the future and has no regrets coming with him. Wonder Woman and Faith comment on the scene, with Faith saying that she must really love him for following him to the future. Then in Justice League Elite their marriage begins to fall apart, because of Raven's attention to work and the trials of the "Stony Path" keeping him from spending time with Dawn. Dawn grows close with Green Arrow and eventually starts an affair with him. Raven was angered, of course, but was too consumed by his work to confront her, while Dawn eventually regretted the affair and betraying Raven. But before the couple could truly reconcile, Raven died while taking the brunt of a bomb blast, leaving Dawn devastated.
  • A more bitter one, when Green Arrow and Dawn slowly grow closer before their affair. Dawn defends her relationship with Raven, saying that one day he'll save Green Arrow's life. Manitou Raven does save Green Arrow's life, by sacrificing his own, with him knowing about Green Arrow and Dawn's affair. Dawn was devastated by Raven's death and learning that he knew about the affair.
• Magnificent Bastard: Manchester Black's epitaph calls him the "World's Most Magnificent Bastard", but that's not so clearly displayed in this miniseries. Given that it's Vera writing it, it's possibly sarcastic.
• Nightmare Fuel:
  • Flash almost nearly runs himself literally to death. The effect is... not pretty.
  • Everything Manchester Black does to London is revolting.
• Squick: The sight of Menagerie "milking" one of her bugs is disgusting.
• Tear Jerker:
  • Manitou Raven's death, and Major Disaster's subsequent attempt to "even the score" by killing himself.
  • Cassandra's despair after Batman keeps her from helping her teammates. She gets better.
