Stories

The Last Days of the Justice Society · 62 pages
While grieving for their dead and adjusting to the new single universe, the JSA are summoned by the Spectre. They journey to Asgard to stop Ragnarok from destroying the single Earth... a Ragnarok summoned by Hitler in 1945 while possessing the Spear of Destiny due to the Spectre's energies reaching backward in time to the Spear itself. The JSA (minus Power Girl, Dr. Fate, and Star Spangled Kid who are returned to the present by Fate) then merge with the Asgardian gods and fight a never-ending battle (like a moebius strip), thus thwarting Hitler's ultimate revenge vs the allies in 1945.
The Impossible Crimes · 1 pages
