Justice League of America #52

In "Missing in Action — 5 Justice Leaguers!", the Justice League of America faces a mystery when five of their members fail to respond to a critical emergency call. Written by Gardner Fox and illustrated by Mike Sekowsky, with inks by Sid Greene and letters by Gaspar Saladino, this 1967 issue unfolds as Snapper Carr recounts the surprising, individual reasons each hero gave for their absence — each tale a self-contained adventure hinting at deeper stakes. The cover, by Mike Sekowsky and Joe Giella, captures the team’s tension and urgency.
