“Trial by Fire, Part Two”

In "Trial by Fire, Part Two," the Justice League turns to J'onn J'onzz's telepathy to uncover a mysterious shift among the world's supervillains, as Superman grows wary of Scorch—once a key ally in helping J'onn overcome his fire vulnerability. Written by Joe Kelly and brought to life by Doug Mahnke’s dynamic art, with inks by Tom Nguyen, colors by David Baron, and letters by Ken Lopez, this 2003 issue deepens the tension with a cover by Mahnke and Nguyen that captures the escalating stakes.
