“Trial by Fire, Part Four”

In "Trial by Fire, Part Four," Batman races against time to stop The Burning—now in control of the Martian Manhunter's body—by convincing Plastic Man to reclaim his powers, even though Plas has chosen to live a quiet life with his son and has erased all memory of his past as a hero. Written by Joe Kelly and brought to life by Doug Mahnke’s dynamic art, Tom Nguyen’s inks, David Baron’s colors, and Ken Lopez’s crisp lettering, this pivotal JLA issue finds the team at a breaking point, with one unlikely hero holding the key to salvation. The cover by Doug Mahnke and Tom Nguyen captures the tension perfectly.
