I too hope for him to build a horn for opening portals. It's actually important that he does.

Think about it. The Light has Klarion who can teleport. Bialya and Intergang both get Apokolyptic technology through boom tubes. I don't think it'll be long until they get the means to actually use boom tubes themselves.

The Justice League and The Team only have Zeta-Beams which rely on machines at both ends and can be disrupted by bad weather such as the giant blizzard caused by the ice machines. This makes them much less mobile. Sure the heroes have individual means of getting places (flight, super-speed, bio-ship) but they aren't nearly as fast as instant portals and can't mobilize at a large scale. Though keep in mind I don't know if Zatanna and Doctor Fate can teleport in this series.
