Creation

Prior to release, Justice League United was originally going to be the latest volume of Justice League of America retitled "Justice League of Canada" following the events of Forever Evil, and as such, creator Jeff Lemire wanted to create a new character that represented the native people of Canada, his home country. In order to make sure he depicted Cree culture faithfully and with respect, Lemire took many trips to the Cree community of Moose Factory where he'd teach art classes to many of the children, while getting their input on what they'd like to see in a superhero who represented their culture. In the end, both Equinox's appearance and seasonal power set were heavily influenced by what Lemire learned from the Cree people in Moose Factory.
