I just finished rereading the entire Giffen JLA/JLI run, and by next week I'm going to start on JLE/JLI. Other than Justice League Task Force and an annual or two I have the entire JLA/JLI/JLE era of Justice League (e-bay is a harsh mistress)

He would probably be looking for a change of pace, anyway. Plus, it turns out he's super-popular in Germany. No one knows why.

I like it, especially the inclusion of Elsqueevio.
Your line-up is pretty similar to the one I was thinking of. After giving it some thought, and trying to make it kind of different from yours...
Dancer
Manga Shoggoth (he can be on both teams at once)
Captain Courageous
Alcheman
Yo
dull thud
Sorceress
Sir Mumphrey - not always active on the field team, more of an advisory member
ManMan - Not an active member, but the team handyman (kind of like Kilowog was, only with less effectiveness and more comedy)
