About this Collection

This collection brings together the complete 'The Demise of Justice' story arc from the 2021 Justice Society of America series, published by DC. The volume follows the classic superhero team as they face a catastrophic threat that tests their legacy and unity, with the narrative exploring the consequences of their past actions and the challenges of passing the torch to a new generation.

Fred Wallis, leading to a swift resolution before rushing back to Civic City. Written by John Broome and illustrated by Frank Giacoia, with a cover by Tom Lyle, this 2021 issue blends classic detective flair with the Justice Society’s signature blend of mystery and heroism.
