“The Price of Humanity”

In "The Price of Humanity," the Justice League faces a chilling threat as Professor Ivo unleashes an android army to seize individuals at the peak of physical perfection—including Black Canary—intent on siphoning their life force to heal his ruined face. Written by Cary Burkett and brought to life by Chuck Patton’s dynamic art, with inks by Romeo Tanghal and colors by Tony Tollin, this 1983 issue delivers a tense, body-horror-tinged showdown. Howard Bender’s cover, inked by Dick Giordano, captures the dread of the moment with striking precision.
