'''The Ultimen''' are a fictional [[superhero]] group featured in the [[animated]] series ''[[Justice League Unlimited]]''. Based on original characters from the ''[[Super Friends]]'', they are a group of young heroes who used their gifts to not only help people, but also to gain [[Mass media|media]] attention.

First appearing in the episode "Ultimatum", the Ultimen assisted the [[Justice_League|Justice League]] in saving an off-shore oil platform from a group of lava monsters.  Near the end of the fight, [[Wind Dragon]] created a cyclone of arctic wind that froze the remaining creatures solid, a power he had never displayed before (another nod to ''Super Friends'', as the "[[affirmative action]]" members seemed to manifest convenient new powers semi-regularly).  Concerned, but not willing to dwell on it, he turned his attention to the media, giving such a wholehearted speech that it even made Superman groan.  Though they were given the chance to join the Justice League, the Ultimen declined, (contracted; show full)
* Also conspicuous by his absence in "Ultimatum" was the only other "Affirmitave Action Hero" from ''Superfriends,'' [[El Dorado (superhero)|El Dorado]]. The shirtless Hispanic hero had an arsenal of superpowers that were vaguely defined at best (though, he often exhibited [[teleportation]] and illusionary powers), likely explaining his absence.
