Justice League of America #250

In "The Return of the Justice League of America," the iconic team is pulled back together when an alien threat drains their life energies—only to be stopped by a reunited Superman, Batman, Green Lantern, Green Arrow, and Black Canary. With Batman stepping back into leadership, the JLA faces renewed challenges as Zatanna is captured by a shadowy cult and a transformed Despero vows revenge. Written by Gerry Conway and illustrated by Luke McDonnell, with inks by Bill Wray, colors by Gene D'Angelo, and letters by Albert DeGuzman, this pivotal 1986 issue sees the team’s legacy rekindled—both in the field and in the shadows. The cover, by Luke McDonnell and Bill Wray, captures the moment of their return.
