Great Scott! They did it!
Superman tells the gathered JSA how Batman's old associate Dr. Nichols gave him Batman's diary and other evidence that accuses the Justice Society of secretly fighting for the Nazi cause from the group's formation in November 1940 through the end of the war, and of covering it up since then. But their meeting is interrupted when the JSA members are taken into custody, pending a congressional investigation.

Rich Morrissey credited as "consultant."

Prof. Nichols sent Batman and Robin through time via hypnosis several times from 1944 through 1963. This part briefly covers the JSA's entire history from their origin in DC Special (DC, 1975 series) #29 through Batman's death, though in the slanted way it is presented in Batman's diary.

While in the shadow of the huge waiting 'copter, The Huntress' virtual step-brother --the man who was once Bruce Wayne's ward -- seethes with an impotent rage which threatens to tear him apart from within.
The Huntress takes on the defense of the JSA as attorney Helena Wayne. While she has the heroes tell their version of their first case, Dick Grayson, who is to be special legal counsel for the prosecution, meets his star witness, the Wizard.
