☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "The Lightning Saga, Chapter One: Lightning Lad," the Justice League of America and the Justice Society of America converge on Suicide Swamp to rescue Triplicate Girl, the last missing Legionnaire from the 21st century, unaware that the Secret Society’s old base is now a living trap. As Computo awakens and strikes, Superman recognizes the eerie déjà vu—but the real mission is already underway, with the Legion using the chaos to move forward unseen. Written by Geoff Johns and illustrated by Dale Eaglesham with stunning contributions from Alex Ross on both art and cover, this issue blends classic team dynamics with a haunting, layered mystery.
In "The Lightning Saga, Chapter One: Lightning Lad," the Justice League and Justice Society team up for a training exercise that quickly turns into a mystery when Batman and Black Lightning uncover a startling connection: Starman, a new JSA recruit, is actually a lost member of the Legion of Super-Heroes—along with four others mysteriously stranded in the present. With the fate of these missing Legionnaires hanging in the balance, Black Canary and Power Girl lead a mission to split the combined heroes into smaller teams, each tasked with tracking down the missing Legionnaires before time runs out.
In "The Lightning Saga, Chapter Two: Dreams and Fire," a fractured team of JSA and JLA heroes splits to confront twin mysteries: one chasing a corrupted Dream Girl through the halls of Arkham Asylum, the other uncovering the shocking presence of Wildfire at Superman’s fortress, where two Legion flight ring signals pulse in eerie unison. The story unfolds with sharp tension and shifting loyalties, as the heroes race to untangle a mystery that stretches from Gotham’s darkest asylum to the heart of the Man of Steel’s sanctuary.
In "The Lightning Saga, Chapter Three: Suicide," the Justice League of America splits into two teams to track down time-lost Legionnaires across the DC Universe—Wildcat, Vixen, Flash, and Green Lantern head to Gorilla City in search of Timber Wolf, while Hawkman, Hawkgirl, Power Girl, and Red Arrow travel to Thanagar to find Dawnstar. Back at base, Black Canary and Mr. Terrific notice a strange pattern: each Legionnaire carries a 31st-century lightning rod, but their investigation stalls when six of the seven Legionnaires mysteriously gather to discuss why they’ve come to the 21st century.
In "The Lightning Saga, Chapter Four: Three Worlds," Superman shares the Legion of Super-Heroes' urgent mission with the JSA and JLA as the Legion races toward Suicide Swamp to rescue the last missing Legionnaire trapped in a 21st-century Secret Society base. When a joint JSA-JLA team arrives first, they find Triplicate Girl—but as the full force converges, the abandoned headquarters awakens, and Computo strikes, killing one of her bodies. Superman recognizes the scene as a familiar trap, realizing they’re caught in an illusion, while the Legion quietly moves ahead to fulfill their true purpose.
In the final chapter of "The Lightning Saga," the Legion of Super-Heroes channels their power across time and space, each raising a lightning rod at a pivotal site as the JLA and JSA watch in helpless awe. When a single sacrifice ignites a storm of fate, Karate Kid’s lightning brings Wally West and his family back from beyond—though the cost and the true nature of the hero’s journey remain shrouded in mystery.
In a poignant exploration of legacy and time, "Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow" traces the evolving bond between Superman, Wonder Woman, and Batman across moments past and future, revealing how their roles in the Justice League of America have shaped the team’s identity. As memories and possible futures unfold, the trio confronts the weight of their history—and the choice to reunite in the present.
