Silver Age: Justice League of America

    (DC, 2000)
™ and ©2000 DC Comics

In DC’s Summer 2000 Silver Age event, the bodies of the Justice League of America have been taken over by the minds of their greatest villains (and yes, the heroes are likewise trapped in the villains’ bodies). As they go on assorted rampages, many of the greatest, if now forgotten, heroes of the Silver Age return to help protect Earth from its enemies. In this adventure, we are treated once more to the original super-team of the Silver Age—the Challengers of the Unknown (it’s true: their first appearance in Showcase predates the arrival of the Justice League and even Marvel’s Fantastic Four). In this adventure, Red, Prof, Rocky and Ace, those rough-and-ready he-men in the yellow jump-suits, face off against the time-bending villain Chronos, who seems intent on stealing a time pool from Ivy University. What they don’t realize is that the mind of the Atom resides within Chronos’ body and they are actually thwarting the hero’s plan to save the universe. Will the Challs realize the truth in (wait for it) time?
