Description
After the epic glory of DEATH BATTLE!: Starkiller vs. Shadow, while I work on other preludes, I thought I'd do something different and return to doing something that I... hadn't done in a while--fan casting. In particular, this time, I decided to do something for a series that I held dear to me... well, a FRANCHISE I hold dear to me... the DC Universe! And what better way to start things off than with the original seven of the Justice League, I say?
So, with the right opening to get you all in the mood, let's dive into this cast, shall we?

Is it just me, or are there two DC characters named Jon Jones? Martian Manhunter and the black Green Lantern.

The black Green Lantern was John STEWART.
No relation to Jon Stewart.

I prefer Bruce Willis' John McClane as Batman.

...This, my friend, however, is a voice cast.
Therefore, I only use VOICE ACTORS in these. No celebrities. No Hollywood actors, unless they have prominent voice-acting careers too (e.g. Clancy Brown, Keith David). This is merely the cast I would go with for a new animated adaptation of Justice League, and Troy Baker would be my Batman.
Live-action wise, I actually have a different preferred Batman.

Oh okay. In that case.
Paul Eiding (Grandpa Max Tennyson) as Batman.

...
Too old a voice, if you ask me, and I don't think it matches Batman's multiple "faces": the billionaire playboy Bruce Wayne, the tortured soul Bruce Wayne, the caring father Bruce Wayne, the fierce warrior Batman, the intelligent and skilled detective Batman, the fearless hero Batman... So many different aspects, but I don't think Paul Eiding is the right man to pull off all those aspects.
A character like Uncle Ben Parker is more along the lines of someone Paul Eiding should voice.

Just make it a bit more gruff. Look at how Michael Keaton turned out. Everybody freaked out once they first heard he was playing Bats. Nobody thought he could do it, but he pulled off my second favorite Batman ever. The first is Adam West's Batman.

But Paul Eiding is too OLD to play the Modern Batman. Commissioner Gordon, perhaps, but Bruce? Have to disagree.

What if they make another Batman Beyond series? He'd be perfect for Elderly Bruce.

He'd work better for an OLDER Bruce, perhaps, I concede... but not for the mainstream Batman.

Hmmm.... The voice actor of teenage Kevin 11 without the teen attitude?

Sounds pretty good.

Nolan North as Flash sort of just... came to me.
But thanks man!

Y'know, Troy actually DID voice Batman in the most recent "LEGO Batman" game, just a little FYI.
Anyhoo, some other DC characters I look forward to seeing you cast include...
Green Arrow
Blue Beetle/Jaime Reyes
Hawkgirl or Hawkman
Red Tornado
Black Canary
Steel (Don't worry, it's not the Shaq version)
Supergirl
Huntress
Wildcat
Bwana Beast
Captain Atom

I know. And it is part of the reason I picked him, but I also want to see what he would do with a take on Batman more akin to the Modern Age portrayal of him. Lego!Batman was more akin to the Silver/Bronze Ages, I noted.
Ironic you mention them... I already have some good castings for Gren Arrow, Steel, Supergirl and Wildcat! ^^

Looking forward to them.

Smokescreen!North's voice is perfect for the Flash.
So...Hal Jordan. Don't particularly care for John Stewart, I take it?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh no, I like John Stewart... but he wasn't an ACTUAL founder of the JL. He was a later addition.
'sides, I must admit, I do prefer Hal.
And yes... Nolan North's Smokescreen SCREAMED Flash for me.

Thanks!
Any casting in particular stand out as a favorite?
