Thanks to the power of Google, I have now!
It reminds me of one of those reality TV shows with Z-list celebrities.
Hawkgirl? id they just pick a random animal and stick -girl on the end? ???
Amazo--bet he turned out to be quite disappointing.
J'onn J'onzz? So it's just "John Jones", basically, then?
And my favourite one: Ultra-Humanite!
A brilliant scientist who transplanted his over-sized brain into the body of an albino gorilla.

Apparently he is one of the "super villains."
The usual Justice League characters, besides Superman and Batman, include Wonder Woman, the Flash, Green Lantern, Aquaman, and J'onn J'onzz (who is green). Here's a website with more information
http://www.hyperborea.org/flash/jla.html
There are other DC characters listed on that page too, like "Nightwing" who was the "Robin" who hung out with Batman before he grew up.
Here's a website which describes an "interesting" supervillain team - Monsieur Mallah and the Brain - also DC creations

Formerly an uncivilized brute of an ape, brain took him under his wing and taught him to speak, to read philosophy, to play chess… and to fire a MACHINE GUN.
Hang on...it's no problem to teach a gorilla to talk, but it's absolutely amazing to teach it to shoot a gun?
Oh, well. I'm off to write a theme tune.
Monsieur Mallah,
What a fella,
An educated French gorilla.
And the Brain,
With no name,
Having no limbs must be a pain.

It's called Justice League Task Force, and it came out for the Sega Genesis.

Opinion on it seems to be split. I don't yet have it in my Genesis collection, so I can't comment on how well it plays.
edit: I almost forgot about Teen Titans Battle Blitz: http://www.cartoonnetwork.com/games/action/teentitans/battleblitz/

That is a weird picture. Looks like Superman let his hair grow.
(How do you cut superhair anyway? With kryptonite scissors?)
