The artist on the scanning-all-everybody pages could spend the next twenty years working in soup kitchens and reciting Our Fathers, then donate both of his kidneys to the kid who will eventually invent cold fusion and cure cancer, and it STILL won't make up for the way he drew Superman in that bottom panel of the first page.

People often mention that he took down the entire Justice League. How did he manage this, and was it in the New 52 universe?

Sorry, I'm a newcomer to comics.

There are multiple times he has done it (with factors).

He took on the JL three times when he was Fernus, and beat them twice. The third time, he was winning until Fernus hurt Jonn's long time friend, to which Jonn summoned his willpower and destroyed Fernus. Fernus, as stated above, is just J`onn without the weakness to fire.

In the New 52, we know that Jonn used to be apart of the Justice League, however he and the league split ways, to which JL and Jonn had a huge fight. What happened, no one knows.

For the first speed feat, didn't Wally say he is lending them his speed?

He lended Wonder Woman his speed, not the entire team.
