they had to battle the Big Guys!
So let’s give a big ol’ cheesy Silver Age

The Top 8 Things NOT to
Do at Your Super-Team Tryout
Do at Your Super-Team Tryout
8> Ask if they have anything against interoffice relationships, then ask Batman a bunch of follow-up questions about whether it would be “too weird” if you were to ask Nightwing out.
7> As tempting as her costume may make it, follow the word “Wonder” with anything but “Woman.”
6> Brag that your power is “invulnerability to consistent plot logic.”
5> Confide to the interviewer that someone stole your secret identity and has ruined your credit.
4> Show your ability to rescue people from a burning building… by setting several on fire.
3> “I had no idea you could get your finger that far up your nose. *Next!*”
2> “And this is our pet monkey, Gleek.”
and the Number 1 Thing NOT to Do at Your Super-Team Tryout…
1> Do whatever the hell you want! The Avengers will let anyone in… twice.
