In "Chapter One: 'I Accuse!'", Superman confronts the Justice Society of America with shocking claims: evidence from Batman’s old associate Dr. Nichols suggests the JSA may have secretly aided the Nazis during World War II—accusations that shatter their legacy and plunge them into a crisis of trust. Written by Roy and Dann Thomas and illustrated by Rafael Kayanan, Rich Buckler, and Jerry Ordway, with inks by Alfredo Alcala and Bill Collins, and colors by Adrienne Roy, this pivotal 1985 issue sets a tense, high-stakes tone. Jerry Ordway’s cover captures the moment of confrontation, as the JSA faces arrest and a congressional investigation that threatens to unravel everything they’ve stood for.
