JSA #60

Anatomy of a Murder" announces this 2004 chapter of DC's Justice Society series with striking unease — a chalk outline and a pool of blood dominate the foreground while a group of JSA members, including a figure kneeling to examine the grim scene, stand illuminated against a sickly green glow, all framed by massive, looming hands. Ethan Van Sciver's cover work sets a genuinely dark, investigative tone that feels more crime thriller than superhero adventure. With Geoff Johns scripting and art from Don Kramer and Tom Mandrake, "Redemption Lost, Part I" promises a story with real weight behind it.
