Seven Soldiers of Victory - Definition and Overview

The Seven Soldiers of Victory (also known as Law's Legionaires) is a team of comic book superheroes in the DC Comics universe. They first appeared in Leading Comics #1 (Winter, 1941-1942).

Team members

It may be worth noting that, unlike almost every other superhero team, this one included two sidekicks as members. (Stripesy was that rarity, an adult sidekick to a "kid" lead character.) On the other hand, the Crimson Avenger's sidekick Wing also took part in the team's adventures, and was in every other way an "eighth Soldier," but was never considered a member of the team.

In 2005, writer Grant Morrison launched a retooled version of the Seven Soldiers in what he terms a "megaseries" of seven interrelated miniseries and two bookend titles. While many members of this new team are long-running DC Universe superheroes, none were affiliated with the previous incarnation of the team.
