☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis collection presents the JLA storyline 'The Hypothetical Woman,' a 2008 DC Comics arc that explores a mysterious and powerful female figure who challenges the League's understanding of reality and morality. The story delves into themes of identity and sacrifice as the team confronts an enigmatic threat that tests their unity and principles.
In "Never Brought to Mind," the JLA finds themselves outmatched when General Tuzik, a fugitive dictator, evades capture and begins forging alliances with other despots to build a terrifying superhuman weapon. As the League investigates a strange, subtle form of mind control spreading through a quiet Oregon town, they uncover a pattern that feels eerily familiar—though the source remains hidden.
In "Blood Is Not Enough," the JLA faces a crisis when the Flash is quarantined after a suspected Starro infection, sparking global panic. As Wonder Woman races to help him, General Tuzik exploits the chaos, using the Key's technology to attack Santa Prisca and turn six commandos into weapons.
In "Salvage the Steel Heart," the Hypothetical Woman and General Tuzik resurrect six fallen commandos as superhuman champions, twisting their legacy into something new. Meanwhile, the JLA face a relentless assault in Santa Prisca, battling Chemo-inspired constructs and Tamaranean-style airships in a high-stakes test of strength and strategy.
In "The Politics of Heaven," General Tuzik's rise to power through the Starro virus and his enforcers, The Hypotheticals, threatens global stability as the Justice League races to prevent an all-out war. With Martian Manhunter's psychic link to the virus revealing a dire timeline, the League must act before its victims succumb—before the fate of Earth is decided in the shadows of a silent, spreading war.
When the JLA fights the Hypotheticals in China, a mutated Starro microbe reasserts control over the children of Three Sisters, Oregon—forcing Jo to confront a threat that’s both familiar and dangerously changed.
In "After the Fire!", the JLA faces a desperate turn when General Tuzik unleashes his final form, a metahuman transformed by alien tech and unstable potions. As the battle reaches its peak, Sybil’s sacrifice unlocks a long-hidden truth, setting the Hypotheticals on a path beyond this world. The story unfolds with quiet intensity, leaving the future uncertain and the cost of victory deeply felt.
