In "Year One: Chapter Four," the Justice Society of America confronts rising threats as Doctor Fate urges Corrigan to embrace the Spectre’s power, while Wonder Woman, the Atom, Hawkman, and Hawkgirl face off against Satanna, Sportsmaster, and Cyclotron. As the Flash and Johnny Thunder close in on a mystery that pulls them into the larger conflict, Hourman and Sandman meet a new hero born from Starco’s experiments—while Alan ventures alone, driven by grief and a need for answers. Written by Jeff Lemire and illustrated by Gavin Guidry, with colors by Luis Guerrero and letters by Steve Wands, this issue deepens the team’s origins with emotional weight and escalating stakes. The cover by Dave Johnson captures the moment’s intensity with sharp, dynamic detail.
