Few are as dedicated as the Man of Steel; he'll keep fighting until he can't anymore. Even if it's just to save one person, Superman will give his all.
Black Canary
Street-level heroes are tough as nails, and several of them have their place in the Justice League. Black Canary doesn't have world-shaking powers. She has a sonic scream, but she's known for her martial arts prowess. Canary's just as good at cleaning up her home city of Seattle as she is battling massive threats with the Justice League.

Green Arrow
Green Arrow is an amazing hero. A master of one of humanity's most ancient weapons, Oliver Queen has dedicated himself to fighting evil at every level. His time with the Justice League highlighted his determination and grit. When the Justice League "died" fighting Pariah's Dark Army, Queen's tenacity was on full display.
Green Arrow hitchhiked to the House of Heroes because he wouldn't leave Black Canary's side. He then went with the combined Justice League and Justice League Incarnate to fight the Dark Army, the odds completely against him. He sacrificed his life to destroy Pariah's machinery, proving that he'll do anything in his fight against evil.
Batman
