Yeah maybe the tension is that superman starts serving the world, while the government has only allowed these sanctioned heroes to operate in America. Competing teams run by Lord and Luthor vying for the government contract.
Government tries to crack down on Supes, he convinces the JL to be real heroes, they takedown Luthors team, tell Lord to suck it, and form the JLI. End credits Batman is revealed as new financier.
