* WhatCouldHaveBeen: The Morrison series started production as an AlternateCompanyEquivalent to ComicBook/TheAvengers, specifically the idea of a bunch of B-list characters all coming together. There's still some clear remnants of it in the lineup (Guardian to Captain America, Zatanna to Scarlet Witch, Mr. Miracle to Thor, The Spider to Hawkeye). Also, Klarion's role would originally have been filled by Etrigan (with him being a counterpart of the Hulk), Frankenstein would have been Martian Manhunter (Vision), and Zatanna would have been Enchantress. ComicBook/TheAtom (Ant-Man) was planned to be a member, though whether it'd be Ray Palmer or a LegacyCharacter (Morrison would go on to co-create Ryan Choi), and whether it was Bulleteer or Shining Knight who replaced him, is uncertain.
** Altough it probably wasn't planned, Frankenstein can qualify as a Hulk stand-in, being a muscular monster with a weird skin color.

Moved Golden Age team to Trivia.Seven Solders Of Victory


* FollowTheLeader: The Golden Age team was created by Mort Weisinger and Mort Meskin when they saw how successful the Justice Society had been.
* MilestoneCelebration: The return of the original Seven Soldiers was in ''ComicBook/JusticeLeagueOfAmerica #100''.



* WhatCouldHaveBeen: {{Subverted|Trope}} after ''thirty years'' -- a Seven Soldiers story for Leading Comics #15 where the team travel through a "Land of Magic" was written, but the comic book itself ended up being completely retooled into a FunnyAnimal comic. In 1975, DC discovered the script and produced the story for Adventure Comics #438-443. [[http://goodcomics.comicbookresources.com/2010/02/18/comic-book-legends-revealed-248/ Details here.]]
