Synopsis: Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman approach Wildcat, Green Lantern, and The Flash to request that they reactivate the Justice Society of America as a group to train heroes. The trio of JSAers consider who to include in the revived JSA and Damage, in a new costume, Cyclone, and a mysterious Starman are recruited. Green Lantern and The Flash also introduce Wildcat to a relative. Meanwhile, Mr. America trails a killer and ends up making a shocking entrance at JSA headquarters.

Disclose Notes: Page 9 references the covers of All Star Comics #3, All-Star Comics #58, and JSA #1. Maxine Hunkel's line "It's time to try...defying gravity" is a reference to a lyric from the musical Wicked. Despite her appearance on the cover, Maxine Hunkel has not yet chosen the codename or costume of Cyclone. Starman's dialogue references the two series Legion of Super-Heroes and 52. Alex Ross painted one of the panels of the final page.
